Kick Those Boots Up
Less than a month after being inducted into the Grand Ole Opry, Lauren Alaina kicked off her Top of the World tour with special guest Spencer Crandall on Feb. 24.
Best of the Best
During every tour stop, Lauren hopes to honor hometown heroes and treat them to a VIP experience. "When I'm on the road, these people are coming to see me, but I'm just as much coming to see them," she shared. "To recognize and lift up someone that truly deserves it is really exciting for me and I can't wait. That's probably going to be the best part of the tour is when I get to highlight these women who are so deserving."
Beep Beep
If you're curious to know what the inside of Lauren's tour bus looks like, wonder no more. "I always have to have a pretty big closet in the back because I like to have the tour clothes back there," she said. "I'm gonna have a closet full of Maurices clothing."
Survey Says...
When the drive is long, Lauren and the band love to have fun by watching new episodes of Family Feud. "I travel on the bus with the band and we're just a big old family out there," she said. "And there's a whole lot of movie watching and shenanigans happening."
One Final Step
Before hitting the stage, there are a few things Lauren must attend to. "I have a fun little ritual with my team," she teased. "I have a secret handshake with everyone on the team. We individually do our secret handshake like we're in middle school and then we have a group prayer and we make a toast."
Star of the Show
If there's one moment to pick out in the show that Lauren cherishes the most, it has to be when everyone in the crowd holds up their phones during "Road Less Traveled."
"That song is my baby. It's my first No. 1," she explained. "It's all about female empowerment. And just to bring everybody together for that moment and have those lights lit up as a nod to my career and what I want to say as an artist is everything for me."
