Lainey Wilson took home five trophies including entertainer of the year Wednesday night at the Country Music Association Awards.
The 31-year-old Louisiana singer was the undisputed star of the night at Nashville's Bridgestone Arena, where she also was named female vocalist of the year, won album of the year for "Bell Bottom Country" and Wilson gave a fiery rendition of her song "Wildflowers and Wild Horses" that looked like it came from a classic Hollywood Western.
"This is all I've ever wanted to do, it's the only thing I know how to do." Wilson said through tears as she accepted entertainer of the year. "It finally feels like country music is starting to love me back."
