Life is full of surprises— especially when you’re country-pop singer Kelsea Ballerini. One day, you’re just a teenager at a meet-and greet waiting to snap a pic with Taylor Swift. The next, you’re onstage with her in front of more than 10,000 screaming fans performing your first #1 single.
If it seems like Kelsea came out of nowhere, well, she did. She moved to Nashville at 15 to launch her music career, and released “Love Me Like You Mean It” in 2014. The strength of that song soon landed her a spot on Taylor Swift’s 1989 Tour stage...and things just took off after that.
Now 23, Kelsea is country music’s golden girl. The first three singles on her debut album, The First Time, hit the top spot on Billboard (something a female artist in country music hasn’t achieved in 25 years!), earning her a nomination for Best New Artist at this year’s Grammy Awards.
