Breanna Nix Performs At The Grand Ole Opry

It hasn’t been long since Breanna Nix was performing on the American Idol stage, and now she’s already checked off a major career milestone by making her debut at the iconic Grand Ole Opry!

On Thursday, June 5, Breanna Nix was part of a special lineup of artists who performed at the Grand Ole Opry.

Breanna’s moment in the Opry Circle came less than a month after she appeared on American Idol Season 23.

She made it all the way to the Top 3, along with fellow finalists Jamal Roberts and John Foster.

Fans first got to know Breanna when she introduced herself as a stay-at-home mom during her audition. She ended up wowing the judges with her performance of newcomer judge Carrie Underwood’s hit “Jesus, Take The Wheel.”

Her audition also gave viewers one of the most adorable moments of the season. She brought her young son into the audition room with her, and while she sang, he fell asleep in Carrie’s arms.

Throughout the season, she continued to perform faith-based songs and built a fan base across the country.

In the end, she finished in third place, with John Foster coming in second and Jamal Roberts taking home the win.

After her time on Idol, Breanna quickly found success with her debut single, “Higher.” The song shot to the No. 1 spot of the iTunes Country chart and stayed in the Top 10 for several days after its release.

About Her Opry Debut Performance

By the end of her set, she had earned two standing ovations.

50 YEARS AGO, 7 COLLEGE KIDS STARTED ACTING IN AN 88-SEAT CHURCH BASEMENT. LAST NIGHT, ONE OF THEM HELD HER 3RD TONY. Laurie Metcalf just won Best Featured Actress in a Play at the 79th Tony Awards for her role as Linda Loman in Death of a Salesman — alongside Nathan Lane, directed by Joe Mantello. This is her 3rd Tony. Her 7th nomination. But what she did at Radio City Music Hall wasn’t about the numbers. She stood up there and named 6 people. Not agents. Not producers. Six college friends from Illinois State University who started Steppenwolf Theatre together — in a church basement. Gary Sinise. John Malkovich. Jeff Perry. Terry Kinney. Moira Harris. Al Wilder. “I still consider them family,” she said. “I still draw on lessons I learned from them.” After everything — the Emmys, the Oscar nomination, decades on Roseanne — the first people she thanked were the ones who knew her before any of it mattered. Some things don’t change, even after 50 years.

THEY FIRED HIM ON A TUESDAY. BY SATURDAY, HE WAS SMILING ON A SAILBOAT. Scott Pelley spent 37 years at CBS News. He anchored the Evening News. He reported from war zones. He won dozens of Emmys. And last week, on his new boss’s very first day, he stood up in a staff meeting and said what nobody else would. He told executive producer Nick Bilton he’d “never be welcome here.” He accused CBS chief Bari Weiss of “murdering” 60 Minutes. But what Pelley claimed they asked him to do behind the scenes — that part changes everything. Within 24 hours, he was handed a termination letter. Fired “for cause.” 37 years, gone in a single page. Then Saturday morning, he posted a photo on Instagram. No anger. Just him at the helm of a sailboat, hands on the wheel, American flag behind him, looking out at open water. His only words: “You are the wind in my sails. So deeply grateful.”
