Lainey Wilson shared a behind-the-scenes look at her âPhone, Keys, Walletâ music video, which features a headless version of the country superstar.
Wilson filmed the lighthearted, hilarious visual in Mount Juliet, Tennessee, outside of Nashville. The reigning Country Music Association Entertainer of the Year (and returning host at the 60th annual show) chases her head as she gathers her essential items throughout the video.
Director TK McKamy said in the behind-the-scenes look on Friday (October 2) that it was âa crazy idea we came up with where I take the head off the biggest superstar in country music and have a whole performance video where she is headless. That should go well. This idea really just kind of leans into the quirky nature of Lainey Wilson. âŚHer personality is so broad and fun and playful. This is a fun idea we think is going to communicate some of that.â
The âPhone, Keys, Walletâ video arrived on September 25, a few months after the singleâs debut. Wilson said when she released âPhone, Keys, Wallet,â featuring John Mayer, that the song âis about finding somebody who loves you for every messy, imperfect, chaotic version of yourself.â She said, âI feel like a tornado with boots on half the time, and this song is really about finding somebody whoâs okay with that chaos and chooses to love you through it anyway.â Wilson wrote it with Kid Harpoon, Jon Decious, Dan Pellarin, Dallas Wilson, Trannie Anderson and Summer Overstreet.
