Music video

The music video for "Famous in a Small Town" features Lambert singing in a town square mixed with scenes of people's every day lives in a small town, including a diner and high school. All of these scenes are shot in black and white. Lambert is seen playing her guitar and singing on a red carpet with camera flashes and neon signs, to contrast with the small town image, and is shot in color rather than black and white. This is her second video to be shot in both black and white and in color, after "New Strings" in 2006. In Lambert's own words, " [Famous in a Small Town] is really, (really) how it was growing up in Lindale."
