Lainey Wilson<\/strong><\/a> was scrolling TikTok when she \u201cnoticed a few videos of my butt\u201d going viral. Fans compared her to country legend Dolly Parton,<\/strong> \u201cjust the backyard instead of the front,\u201d as one commenter put it. After years of struggling to find success as a singer, Lainey couldn\u2019t help but laugh. \u201cMy booty introduced my music to a lot of folks,\u201d she said, \u201cand I\u2019m OK with that.\u201d<\/p>\n She\u2019s long embraced her curves, which the reigning ACM and CMA female entertainer of the year enhances with her trademark bell-bottoms<\/a>. But as her career took off, she realized she wanted to get healthier so she\u2019d have energy for her 90-minute concerts. As for those rumors that Lainey shed 70 pounds via weight-loss<\/a> gummies? According to the \u201cNever Say Never\u201d songstress, it\u2019s closer to \u201c20 pounds\u201d \u2014 and, \u201chell no,\u201d she didn\u2019t take some kind of miracle supplement to drop them.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s important for me to feed my body with foods that make me feel good,\u201d she\u2019s explained of her slim-down process in recent years.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m pretty much on that stage running a marathon, and I think that\u2019s why I have kind of trimmed up a little bit.\u201d<\/p>\n The once picky eater preps meals if she can when back home in Louisiana and requests snacks like beef jerky, cheese, hummus and almonds on tour and while filming Yellowstone<\/em><\/a>. However, she admits to enjoying some chocolate \u201cevery single day.\u201d<\/p>\n Ultimately, Lainey\u2019s said, \u201cI want longevity in this and to feel good and look good. And when I say, \u2018look good,\u2019 I want to be able to look in the mirror and feel positive and feel confident.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
