Being in LA for the Ellen show was Mason's first time on a plane, and when asked if he was enjoying his first trip to the West Coast, he replied:

"Yeah, but I’m a country boy. And out in the old country, all we do is bale straws of hay, and next thing you know you’re sittin’ under a tree takin’ a nap with your hat down and a weed in your mouth.”

Now that he become a global superstar, Ellen had a surprise for the youngster:
