Lainey Wilson accepted her Rulebreaker Award trophy at the 2023 Billboard Women in Music Awards ceremony on Wednesday night (March 1).
Wilson reflected on her outside-the-box journey to country music stardom and applauded her fellow female “rulebreakers.”
“This award right here is for all the women who do things their way,” Wilson said on stage.
“The ones who are not afraid to go against the grain and paint outside of the lines. The ones who take no on the nose and somehow turn it into a yes,” the singer continued. “I am so inspired by the women who lean into the things that make them different and unique, and I am so blessed to be surrounded by women who have lifted me up and helped me believe that I could break through glass ceilings.”
