Ella Langley could’ve easily hit the dancefloor for her victory lap at the ACM Awards on Sunday night (May 17) — but instead, she went the other direction with her performance of current crossover smash “Be Her.”
On record, the song — which reached a new No. 2 peak on the Billboard Hot 100 this week (dated May 16) — rides a double-clapping disco groove. But for the ACMs stage in Las Vegas, Langley went fully unplugged, performing the envy anthem on acoustic guitar with just another pair of backing guitarist-singers for accompaniment. The unexpectedly stripped-down and minor-sounding arrangement really brought out the hurt and yearning in the song, giving its “I just wanna be her so bad” pleas a near-“Girl Crush” level of emotional electricity.
Even before performing, Langley had been dominating the ACM Awards all evening, already being presented the trophies for song and single of the year (both for her globe-conquering smash “Choosin’ Texas”), as well as music event of the year (for “Don’t Mind If I Do” with Riley Green). Before the telecast, she had already won artist-songwriter of the year — and before the telecast was over, she also added one more statue to her haul with a W for female artist of the year.
“Be Her” is one of three hits Langley currently boasts in the top 10 of the Hot 100. While that hit climbs from No. 5-2 on the Hot 100 this week, it remains stuck behind her own “Choosin’ Texas” at No. 1 (for the ninth week total), and six spots ahead of her “I Can’t Love You Anymore” with Morgan Wallen at No. 8.
