Bebe Rexha Dons Dolly Parton-Style Hat During CMA Fest

It wasn't your typical hat, for sure.

(Nashville, TN)  --  Bebe Rexha says she gave Dolly Parton's hatmaker a call before heading to the CMA Fest in June to perform her massive crossover hit, "Meant to Be." 

Before her performance with Florida Georgia Line, Rexha told the media backstage that she really wanted a special accessory. 

She said her cowboy hat donned 6,000 Swarovski crystals. 

The country-pop collaboration, "Meant to Be," recently made history as the longest-running Billboard chart-topper.
