We often hear about the exciting times that a fan runs into a celebrity they love. But you know what we don’t hear about as often? A celebrity casually coming across a fan enjoying their own art. But that’s exactly what happened to Walker Hayes recently. The beloved country singer and songwriter was on a flight when the wholesome moment took place. As fate would have it, someone in the row in front of him was a fan. But how did Hayes figure that out?

From the fan’s perspective, they were listening to one of Hayes’ hit songs, Fancy Like, through their headphones. In reality, though, the headphones weren’t fully connected. In turn, Hayes was able to hear his music a bit. As you can imagine, it didn’t take long for him to realize that the song was familiar for a very good reason! You can catch his wholesome reaction in the video below.

“Please tell me you got up and danced for him,” one fan writes, referring to the original dance him and his teen, Lela, shared on TikTok. “I’d die if that were me and you were behind me.”
“I would have asked him to plug in his headphones and then asked if he knew who sang it,” another jokes.
“What an honor to hear your music comforting someone as they fly,” someone else sweetly points out.
