During his show on Sunday, June 20, at the York State Fair, the “Worst Way” singer spotted a young man in the front row holding up a sign. Green, now known as a bit of a duet savant thanks to collaborations such as “You Look Like You Love Me” and “Don’t Mind If I Do” with Ella Langley, and “Half of Me” with Thomas Rhett, couldn’t ignore the opportunity.
