Wynonna Judd Addresses Fans' Concerns Over Her Performance with Rapper at CMA Awards
November 09, 2023

Country music legend Wynonna Judd took to social media to address the concerns some fans raised following her duet performance with rapper Jelly Roll.
Speaking or performing in public is a nightmare scenario for most people. Public speaking is always near the top of the most feared, dreaded activities. Having eyeballs focused on and judging your every move is a scary and frightening thought for most of the population. As it turns out, even seasoned, veteran performers are prone to an episode of stage fright and pre-show jitters every now and then.

During the Country Music Awards, rapper Jelly Roll performed his hit “Need a Favor.” But the performance quickly turned into a duet. About a minute into the song, Wynonna Judd walks out onto the stage, joining and singing the catchy, toe-tapping tune, according to People.
Wynonna and Jelly sound awesome! They had everyone in the audience on their feet, singing and dancing along.
