on May 07, 2024
Lainey Wilson’s upcoming Hulu special, Lainey Wilson: Bell Bottom Country, will give viewers an intimate look at her challenging path to success.
The path to fame is often paved with trials and tribulations—a narrative deeply embodied by country music artist Lainey Wilson. The trailer for her forthcoming documentary, which Hulu revealed on Monday, May 6, provides an intimate window into her early days in Nashville, which were marked by heartbreak and rejection.
“I experienced a lot of rejection, a lot of heartache,” Wilson reveals at the start of the trailer. “I’m a tough woman, but it’s not easy. I have my days where you gotta do whatever you can to crawl out of those dark holes.”
As the trailer unfolds, Wilson’s voice narrates the hardships she faced, including living in a camper van and the relentless pursuit of her musical dreams despite frequent setbacks.
“I remember sittin’ out in this camper trailer, cryin’ my eyes out, thinking, ‘Is it ever gonna happen?’”
Resilience Amidst Adversity
Transitioning from the recount of her initial struggles, the trailer offers viewers a front-row seat into Wilson’s unwavering determination to succeed.
“Momma and Daddy didn’t raise no quitter,” Wilson asserts in the trailer, signaling the strength of character and family values that propelled her forward through the tough times.
The documentary will also explore Wilson’s personal challenges, particularly in 2022 when she faced her father’s serious health problems amidst her time on the set of the television series “Yellowstone.”

A Chronicle of Triumphs
The trailer takes us from Wilson’s moments of doubt to the pinnacle of her achievements. It contrasts the emotional weight of her journey with the celebration of her accolades, which include the prestigious CMA Entertainer of the Year award and a Grammy for Best Country Album.
The trailer teases a story that reflects not only on Wilson’s personal struggles but also on her remarkable rise to prominence in the country music scene.
“19 years old, pulling up to Nashville, I was terrified. I was a fish out of water. At times, I was ‘too country’ for country.”
