Lady Antebellum and Halsey blew audiences away with their magical duet at the 2019 Country Music Association Awards on Wednesday (November 13).
The unlikely trio delivered the country/pop mashup we didn't know we needed, performing a beautiful rendition of Lady A's "What If I Never Get Over You" and Halsey's "Graveyard." Despite their differing genres, the artists delivered a flawless mashup of their hits, which brought the Bridgestone Arena audience to its feet for one of the few standing ovations of the night.
Fans gushed about the epic performance on Twitter, writing "THIS LADY ANTEBELLUM AND HALSEY DUET IS EVERYTHING I HAVE CHILLS." While another fan begged for the trio to actually create a record together. "Halsey + lady antebellum .... get in the studio now please," the Twitter user wrote. And a third fan simply tweeted, "You could try to find a better pairing but you would fail miserably. That was perfection."
For the unforgettable performance, Halsey hit the CMA stage in an extremely chic and fitted, blush pantsuit. For Lady A’s Hillary Scott's look, she took a page out of the pop star's fashion book, also wearing a blush, satin blazer, but over an all-black outfit. Charles Kelley, however, went a totally different direction for his outfit, wearing a navy blue suit and a white button-down.
I'm gonna need a downloadable version of that 'Graveyard' rendition ASAP! 😍
