McEntire attended the Feb. 3 performance with her stepson Brandon Blackstock and his wife, singer Kelly Clarkson. Following the performance, she went backstage for pictures (wearing the show's signature boots) and a "boob bounce" with actress Bonnie Milligan.
"We were all so excited to kick off a new city like Nashville, and knowing that Reba and Kelly were in the audience made it even better!" Milligan told Playbill.com. "They were amazingly down to earth and sweet. They said they loved the show and had a great time. Reba has been an idol of mine since I was a kid. I had t-shirts with her face on them, I recorded a song of hers when I was seven, she's been one of the biggest influences on me musically. Meeting her was a dream come true! I cried, of course, told her what she meant to me, and then she brought up the boob bounce I do in the show. We laughed and she hugged me and that was that. Dream come true."

Reba brought up the boob bounce and we reenacted it together. I was freaking out! Had already sobbed and didn't want the moment to end but didn't know what to say so I said, "And I wore the Reba wig." #soawkward #iloveher #dreamcometrue #thatwasmyonechancefancy #shedidntletmedownA video posted by @beltingbons on
