Not only did country singer Ella Langley, 26, just drop her new “Choosin’ Texas” music video with a celebrity-packed, all-star lineup, but she also dropped what appears to be at least one Easter egg clue (or more) for what might be coming next. Time to do some detective work, people.
Ahead of her second album Dandelion, which comes out in April, fans get to enjoy a fantastic music video for Langley’s hit single “Choosin’ Texas,” which has spent four consecutive weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. The music video feels like a short film and boasts a star-studded cast, including actor and singer/songwriter Luke Grimes (Yellowstone), actress Ava Phillippe (daughter to Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe), singer/songwriter Kaitlin Butts, and country star Miranda Lambert (also, a co-writer on the song).
In the opening scene, Langley’s character and her love interest, played by Grimes, arrive in his hometown of Abilene, Texas. The couple pops into a little bar in his old “stompin’ grounds,” where, of course, there sits the Grimes character’s former love interest (played by Phillippe). And just like that, there’a little love triangle trouble brewing in Texas.

You can tune in below to watch how the rest of the heartbreaker story goes, but pay close attention at the end of the video. There’s one if not more little Easter Eggs that Langley seems to be dropping for fans (it wouldn’t be the first time):
- The Tennessee license plate that reads: ICLYA
- The quick clip of an apparent new song with lyrics: “And I think we both know it’s last call for us. Last call for us. It’s last call for us…”
Watch the full Ella Langley “Choosin’ Texas” music video:
Any guesses on what “ICLYA” could stand for? Could it stand for “I Can’t Love You Anymore”? Is that a reference to a new song? And what about those soft, sweet lyrics we hear at the end of the video? Also a new song? And hey, what about the song they’re listening to on the ride into Abilene at the beginning? Is this three new songs? What else are we missing?
Hmm, it does appear there’s already live but blank (for now) Ella Langley YouTube page titled “Last Call for Us.” Says: “Video unavailable,” but something must be coming. Very mysterious …
The Ella Langley album Dandelion (with 18 tracks, including “Choosin’ Texas”) comes out April 10, 2026. It is available for pre-order now.
