At the 2025 American Music Awards on May 26 at the Fontainebleau in Las Vegas, country superstar Lainey Wilson delivered an electrifying moment by debuting her new single, “Somewhere Over Laredo.” Taking to the stage in an impeccably styled all‑white outfit, she added a distinctive twist to her performance by donning a cowboy hat and a flowing cape that danced with every note. The stage was transformed into a dreamlike spectacle thanks to dramatic fog effects and drifting cloud imagery, evoking both nostalgia and a sense of being on “cloud nine” as she channeled the spirit of classic melodies like “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” into a modern country narrative.
