Lauren Alaina, Little Big Town, Rita Wilson with Victoria Shaw and Erin Kinsey Perform on the 12th Annual “Opry Goes Pink” to Support the Fight Against Breast Cancer

NASHVILLE, Tenn.  – As the Grand Ole Opry continues its 95th anniversary celebration this month, the show joined together with Susan G. Komen® and Komen Central Tennessee Saturday night in the fight against breast cancer for the Opry’s 12th annual Opry Goes Pink show. Lauren AlainaLittle Big Town, and Rita Wilson with Victoria Shaw and Erin Kinsey performed on the Opry’s 4,797th Saturday night broadcast.

Little Big Town got the night started by flipping the switch to turn the Opry’s signature barn pink, then returned to the stage later for performances of favorites including “Pontoon,” “Boondocks,” and “Wine, Beer, Whiskey,” among others. The award-winning group also introduced their friend Lauren Alaina, who performed “Run,” “Getting Good,” and “Road Less Traveled.”

Wilson, a breast cancer survivor herself, was joined by Victoria Shaw and Erin Kinsey to perform the moving new song “PINK”. Written by Shaw, Kinsey and Jodi Marr, the song offers hope for a future when no one loses someone they love to breast cancer and “PINK is just another color.” Released across all digital retailers Wednesday, the song features Dolly Parton, Monica, Jordin Sparks, Sara Evans and Wilson.  This special collaboration benefits Susan G. Komen®, the world’s leading breast cancer organization.
