Bailee Madison & Lauren Alaina Help Distribute Backpacks With Blessings In A Backpack

Bailee Madison and Lauren Alaina have fun at a Blessings in a Backpack event held at Whitsitt Elementary School on Wednesday (August 28) in Nashville, Tenn.

The 19-year-old actress and the 24-year-old singer and DWTS contestant helped hand out 475 Vera Bradley school bags that included a Blessings in a Backpack weekend kit and enjoyed a carnival of back-to-school festivities.

Bailee and Lauren met at the event for the first time and Bailee completely fangirled.

“I have been a fan of hers for so long, and I’m just, I’m not playing it cool, but that’s fine,” Bailee said in Lauren‘s Instagram Story.

“Well I like it, we don’t have to play anything cool because we’re going to a carnival,” Lauren added.

Lauren is heading to Panama City Beach, Fla. on Friday (August 30) for another Blessings In A Backpack event.
