Rising Country Star Hides Shots in Her Dress at the ACM Awards

Pillbox Patti didn't come to play at the 2023 ACM Awards.

The rising country star graced the red carpet looking fun and fabulous on Thursday evening as she showed up to The Ford Center at The Star with quite a trick up her sleeve—literally!

While rocking an extravagant, glitzy pink gown, Patti brought the party with her to the event in Frisco, Texas, as she had a hidden stash of Tito's Vodka shots tucked into the dramatic sleeve of her dress.

The 37-year-old musician's attire was already a statement in its own right, as the hot pink garment was completely covered in sequins and shaped with an over-the-top cap sleeve—which apparently doubles as a mini bar!

The stunning dress also featured a plunging neckline and fabric that draped onto the floor behind her. She paired the look with a metallic clutch purse while keeping her jewelry simple.

Patti is one of the artists expected to the take the stage at tonight's event, as she is slated to sing a rendition of "Bonfire at Tina's" alongside a slew of other stars, including Ashley McBryde, Brandy Clark, Caylee Hammack, and Brothers Osbourne's John Osbourne.

Other performers include Jason Aldean, Luke Combs, Kane Brown, Miranda Lambert, Lainey Wilson, Carly Pearce, Trisha Yearwood, Cole Swindell, and Keith Urban, among others. Additionally, HARDY, the reigning ACM Songwriter of the Year, is also slated to take the stage at some point in the night, while superstar Ed Sheeran is also scheduled to give a special performance.

This year's show—co-hosted by country music legends Dolly Parton and Garth Brooks, will also feature a slew of notable presenters, including Tanya Tucker, Gabby Barrett,, Tyler Hubbard, Dustin Lynch and more.
