Ella Langley Says Miranda Lambert Gave Her the Best Advice of Her Career

Miranda Lambert may have started out as simply an inspiration to Ella Langley, but now they have grown into so much more: a mentor and a friend. Ever since their performance together at the ACM Awards in 2025, they’ve become the duo we didn’t know we needed but can’t get enough of. Together, they have achieved several chart-topping accolades.

In an interview with Country Countdown USA, Langley expressed her gratitude for the advice Lambert gave her while writing and working together. “You are more important than this job.” claimed Lambert to an up-and-coming “Dandelion” singer. With this in mind, Langley learned to take care of herself as an artist, always looking out for her mental and physical health.

Ella Langley continued to praise the “Little Red Wagon” performer, saying, “Having someone like that made me feel like I’m okay.” The wise advice has helped Langley elevate herself into a country artist with control. She has been able to dominate the charts for the past several months with songs like “Be Her” and “Dandelion,” which were produced by Lambert. And who can forget the chart topper co-written by Langley and Lambert, “Choosin’ Texas.”

We’re certain that Miranda Lambert as a guide will only continue to project Ella Langley into further stardom. She has won three Grammys, thirty-five ACM Awards, fourteen CMA Awards, and has had several country chart toppers. Langley has already shown much promise as “Choosin’ Texas” has recently become only the third country song to top the Billboard Hot 100 as a female (non-featured) artist. A feat only achieved by Taylor Swift and Beyoncé as well.

We look forward to Langley’s sophomore album being released next month, which will feature Miranda Lambert is one of the producers. “It doesn’t take a crystal ball to see” that the future is bright for this duo.
