PAL Posted September 15, 2006 Posted September 15, 2006 LeAnn Rimes (born Margaret LeAnn Rimes August 28, 1982 in Jackson, Mississippi) is one of the most popular American country music singers. To date she has sold more than 37 million albums at only the age of 24, making her one of the modern legends today. Rimes emerged with the single "Blue" when she was thirteen years old. Her crossover hit "How Do I Live" which spent 69 weeks on the U.S Hot 100 charts, more than any other song in American history, and sold more than 3 million copies, making her the first country artist to sell that many copies of a single. She has won an American Music Award, two Grammy Awards, three Academy of Country Music Awards, and four Billboard Music Awards. When a Dallas disc jockey and record promoter, met Rimes, he was so impressed by her talents, he took her under his wing and began cultivating a plan to break her into the mainstream. The cornerstone of Mack's plan was a song called "Blue," which he had written in the '60s. Mack claimed that he had written the tune for Patsy Cline, but she had died before she was able to record the song. In 1996, LeAnn Rimes burst out of nowhere with her debut single, "Blue," which immediately captured the attention of country fans across America. It wasn't just the fact that her rich, powerful vocals were remarkably similar to Patsy Cline Quote
