00:00Nicole, live from the CMAs with my birthday twin, Drew Baldrige.

00:08Hey.

00:09Shout out to all my July 29ers.

00:11Who knows how many there are.

00:13I know, but now we're all part of the club.

00:15I love it.

00:16I love it.

00:17It was so funny, when you came to the station many moons ago, and I was looking you up,

00:21I'm like, huh, July 29.

00:22Same birthday.

00:23Yeah, and every time I see you, I'm like, there's my birthday twin.

00:25But I was teasing you, because you have your own camera guy now.

00:28That's fancy, ain't it?

00:29And I was like, nothing says a Leo like your own camera guy.

00:32Hey, we gotta have, this guy runs my life right now with all my social posts and everything.

00:36I love it.

00:37Congratulations, by the way.

00:38Oh, thank you.

00:39I mean, you're just, obviously, you've had so much success with your songs, but now you're

00:42like, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

00:45Oh my goodness.

00:46Ain't that crazy?

00:47What was that call like?

00:48Oh my goodness.

00:49Well, it was a Friday.

00:50Okay.

00:51I remember all this.

00:52Okay, good.

00:53Give it to, yeah.

00:54I always wanted to know how this works.

00:55So we were out on tour this summer with Bailey Zimmerman.

00:56Yeah.

00:57It was an amazing tour, and we got a call on a Friday, and it was the Hallmark Channel.

01:00And they were like, hey.

01:01I was getting to that question, but again.

01:03We got this movie coming out called A Grand Ole Opry Christmas, and we need a new artist

01:08for some scenes.

01:10Yeah.

01:11Do you think you could come in Monday and do it?

01:13And I looked at my manager.

01:14I was like, frickin' right we can.

01:16We'll figure out how to get there.

01:17Whatever we gotta do.

01:18Yeah.

01:19So we played Sunday.

01:20I remember driving straight back, literally going straight to the Grand Ole Opry, and we

01:23are an artist in this movie named Rowdy.

01:26Yeah.

01:27And Brad Paisley's also part of the movie, too.

01:28Yes.

01:29Brad Paisley's a part of the movie.

01:30Yeah.

01:31The scene is me and Jamie Johnson, and we're just talking about, you know, he's like,

01:36stay true to who you are, you know, and all this stuff.

01:38Right.

01:39And I have like five or six lines, but then they-

01:40Did you ever think about acting before?

01:42I always wanted to.

01:43Yeah.

01:44Like, I always thought it would be something that would be super awesome.

01:46I didn't know if I'd ever get that opportunity.

01:47Yeah.

01:48But if I did, I wanted to do it.

01:49Yeah.

01:50And so, we get this small part in the Hallmark movie, and they called, and they were like,

01:53look, we really loved your scene.

01:54We have this song called Joy to Your World.

01:57Do you think you would sing it?

01:58We really want it to be like our countdown to Christmas.

02:01And I was like, frickin' right.

02:03Yeah.

02:04Like, let's do it.

02:05And they, it was me and Mickey Guyton.

02:06Yeah.

02:07And so, me and Mickey sang this song, and they called back, like, we love it so much.

02:12Do you, would you sing it on the Hallmark float at the Macy's Day Parade?

02:16And I was like, 100%.

02:18This is a no-brainer for me.

02:19Yeah.

02:20And so, it was just kind of one thing led to another, and Hallmark was just so good to

02:24me.

02:25A lot of the Hallmark actors that day, we did like a, kind of a big show at the Opry

02:30after that.

02:31Yeah.

02:32And got to sing the song with Mickey, and it just kind of felt like a small family, and

02:35we get to be a small part of that this year.

02:37Which is so cool.

02:38So, Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, so you and your family are going to spend Thanksgiving

02:40in New York City.

02:41In New York City.

02:42Yes.

02:43Do they get to be on the float with you?

02:44They don't.

02:45No.

02:46They don't get to be on the float.

02:47Okay.

02:48They get to watch and enjoy that experience.

02:49Yeah.

02:50And like, to be a part to see, like, their dad be in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

02:55Like, that's just some, it's so Americana.

02:57Do you know what I mean?

02:58Yeah.

02:59Yeah, it is.

03:00And it just, you know, this is a dream of mine that I would be like, watching and be

03:03like, that would be cool one day to do that.

03:04Yeah.

03:05Not knowing it would ever happen.

03:06And here we are.

03:07We get to do that now.

03:08I know.

03:09Oh my God.

03:10Congratulations.
