Kelsea Ballerini shook Nashville at the Country Music Association Awards on Wednesday (November 9) as she Carly Pearce and Kelly Clarkson joined together to perform their "sassbomb yeehaw collab moment" "You're Drunk, Go Home."
The "Heartfirst" singer opened the performance by strutting onto the lighted-up stage in a blue minidress and thigh-high floral boots, calling out the men who need to work on their pick-up game. Pearce and Clarkson then joined her onstage, bringing the sass and incredible harmonies telling the wannabe smooth-talker to go away so "me and my girls can do our thing."
The trio were clearly having fun on stage, smiling and laughing with each other as sparks rained down on the stage and they declared, "You ain't nothin' but a dive bar Romeo/ You're drunk, go home."
"You're Drunk, Go Home" is off Ballerini's 15-track album about love and pain called Subject To Change, which dropped in September.

Pearce recently spoke about how the superstar collab has brought all three women together, especially through their shared experiences of going through a divorce. Ballerini and ex-husband Morgan Evans recently parted ways, while Pearce and Clarkson went through their own marriage breakdowns in 2020.
"Kelsea was there for me through mine," she told Entertainment Tonight. "I'm there for her through hers. And Kelly just is the queen, so let's go."
The pair even took their friendship to the busy streets of Music City for a girls night, with Pearce calling Ballerini "my best girlfriend in this town." They "got drunk and sang on [Nashville's Lower] Broadway, yes, we did, and it was horrendous. I saw videos after and I was like, one of us is not, two of us are not like Kelly Clarkson."
