Yellowstone star Lainey Wilson WOWS in metallic green jumpsuit she walks ACM Awards red carpet
Yellowstone star Lainey Wilson made a splash as she hit the red carpet for the Academy Of Country Music Awards this Thursday.
The 30-year-old joined a cavalcade of boldface names who flooded into the Ford Center at The Star in Frisco, Texas for the glittering affair.
Lainey was a sight to see in a metallic green jumpsuit with a flesh-flashing design that allowed her to show off her sculpted midriff.
Perfectly fitted to her hourglass frame, the getup came with a cape that gleamed under the lights as Lainey spread it for the cameras.
She accessorized the ensemble with a formal black cowgirl hat and let her dirty blonde hair fall free underneath.

Lainey, one of the scheduled performers at the awards show, is also up for six awards including female artist of the year, album of the year and song of the year.
Viewers at home will be able to catch it on Amazon Prime Video - even without a subscription - as well as on Twitch's Amazon Music Channel.
Two country superstars whose appeal expands well beyond the limits of the genre — Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks — are hosting the ceremony.
'While I've had the pleasure of spending time with him throughout the years, I can't believe we've never had the chance to work together,' Parton gushed about Brooks in a statement shared after she was announced as host.
Unfortunately, fans likely won't get to see the legendary entertainers duetting, though Parton will still perform.
'I think [Brooks' wife] Trisha [Yearwood] is going to be on, too, on the show, so I figured that I'm not going to mess with that,' Parton joked to reporters at a press event. 'I don't want her kicking my little short butt!'
HARDY leads the nominations this year with seven, while Lainey Wilson is close behind with six nods.
Country stars Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert and Cole Swindell also scored an impressive five nominations each.

The top prize for Entertainer of the Year will go to either Jason Aldean, Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Miranda Lambert, Chris Stapleton, Carrie Underwood or Morgan Wallen.
Wallen was engulfed in controversy in 2021 after he was caught on video drunkenly shouting the N-word. In response, his recording contract was suspended and some radio stations stopped playing his music, while streaming services removed his songs from playlists.
However, country fans responded to his use of a racial slur by buying his 2021 album Dangerous: The Double Album in even greater numbers.
Lambert is the most-awarded person ever at the ACM Awards, and she broke the record for most Female Artist of the Year nominations with her 17th this year, surpassing Reba McEntire's 16.
Performers at Thursday's ceremony include Jason Aldean, Kane Brown, Luke Combs, Cody Johnson, Miranda Lambert, Ashley McBryde, Jo Dee Messina, Jelly Roll, Cole Swindell, Keith Urban, Morgan Wallen, The War And Treaty, Lainey Wilson and Bailey Zimmerman.
He's best known for his hit pop songs, but Ed Sheeran will also bring his smooth sound to the raucous show.
For her performance, Parton will be debuting World On Fire, the first song on her upcoming album Rockstar.
The covers LP is a departure for her, marking her first rock album, and it was inspired after she was nominated — and subsequently inducted — into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022.
