Kacey Musgraves shared her grandmother’s blunt reaction to the video for “Mexico Honey”, a song from her recently released album Middle of Nowhere. Her grandmother said the track would “never” make her favourites list, highlighting a playful contrast with the strongly positive response from fans.

The video was released on Wednesday and had surpassed 110,000 views when the article was published. Musgraves said her manager sent it to her grandmother, joking that they were “trying to start” trouble; meanwhile, fans praised the song’s summer appeal, visuals and dancing cowboys. Middle of Nowhere was released in May and reportedly reached No. 2 on the US Top Country Albums chart and No. 3 on the Billboard 200.
