Country symbol Lainey Wilson caused heart palpitations at her last public appearance when she impressed in a floral ensemble at New York Fashion Week – but some fans felt the move was a step in the wrong direction.

The “Hang Tight Honey” singer shared an update on Instagram wearing a gorgeous Carolina Herrera jumpsuit in shades of blue and green as she celebrated her nominations for the 2024 CMA Awards.

She wrote: “You never know what’s coming next! Thank you @cma 😭🙏🏻❤️ It’s an incredible honor to be nominated in each of these categories. And congratulations to all my friends. Watching you all win makes me so excited.”

In the photos, she posed in the stylish jumpsuit on the streets of New York City, with a messy bun and lots of eye-catching gold jewelry as accessories.

The comments were full of compliments and well wishes for the star, with fans writing things like, “You look amazing 🔥,” “Glamorous. Chic. Iconic. Fabulous. All of the above 🙌🔥,” and “Congratulations my girl!! You truly deserve them all!! 🎉🏆.”

But not everyone saw Wilson’s recent success as a good sign. Some warned the singer: “Don’t mess with Hollywood… stay the wonderful country girl you are 😍.”

In response, fans added, “I came here to say this” and “I feel like she’s had a touch of Hollywood in her for months 😭.”

“Please stay the way you were when you captured our hearts,” said another, while another fan wrote: “Do anything but don’t forget your roots!!”

But many supporters have criticized this dialogue. One said, “These comments make me SICK. The fact that people feel so threatened and bothered by you ‘changing and becoming all Hollywood’ just because you wear an outfit that isn’t your usual style to a special event. STAY RELAXED!”

Wilson continues to dominate the country music scene and released her latest album in August Whirlwindwhich has had great success so far.
