Kelsea Ballerini Piles Up Her 'Baggage' In Explosive ACMs Performance

Kelsea Ballerini dragged her baggage to the ACM Awards stage in the best way.

Ballerini loaded up piles of her baggage – literally – at the 60th Academy of Country Music Awards on Thursday (May 8), stacking dozens of suitcases onto the stage as she belted out her track "Baggage" from her 2024 album Patterns.

Shining bright in a sparkling, low-cut jumpsuit, rocked the stage surrounded by luggage piled up high as she sang about checking all of her baggage at the door because she "kinda feel like I don't need it anymore." The high-energy performance was stoked even further with explosive pyrotechnics lighting up the stage as smoke swirled through the air. She even had her boyfriend, Outer Banks star Chase Stokes, smiling and singing along to "home is when you're with me."

Led by Reba McEntire, who returned to host the show for the 18th time, the 60th ACM Awards featured a host of incredible performances from Lainey Wilson, Blake Shelton, Eric Church, Alan Jackson, Megan Moroney, Cody Johnson and more as well as a "Songs of the Decades" throwback to open the show. The night will also see collaborations from Rascal Flatts and Backstreet Boys, Brooks & Dunn and Cody Johnson, and Jelly Roll and Shaboozey.
