Lauren Alaina invited to Join Grand Ole Opry

NASHVILLE, Tennessee (WDEF) – It was a lifetime dream-come-true for a girl from Rossville, Georgia.

Singer Lauren Alaina has never been shy about professing her love for the Grand Ole Opry.

She has performed their many times.

But none of those performances will be as memorable for her as Saturday Night’s.

Her musical idol, Trisha Yearwood, made a surprise appearance on the stage.

“I have the honor of asking you on behalf of the Grand Ole Opry if you would please accept our invitation to become the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry.”

Lauren will officially be inducted next year.

She later posted “I have watched this video ten times (at least) and I still can’t believe it. I cry every time I watch.”
