Lainey Wilson is already thinking about what could happen if Ella Langley has a huge night at the 2026 CMA Awards. And she has a pretty funny plan ready.

Langley leads the CMA nominations with nine in 2026, putting her in a position to take home several trophies. Wilson isn't overlooking that possibility and joked that she's prepared to help Langley clean up if she wins big.

Lainey Wilson’s Hilarious Message to Ella Langley Ahead of the CMAs

During a conversation on Amazon Music's Country Heat Weekly podcast with Kelly Sutton and Amber Anderson, Wilson revealed that she told Langley she'd be willing to help her out at the awards show.

Wilson said, "I am gathering ideas, and I’ll tell you one of my ideas because I told Ella this. I said, ‘Girl, I’m going to bring you a bedazzled broom’ so she can sweep it up…I’m going to be there with a bedazzled dust pan."

It's a pretty good way to handle a potential awards sweep.
