Carly Pearce shared a hilarious video of the moments her flight attendants kept her āhumbleā while she watched her CMA Fest performance from the plane. The award-winning country star said they did it by ānot knowing who I am šššššā
As Pearce watches the show on her laptop, viewers can hear āWatermelon Moonshineā artist and CMA Fest host Lainey Wilson introduce her to the stage during the three-hour special that aired on ABC on Wednesday night (July 19).

āThis is me!ā Pearce said, pointing to the screen and high-fiving the woman. ā(Iām) on TV tonight!ā
Pearce showed another flight attendant as she exited the aircraft. The man gave her a double thumbs up, and as Pearce skipped down the aisle, the flight attendant called after her, āwhatās your name?āĀ
āNo one believed me when I told them (I was on TV)!ā Pearce said.
āOmg Iām dead š so thankful I was on this flight to experience this,ā fellow country artist Kylie Morgan wrote in the comments.
