I've never turned my back on country music.

My mama is my best friend. We have fun, we can talk about anything, she always is on my side but really quick to tell me when I'm wrong. That's a true friend. She's loyal, smart, witty and intelligent. She loves family and loves to travel. All the things I love!
Reba McEntire
A good song has to have a great melody, and the lyrics have to touch my heart. Now, if it's just a little toe-tapper, got to make me feel good somehow or another, or when I sing it I can't make you feel good.

That's what is so great about being able to record a 13-song album. You can do a very eclectic group of songs. You do have some almost pop songs in there, but you do have your traditional country, story songs. You have your ballads, your happy songs, your sad songs, your love songs, and your feisty songs.

So, we come out to Los Angeles. And we met with every network. We met with show runners, directors, writers, everything. And what we had an idea for, they didn't like. And what they had an idea for, we didn't like. So, we went home.

I have learned a lot about myself and come to deal with a lot of things that, at first, bothered me.
Reba McEntire
And I was mischievous. I was always into something. So when I got good attention from the singing, I knew that was probably where I needed to land.
Reba McEntire
I don’t think there's ever been a point in my career where I've said, 'I've made it.' What does that mean, 'I've made it?' Made it to what? If you say, 'I've made it.' then are you finished? I don't want to be finished. I don't want to quit.
Reba McEntire
I grew up in southeastern Oklahoma on a working cattle ranch, and it was always very romantic to me: The West, the cowboy, the Western way of life.
Reba McEntire
I totally love to act. I don't care if it's a musical, a comedy. I just like to work and interact with other people.
Reba McEntire
If I'm not the one thing you can't stand to lose, If I'm not that arrow to the heart of you, If you don't get drunk on my kiss, If you think you can do better than this then I guess we're done. Let's not drag this on, Consider me gone.
Reba McEntire
There's a lot of power in putting it out in the universe. It's telling your subconscious mind, 'This is what's gonna happen.'
Reba McEntire
I love to sing with different people.
Reba McEntire
You've got to stay current and up with the competition. The main thing, though, is finding the greatest songs you can possibly find.

Never have doubted it, even when the plane crash happened. I wasn't mad at God. I just knew that there was a reason that I didn't know about why it happened.
Reba McEntire
So, I took lessons, and I love to shoot now. It's a lot of fun.
