Congratulations to the newest member of the Grand Ole Opry – Kelsea Ballerini!

The induction ceremony took place last night (April 16) in front of a packed house. The young star was all smiles when presented with an Opry trophy by Carrie Underwood!

Kelsea Ballerini was invited to be inducted by Little Big Town during an Opry performance March 15.

Talk about a career high for the 25-year-old artist. Can’t wait to see what she has in store next!
