Miranda Lambert’s quirky birthday gift, Morgan Wallen’s hifalutin’ ATV accessories | Music City Minute

Nov 21, 2025, 4:36 PM

Last week, Miranda Lambert celebrated her birthday and her husband, Brendan, got her a unique gift. Apparently, the Texas native is a big fan of dinosaurs, and so her husband was able to procure a life-size metal dinosaur statue. Although Lambert calls it a T-Rex, I would say it looks more like a velociraptor, but that is neither here nor there. The fact is I am sure Miranda Lambert has everything and so her husband, choosing this gift, goes to show he truly understands her quirky personality. By the way, she named the dinosaur statue Patina because it will live outside.
Morgan Wallen has reached another huge career milestone. The country star recently received three separate plaques for the songs “Whiskey Glasses,” “I Had Some Help” and “Last Night” reaching one billion streams. In typical redneck fashion, Wallen dismantled the awards, drilled holes into them in order to fit them as hubcaps on his ATV with zip ties! Hey, at least he is going to get some use out of plaques instead of letting them collect dust.
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
