Watch Kacey Musgraves Serve Sultry & Sweet in ‘Mexico Honey’ Music Video

Kacey Musgraves is cranking up the heat this summer. On Wednesday (July 22), the eight-time Grammy winner released the official music video for “Mexico Honey,” a sensual visual that finds the country star embracing romance under the sweltering Mexico sun.

Directed by Running Bear (Alexa Stone and Stephen Kinihopoulos), the video was filmed in Mexico and follows Musgraves and her onscreen lover through a sublime getaway. We begin by seeing her “lining [her] lips in the rearview,” sitting in the front seat of a car. Shortly thereafter, we are in the middle of what appears to be a karaoke bar with Musgraves singing the song onstage in her hot pink shorts.

We then see the country singer share intimate moments with her love interest throughout the video: they’re cozied up in bed, laughing together in the bathroom, and stealing hugs and yearnful glances. They hold hands as they stroll through the desert on foot and by car. Right before the second chorus, the video cuts to a playful shot of Musgraves holding a colorful parrot.

According to a press release, the visual is “just as much a tribute to the captivating beauty of Mexico as it is the passion and experiences that have inspired her there.”

“Mexico Honey” appears on Musgraves’ sixth studio album, Middle of Nowhere, which debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 following its May release. The LP was led by the witty single “Dry Spell.”
