Miranda Lambert debuted Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” live, celebrating Texas pride and supporting the rising artist.

Miranda Lambert made the first live performance of Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas” at WinStar World Casino in Oklahoma, a song she co-wrote and co-produced with Luke Dick and Joybeth Taylor. Inspired by a real story Lambert shared about being pulled over by a Texas officer, the track highlights Texas pride and Langley’s spirited artistry. Lambert, a Texas native, emphasized her support for the Alabama-born artist, delivering the signature line “Dang right he is!” and closing with a proud Texas declaration. The emotional performance followed Lambert’s recent loss of her 15-year-old dog, Cher, and aligned with her ongoing celebration of Texas culture from her 2024 album and single “Wranglers.” Clips quickly spread online, boosting the song’s visibility and spotlighting the growing connection between the artists.
