Born in Oklahoma, McEntire began singing in her teens with her brother Pake and sister Suzie as "The Singing McEntires." While attending Southeastern State University, McEntire studied Mozart and music analysis. "I took piano and violin," she recalls, "but it turned to fiddle when I went back home." It was in 1975, while singing the national anthem at the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City, there McEntire was spotted by songwriter Red Steagall. He convinced McEntires' mother to bring the singing dynamo to Nashville, where her demo tape earned her a contract with Mercury Records. Today, McEntire appears in over 150 show dates each year. After several successful music videos, including one for her hit song, "Whoever's in New England" and co-hosting "Good Morning America" and the "The Home Show," the crossover to acting was the next career step. In addition to her performance in "Tremors," McEntire wrote several songs for the film's soundtrack. Reba Nell McEntire (born March 28, 1955) is an American country music artist.

The album brought her breakthrough success, bringing her a series of successful albums and number one singles in the 1980s and 1990s. McEntire has since released 25 studio albums, acquired 34 #1 singles, and 28 albums have been certified Gold, Platinum or Multi-Platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America. Her album For My Broken Heart broke ground for female artists in country music, as it was the first album recorded by a female in country music to be certified double-platinum (selling two million copies) by the RIAA. In the early 1990s, McEntire branched into film starting with 1990's Tremors. She has since starred in the Broadway revival of Annie Get Your Gun and starred in her television sitcom, Reba (2001–2007) for which she was nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a Television Series Musical or Comedy. She has sometimes been referred to as "The Queen of Country", In the United States, she ranks as the seventh best-selling female artist in all genres and is the second best-selling female country artist of all time.
