Dustin Lynch Inducted Into Grand Ole Opry

Dustin Lynch is now a member of country's most storied club.

(Nashville, TN)  --  Dustin Lynch is now a member of the Grand Ole Opry, but that's not the only reason why he's celebrating. 

The rising country star was inducted last night by his longtime crush, Reba McEntire.  

"I cannot believe what just happened. Reba McIntyre just gave me a hug. Wow. That is the perfect girl and you were right," Lynch said on stage.

He said it was the second most nervous he's ever been on stage. 

Lynch, who's performed several times at the Opry stage since 2012, got word last month that he'd be inducted.
