There is so much more to this redhead than the stereotypical fiery attitude and sharp tongue. Reba McEntire is a legendary country star who has sold more than 55 million albums worldwide, had 34 number one hits, won two Grammys, 35 various music awards, nine People's Choice Awards, wrote an autobiography, starred in her own TV series and a show on Broadway. Needless to say, the last 33 years of McEntire's career have been prolific. But she isn't stopping there. McEntire released her 31st album, Keep on Loving You, this past August. The album reached the top of the charts within the first week. But with all of this fame, McEntire sees herself as the same Oklahoma girl she was born and raised. Staying in touch with her roots is the primary drive for writing the down home tunes that her audience can relate to and has also been the lifeline for her musical career.
