Reba McEntire Turns Heads At The CMA Awards With Bold, Sultry Performance Of “Fancy”

Reba McEntire knows how to keep her audience on their toes! The country music legend lit up the stage at the 2019 CMAs on Wednesday night, stepping out in a striking lilac robe adorned with feathers. She began performing her classic 1990 hit, “Fancy,” with all the elegance and flair fans have come to expect.

For those familiar with the song, the opening lines hinted at the story about to unfold: “We didn’t have money for food or rent / To say the least we were hard-pressed / Then Mama spent every last penny we had / To buy me a dancin’ dress.”

Reba wowed the audience with her dazzling costume changes during her performance. She started by shedding a robe to reveal a stunning red, sleeveless dress with a flattering V-neck and matching red heels. But that was just the beginning.

As the song progressed, Reba’s energy did too—she dramatically ripped off her red dress to reveal a sparkling sequined jumpsuit, sending the crowd into a frenzy. It was a perfect diva moment, showcasing the star power of one of country music’s most legendary figures.

Not only fans but Garth Brooks couldn’t contain his excitement, clearly impressed by the bold and dynamic performance. That year, the video of her performance was widely shared on social media and got much positive feedback.

One said, “Love this woman!! Her method of contorting her voice in so many different ways amazes me! Another added, “I don’t have words to express how much I love Reba.. her singing, her acting and her show, her humor, her attitude, her presence.. literally everything about this woman.”
