Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem Tour brought the star power to Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin over the weekend as part of his I’m The Problem Tour. During both shows of the two-night run that launched on Saturday, June 28, Wallen surprised the crowd by welcoming his opener, Ella Langley, to the stage.
The pair of artists teamed up to perform the fan-favorite duet “What I Want” off Wallen’s latest 37-track album. The song was originally recorded alongside pop star Tate McRae, but since she wasn’t present for the show, Langley stepped up to deliver her part. Langley greeted fans earlier in the night while serving as an opener on select dates of the trek, but she also got the chance to shine with this performance in the midst of Wallen’s set.
As heard in the videos of the delivery that have flooded social media, Langley filled in seamlessly as her Alabama bred vocals intertwined with Wallen’s. The pair of artists won over the massive audience of fans while depicting the moody story of two emotionally damaged people who are both upfront about their baggage. Instead of shying away from heartbreak, the lyrics lean into the mutual understanding their desire to just live in the moment.
Langley’s first appearance on stage was a pleasant surprise, but her performance on night two is what really got fans talking. She and Wallen teamed up once again to sing the same track, but during the Sunday night show, the moment was intensified by the pouring rain that broke out.
The female powerhouse surprises didn’t stop there because Miranda Lambert also made an appearance during Wallen’s set on both of the Wisconsin tour dates. These superstars united to sing his hit, “Cowgirls.”
Lambert certainly dressed for the part as she channeled her inner cowgirl with her ensembles that featured cowboy boots, a cowboy hat, a denim skirt and a graphic tee. The Texas native offered her award-winning vocals to the harmonies of the hard-hitting tune that was originally recorded with fellow country act, ERNEST.
It’s safe to say that with the help of Ella Langley and Miranda Lambert, the East Tennessee native left his mark Camp Randall Stadium. These stops turned out to be historic for the venue, as Wallen hosted the biggest concerts ever held in the state with over 100,000 attendees across two nights. Plus, Wallen was the first artist to headline two consecutive nights at a Wisconsin stadium.
This marked Miranda Lambert’s first weekend serving as a special guest on Morgan Wallen’s I’m the Problem Tour. She is scheduled to appear several more times throughout the trek, including July 11 at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, FL and July 18 at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, AZ. Her run with Wallen will come to an end on September 12 in Edmonton, AB.
Ella Langley will also continue to put her talent on display in front of Morgan Wallen’s fans throughout the summer. Her next appearance will once again take place alongside Lambert at the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, AZ on July 28. She will deliver her final performance on the last night of the tour, which is set to take place on September 13 in Canada.
Morgan Wallen is already making this trek one to remember. He kicked things off earlier this month in Houston, TX with a pair of star-studded guests joining him on his beloved walk-out tradition.
He appeared alongside former Houston Texans Hall of Fame wide receiver Andre Johnson and Houston salesman Mattress Mack on night one as the fan-favorite “Broadway Girls” song blared through the speakers before transitioning into I’m The Problem’s seventh track, “Interlude.” On the second night, rapper Drake and former Houston Astros pitcher Roger Clemens joined for the walkout. For his time in Wisconsin, the country act delivered a solo walkout on Saturday and welcomed former NFL quarterback, Brett Favre on Sunday.
The tour continues this weekend with another round of back-to-back shows in Miami Gardens, FL.

Comedian Danae Hays has publicly introduced her new girlfriend, Jenn Cooke, who happens to have country roots as the sister of chart-topping country singer Ashley Cooke.
Hays and Cooke took their relationship to social media last week when they appeared on each other’s accounts while enjoying a staycation in Nashville.
Speculation about their relationship immediately began within the comments section as fans shared their excitement over seeing them together.
“Is this the new girlfriend? Or just a friend? You both are DOLLS,” one user wrote.
Another shared, “So glad to see you happy again! She’s so beautiful! Y’all are beautiful together!”
Later, Hays seemingly confirmed the speculation by sharing a gallery of photos of her and Cooke with the caption, “Summer has been good to me so far.”
Jenn Cooke was quick to reply, writing, “best summer with you babe.”
Others commented on the “hard launch” and shared excitement for them both finding happiness.
In recent posts, Cooke has officially called Hays her “girlfriend” and even shared a video to introduce herself to the wave of new followers.
Ashley Cooke commented on her sister’s latest post, praising, “this era .. you’re glowing.”
Danae Hays’ new relationship comes after her previous marriage to Mandie Kaii, which ended late last summer after three years. News of their split quickly went viral on TikTok, leaving many fans surprised. Since then, Hays has been candid about her journey through heartbreak and healing, which is something her followers have deeply appreciated. Now, they’re cheering her on as she steps into this new chapter.
In recent years, Hays has become a cherished part of the Nashville community, participating in various charity events, including supporting Folds of Honor alongside country stars like Riley Green, Jordan Davis, RaeLynn, HARDY, and others.
This spring, she achieved a lifelong dream by making her Grand Ole Opry debut with a comedy set on March 4. It was a goal she had been manifesting for years, and through dedication and hard work, it became a reality.
Nearly two years earlier, before she had even attempted stand-up, she wrote down her dream of performing on the Opry stage. It felt like a long shot at the time, but her belief and persistence helped bring it to life.
“One of the things that I wrote down was I wanted to have a Grand Ole Opry debut for comedy. And I was like, this is a big lofty goal for somebody that’s never done standup before. And then shortly after I started, I started doing stand-up, and then we went on tour,” she recalled while chatting with Country Now backstage before her big debut. “And so it just feels very surreal. It feels very euphoric. It just feels like something that I’ve idolized in my head for so long is now minutes away.”
Hays recently completed her very first comedy tour and has more dates scheduled through late November.
