WATCH: Dustin Lynch Brought a 17-Year-Old Girl on Stage to Sing ‘Thinking About You’

Dustin Lynch brought a 17-year-old girl onstage to sing with him at Country Fest in Cadott, Wisconsin back in June and videos of it have now gone viral. Her name is Hailey James and she sang MacKenzie Porter’s part of the duet “Thinking ‘Bout You”.  It all started when Dustin Lynch asked the crowd if anyone wanted to sing a song with him on stage. Hailey was up to the challenge.

Hailey said of the experience “Dustin took my hand, and I was just walking him across the stage like I owned it.  I remembered the words, I acted like I was supposed to be up there, and [my parents] were super proud of me.”

Check out the video of Dustin Lynch and Hailey below.
