Kelsea Ballerini has had a banner year. She wrapped up her arena-headlining tour, served as a judge on The Voice, and had an ELLE digital cover<\/a> to boot. It\u2019s the result of consistent hard work, she explains to ELLE editor-in-chief Nina Garcia. \u201cIt took a really beautiful, steady grind for 10 years to headline arenas, and we did it.\u201d<\/p>\n

The country singer is the latest guest on Defining, ELLE\u2019s new video series where Garcia sits down with some of her famous friends to discuss career milestones, personal struggles, and what truly makes them tick.<\/p>\n

Ballerini is fresh off the release of her album,<\/strong> Patterns. The project reached No. 1 on Billboard\u2019s Top Country Albums chart and No. 4 on the Billboard 200. \u201cCowboys Cry Too,\u201d featuring Noah Kahan, cracked the Billboard Hot 100 as well. Despite all of this, she walked home from the Academy of Country Music Awards empty–<\/strong>handed. \u201c<\/strong>I\u2019<\/strong>m happy to be in the conversation,\u201d she tells Garcia. \u201cI know that I have value here, and this is not where I find my success.\u201d<\/p>\n

Through it all, Ballerini has carried herself with an unmistakable grace. She\u2019s become a fashion girl, wearing brands like Schiaparelli and attending the Met Gala and has a legion of loyal fans amping her up. She\u2019s country music\u2019s darling, and Garcia gets to the heart of it all.<\/p>\n
