On Instagram, Scott shared the moment she told her mother, Linda Davis, about the Opry invitation. In the video, the country singer played coy with the news. Scott spoke casually with her mother before finally revealing that Lady A has a golden plaque alongside the other Opry members.
“When my mom left East Texas when she was young, people would ask why she was headed to Nashville and she would say, “to play on the Grand Ole Opry!” Getting to make this call today was priceless,” Scott wrote on her Instagram.
