Lainey Wilson Celebrates Thanksgiving In New York City

One week after being named the CMA’s Entertainer of the Year for 2025, Lainey Wilson flew to New York City to perform during Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade.

The beloved parade, celebrating its 99th anniversary this year, aired live on NBC at 8:30 AM. Spectators along the parade route were treated to performances from artists such as Cynthia Erivo, Mickey Guyton, Colbie Caillat, Russell Dickerson, Christopher Jackson, Foreigner, and, of course, Wilson.

Wilson delivered her festive performance near the end of the parade, right before Santa’s grand entrance, while standing in front of Macy’s flagship store in Herald Square.

She wore a red, fluffy coat over a longer black jacket with gold embellishments. She accented her look with gold earrings, black fringed gloves, and a plain black cowboy hat.

Wilson performed two songs, opening with her dreamy, Grammy-nominated hit, “Somewhere Over Laredo.” Then, she delivered a dazzling holiday rendition of her song “Peace, Love, and Cowboys.”

Watch Lainey’s performance during the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade in the video below.

Wilson played a huge role in last year’s (2024) Thanksgiving celebrations as well. She performed during the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Kickoff halftime show at the Dallas Cowboys’ Thanksgiving game.

Wilson also surprised the crowd by bringing out Jelly Roll to sing their hit duet, “Save Me.”

 

Lainey Wilson Recently Released A Holiday EP

Before Thanksgiving this year, Lainey Wilson treated her fans to an early Christmas gift. She released a new holiday EP titled Peace, Love, & Cowboys (Holiday Edition).

The EP features a “holiday edition” of Wilson’s “Peace, Love, and Cowboys.” The track was originally featured on the deluxe edition of Wilson’s album Whirlwind, which just won the CMA Award for Album of the Year.

The EP also includes Wilson’s version of the holiday staple “Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!,” featuring Bing Crosby’s vocals to create a virtual duet.

Listen to both songs in the videos below. Which one is your favorite?

We hope Wilson and her loved ones have a happy Thanksgiving this year!

Just enough to make people look up. Then she stepped out. Kate Hudson didn’t rush. She smiled. Took a breath. And in that second, the air changed. You could see hands cover mouths. You could hear the crowd before they even screamed. When their voices met, it didn’t feel like a performance. It felt like a memory being unlocked. Familiar. Soft. Almost personal. By the final note, no one wanted to sit down. And hours later, the clips were everywhere. Some moments don’t need explaining. You just feel them. Here’s a sharper, more magnetic rewrite — heightened emotion, tighter pacing, and stronger pull at the end: 6,000 PEOPLE. 3 SECONDS. AND RADIO CITY LOST CONTROL. The room was already buzzing. Hugh Jackman was mid-song — calm, confident, completely in command — when the lights shifted just slightly. Nothing dramatic. Barely noticeable. But enough to make people look up. Then she stepped out. Kate Hudson didn’t rush. She smiled. Took a breath. And in that single moment, the atmosphere changed. You could see hands fly to mouths. You could feel the intake of breath before the scream even came. When their voices met, it didn’t feel rehearsed. It didn’t feel staged. It felt like something familiar resurfacing — a memory unlocked. Warm. Effortless. Almost intimate, despite the size of the room. By the final note, no one wanted to sit back down. And within hours, the clips were everywhere — shared, replayed, obsessed over. Some moments don’t need hype. They don’t need explaining. You just feel them.

Just a shared memory that said more than words ever could. The message was unmistakable: there is no rivalry between the two sons John Lennon loved so deeply. In a world that feeds on conflict, the post felt almost disarming. One image. One moment. And suddenly, years of rumors lost their power. It reminded people that some bonds don’t need defending, proving, or performing for the public eye. Some truths don’t shout.
