Onstage pranks are a staple on Kenny Chesney tours, and Megan Moroney might’ve just pulled off the best one ever.
During the first of three nights at Massachusetts’ Gillette Stadium on Friday (Aug. 23), Chesney brought opening act Moroney out for a duet performance of “She Thinks My Tractor’s Sexy” — a song they’ve done together several times on the tour.
But this time around, Moroney had a little something extra planned. She rolled out onstage on a toy John Deere tractor, dressed like Chesney and waving a No Shoes Nation Flag. Moroney even tucked her hair into a dupe of the star’s signature white cowboy hat.
Video of the moment shows Moroney cracking up during the big reveal, then driving her tractor over to Chesney for their duet.
Before she hopped onstage, Moroney took some video to show fans the look up close. In a clip posted to her TikTok, she shows off her Chesney-inspired outfit, and even busts a couple dance moves proving that her impression of her tour boss is dead on.
After the big surprise, Chesney admitted that Moroney executed the prank perfectly — even though he noted that traditionally, artists on his tour wait until the last night to pull out the surprises.
“But Megan just couldn’t wait,” he says in a statement. “When I find out who let her in the tour bus, well…But I have to admit: She looked good in my stuff. If there’s one thing I can give her: This girl is going big places, and it’s happening fast.”
Chesney’s Sun Goes Down Tour concludes on Sunday (Aug. 25) with its third and final sold-out Gillette Stadium show.
