ABC/Mark LevineMaren Morris continues to be country’s ambassador to the pop world. As she enjoys her monster crossover hit “The Middle,” she’s also opening Niall Horan’s Flicker World Tour — and winning new fans in the process.
Maren and the One Direction hitmaker are currently in the middle of a two-night run at L.A.’s Greek Theatre, and Maren’s getting plenty of attention from Hollywood stars: Lance Bass and actor Colton Haynes.
“I want to put this one in a Baby Bjorn and walk around all day with her!” the NSYNC member and reality star shared, along with a photo of himself posing with the diminutive singer.
“A baby bjorn.” Maren responded, adding three laugh-until-you-cry emojis. “You guys were so sweet. So good finally meeting you.”
Meanwhile, Colton Haynes, who’s best known for his roles in Arrow and Teen Wolf, put out an emotional plea for tickets to the concert on Wednesday.
“Y’all…I don’t go to a lot of concerts but if someone can help me get the 2 best seats in the house for Maren Morris tonight I will pay whatever the amount,” the actor tweeted. “I’m not scalping but I will pay for a backstage pass lol. I was supposed to meet her once but I cried then left.”
The “My Church” singer was quick to accommodate.
“Honeyyyyy. You and a plus 1 are on the list at will call for tonight,” she answered.
Maren continues on tour with Niall through September. Her latest country single, “Rich,” continues its climb in the top 25.
