Introduction
The recent Sand in My Boots festival, hosted by Morgan Wallen, delivered a memorable moment for country music fans when Ella Langley brought out a surprise guest during her performance: Riley Green.
On the second day of the festival’s main stage lineup, Langley welcomed Green to join her for their chart-topping collaboration, “You Look Like You Love Me.” This marked their first joint performance of the track since their triumphant night at the 2025 ACM Awards, where the song swept categories including Single, Music Event, and Visual Media of the Year.
“You Look Like You Love Me” continues its reign as a dominant force in country music, nearly a year after its initial release. The undeniable chemistry between Green and Langley has been a highlight of their numerous shared performances throughout 2024 and 2025. Their Sand in My Boots rendition was no exception, showcasing their practiced synchronicity and playful stage presence. A particularly amusing exchange saw Langley deliver the lyric “Baby?” only for Green to playfully retort, “What?”
Beyond their on-stage magic and the viral success of their duet, Green and Langley have frequently been the subject of romance rumors. The palpable chemistry in their “sexy pick-up song” led many fans to speculate about a real-life relationship. However, both artists have consistently shut down these rumors, with Green famously quipping that Langley was “too smart” to date him.
More recently, the spotlight of romance speculation has shifted to Riley Green and fellow country artist Megan Moroney. Whispers of a potential pairing began circulating in early 2025 and intensified in April after they were reportedly seen together at an airport. Further fuel was added to the fire in May, following the ACMs, when fan-captured photos emerged of Green and Moroney driving in a convertible in Green’s Alabama hometown.
Despite the persistent buzz, both Green and Moroney have also denied any romantic involvement. Moroney previously acknowledged a coincidental encounter with Green while on separate vacations in Saint-Jean, St. Barthélemy last December, maintaining that their presence in the same location was purely by chance.
