Margaret LeAnn Rimes
, known simply as LeAnn Rimes
, (born August 28, 1982) is an American singer-songwriter and actress, best known for her work in country music. She is best known for her rich vocals similar to legendary country music singer Patsy Cline, [1]
and her rise to fame at the age of 13, becoming the youngest country music star since Tanya Tucker in 1972. [2]
Rimes made her breakthrough into country music in 1996. Her debut album, Blue
, reached #1 on the Top Country Albums chart and was certified "multi-platinum" in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America. The album's lead single of the same name (originally intended to be recorded by Patsy Cline in the early 1960s) became a Top 10 hit. With immediate success, Rimes attained widespread national acclaim for her similarities to Cline's vocal style. When Rimes released her sophomore studio effort in 1997, You Light up My Life: Inspirational Songs
, Rimes went more towards country pop material, which would set the trend for a string of albums that would be released into the next decade. [3] LeAnn Rimes is the youngest person to win a Grammy, and the first country singer to win the Grammy Award for Best New Artist.
Since her debut, Rimes has won many major industry awards, which include two Grammys, three ACMs, one CMA, twelve Billboard Music Awards, and one American Music award. [4] In addition, Rimes has also released ten studio albums and four compilation albums through her record label of 13 years, Asylum-Curb, and placed over 40 singles on American and international charts since 1996.

Early life
Rimes was born Margaret LeAnn Rimes in
Pearl, Mississippi in 1982 to Belinda and Wilbur Rimes. Her family later moved to
Garland, Texas in 1988, where Rimes was raised. As an only child, Rimes was showered with attention by her parents. She was singing by the age of two, was enrolled into vocal and dance training, and by the age of five was performing at local talent shows .
[5]
Rimes initially began her career in
musical theatre, performing in a
Dallas, Texas production of
A Christmas Carol,
and almost landed the lead part in the
Broadway production of
Annie.
However, after appearing on the network television competition show,
Star Search,
Rimes decided to pursue a career in
country music. Following her national television appearance, Rimes made a number of appearances on
Johnnie High's Country Music Revue
in
Arlington, Texas, which garnered the attention of national
talent scouts.
By the age of nine, Rimes was already an experienced singer. She toured nationally with her father and also regularly performed
a cappella renditions of "
The Star Spangled Banner" at the opening ceremonies of the
Dallas Cowboys football games. In order to bring his daughter more national attention, he began recording her under the independent label, Nor Ja Vak when she turned eleven. She released three albums under the label between 1992 and 1996.
Rimes was discovered by Dallas
disc jockey and record promoter,
Bill Mack. Mack was impressed by Rimes' vocal ability, and over the following three years, he also made various attempts to bring Rimes to a mainstream level. The center of Mack's plan to bring her success was his self-penned composition, "Blue," which he had written 30 years before in the early 1960s. Mack claimed that the song was intended to be recorded and made a hit record by Patsy Cline, but she had been killed in a
plane crash before ever recording the composition. By 1995, Mack was able to gain Rimes a contract with
Curb Records, after record executives heard Rimes sing "Blue."
Music career
1996: Blue
After signing with Curb, Rimes re-recorded a new version of "Blue" that was to be released on her debut studio album on the label. In 1996, the new version of "Blue" was released as a single, peaking at #10 on the
Billboard Country Chart.
[6]
While Curb was releasing "Blue," a claim was also sent out that Mack had been waiting over 30 years to find the perfect artist to record "Blue." However, the story was later found to be an exaggeration, as it was discovered that "Blue" had already been recorded by three different artists. Mack himself and
Kenny Roberts both released versions of the song on
Starday Records in the 1960s. In 1993, Australian artist
Catherine Britt released her own version as a single in her native country. The story, though, was continually spread throughout the national press, adding to the idea that Rimes was the successor to Patsy Cline's legacy.
Rimes's album
Blue
was also released in 1996, and sold 123,000 copies in its first week, which was the highest figure in
SoundScan history up to that point. The album peaked at #1 on the Top Country Albums and debuted at #3 on the
Billboard 200 albums chart, eventually selling a total of four million copies in the United States and 8 million copies worldwide.
[7]
Allmusic considered the album to be "delightful" and that it could "help inspire other young teens."
[8]
Rimes followed up the single with several charting country singles from her 1996 album, starting with "
One Way Ticket (Because I Can)," which reached #1 on the Billboard Country Chart in 1996. She also released a duet single with
Eddy Arnold from the album, a remake of his 1955 hit "Cattle Call."
The album's other hits included the Top 5 "
The Light in Your Eyes" and the minor hit "Hurt Me."
With the album's success, Rimes received many major industry awards. In 1996 she won the
Country Music Association's "Horizon Award," becoming the youngest person to ever be nominated and win a Country Music Association award. The following year she was awarded
Grammy awards, one for
Best New Artist
and another for
Best Female Country Vocal Performance
for "Blue."
1997–2001: Pop crossover
thumb, Germany on September 23, 2004.
In 1997, Rimes released a compilation of previously recorded material under the Nor Va Jak label,
Unchained Melody: The Early Years.
The album mainly consisted of cover versions, ranging from Country to Pop covers, including songs originally recorded by
The Beatles,
Whitney Houston,
Bill Monroe, and
Dolly Parton.
[9]
Rimes' version of the
title track became a major country hit in early 1997 and helped increase sales for the album.
In September 1997, Rimes released her follow-up studio album to
Blue
entitled
You Light up My Life: Inspirational Songs
. The album covered classic inspirational songs, such as "Clinging to Saving a Hand" and "
Amazing Grace". It also featured pop music remakes of songs such as
Debby Boone's "
You Light up My Life" and
Bette Midler's "
The Rose". The album was a departure from Rimes' previous releases as it contained more
Adult Contemporary-styled music than Country.
[10]
The album sold over four million copies in the United States, certifying 4× Mulit-Platinum by the
Recording Industry Association of America.
[11]
The album contained the single, "
How Do I Live", which became a major Pop hit on the
Billboard Hot 100, reaching #2.
"How Do I Live" set a new record for becoming the longest-running single in Billboard Hot 100 history, spending 69 weeks on the chart.
The song was originally recorded for the film
Con Air
, along with a version also recorded by
Trisha Yearwood. Yearwood's manager at the time had told the press that Rimes's version sounded "too pop." Therefore Rimes' version received little country airplay (only reaching #43) and was rejected for the film. Yearwood's rendition was released to country radio shortly afterwards, peaking at #2 on the Billboard Country Chart in 1997, becoming the country hit instead of Rimes's version.
[12]
Rimes released her third album for Curb in May 1998,
Sittin' on Top of the World.
The album leaned more progressively towards Adult Contemporary and mid-tempo
Pop music. It included Pop material written by
Carol Bayer Sager and
David Foster.
It also included a remake of
Prince's "
Purple Rain" and was produced by her father. The album was given mixed reviews. Allmusic gave the album two out of five stars
[13]
Rolling Stone
said Rimes vocal styles, "holds her own in the more popular style of
Mariah Carey and
Celine Dion, wherein a spectacular voice upstages a song, grins and goes on about her business."
[14]
Upon its release,
Sittin' on Top of the World
debuted at #2 on the Top Country Albums chart, and #3 on the Billboard 200,
[15]
and sold over a million copies in the
United States, certifing "Platinum" in sales by the
RIAA.
The album spawned the #4 Country hit, "
Commitment," the Top 20 Pop hit "
Looking Through Your Eyes," and the #10 country hit "
Nothin' New Under the Moon."
Rimes released her fourth studio album for Curb,
LeAnn Rimes
in October 1999, a collection of country standards.
[16]
The album covered songs mainly by Patsy Cline — which included "
Crazy," "
I Fall to Pieces," and "
She's Got You" — that were primarily taken from her
12 Greatest Hits
album. The album also covered
Marty Robbins's "Don't Worry" and
Kris Kristofferson's "
Me and Bobby McGee." The album included one new song, "
Big Deal." The song gained many positive reviews. Allmusic called the song, "a return to her roots" and "a salute to one of her idols, Patsy Cline." The album in general received much praise. Allmusic called the album one of her "better" efforts, since they had disliked her previous releases.
[17]
Entertainment Weekly
gave the album a positive review and said that Rimes's voice, "dares listeners to take note of what is missing in her interpretations -- the gutsiness and gut-wrenching urgency of performers who felt what they sang."
[18]
The album was a major success like her previous releases, debuting at #1 on the
Top Country Albums chart, topping the country albums chart for two weeks. In addition, it also peaked at #8 on the
Billboard 200 albums chart.
[19] [20]
The album also sold over one million copies in the United States, and was certified "Platinum" in sales by the RIAA.
The album's new song, "Big Deal" was the lead single off the album, and became a Top 10 country hit that year, peaking at #6.
Also in 1999, Rimes recorded a duet with
Elton John for the stage musical,
Aida
titled "
Written in the Stars."
The song became a Top 40 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. The album would spawn a second single, a cover of Cline's "Crazy" that was released outside of the United States.
In January 2001, Rimes released her sixth studio album,
I Need You,
an album aimed at the Pop market. The album topped the Top Country Albums chart for one week, and also peaked at #10 on the Billboard 200.
I Need You
did not garner praise from many critics and was mainly given negative reviews.
Rolling Stone
gave the album two and a half out of five stars and called the album, "synthetic-feeling."
[21]
Despite very little praise from critics, the album was sold well, certfying "Gold" in sales by the RIAA.
Rimes would later go on to publicly disown the album, which she stated was compiled together from studio outtakes her father had produced. The album's lead single, "
I Need You" — which was characterized by Allmusic as having similarities to that of Adult Contemporary and Pop music —
[22]
was originally recorded for the TV movie,
Jesus.
The song became a Top 10 country hit and also a major Pop hit, reaching #11 on the Hot 100. Also included on the album was the song "
Can't Fight the Moonlight," released from the soundtrack of the film,
Coyote Ugly.
The song was released as the album's second single in 2001, and by February 2002, the song also became a crossover Pop hit, reaching #11. "Can't Fight the Moonlight" won Rimes a
Blockbuster Entertainment Award
for "Favorite Song from a Movie."
In mid-October 2001, Curb released a compilation of Patriotic and Inspirational songs titled,
God Bless America,
in order to benefit the disaster recovery for the
September 11 attacks. It included the
title track, as well inspirational songs such as "The Lord's Prayer" and "The Sands of Time."
[23]
2002–2004: Popularity decline
thumb, Germany.
Rimes released her sixth album in 2002 titled
Twisted Angel,
which contained more adult material.
After battling managerial control over her career the previous year,
Twisted Angel
became the first album released by Rimes that was not produced by her father.
[24]
Instead, Rimes executive produced the album. A month following the album's release,
Twisted Angel
was certified "Gold" by the RIAA, her second Gold-certified album.
The album received mainly negative reviews by most music critics and magazines. Allmusic stated that the album could possibly "alieniate her from her original fans" and "the songwriting is a little uneven."
Rolling Stone
gave the album two out of five stars, stating that the album sounded too "country-pop crossover."
[25]
The album would peak at #3 on the Top Country Albums chart and #12 on the all-genre Billboard 200 chart.
[26]
Three singles were spawned from the album between 2002 and 2003, however none of the singles were Top 40 hits on the country or pop charts. The lead single, "
Life Goes on," reached the Top 40 only on the
Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart, peaking at #19. The second single, "Tic Toc" was a Top 40 Dance club hit in 2003.
The following year when Rimes turned 21, she released a
Greatest Hits
compilation in November.
The album recapped Rimes' major hits under Curb records from "Blue" in 1996, to "Life Goes on" in 2002. The album peaked at #3 on the Top Country Albums chart and #24 on the Billboard 200 in November.
[27]
[28]
Featured on the album was the single, "We Can," which was included on the soundtrack of
Legally Blonde 2
in July 2003.
The album would eventually be certified "Platinum" in 2007 The following year in October 2004, Rimes issued her first holiday-themed album titled,
What a Wonderful World.
2005–2007: Return to country
In January 2005, Rimes released her seventh studio album,
This Woman,
her first album of contemporary country music in many years.
Although the album received mixed reviews from magazines and critics, it was Rimes's best-selling album in over five years,
[29]
reaching #3 on the Billboard 200 and #2 on the Top Country Albums chart in 2005,
[30]
selling more than 100,000 copies within its first week. Rimes explained to the
Chicago Sun-Times
that the album helped mature her as a person, "I have 10 years of experience, so it's tough to get anything past me in this business. I've become a very strong woman because of all I've gone through, good and bad."
This Woman
would eventually be certified "Gold" later in 2005, after selling more than 500,000 units nationwide.
The album's singles were Rimes's first Top 10 hits on the
Hot Country Songs chart in five years. The three singles released from the album — "
Nothin' 'Bout Love Makes Sense," "
Probably Wouldn't Be This Way," and "
Something's Gotta Give" — all peaked within the Top 5 on the country charts between 2005 and 2006.
From the album, Rimes was nominated for a Grammy award for
Best Female Country Vocal Performance
for "Something's Gotta Give." In addition, she was also nominated for an
American Music Award for "Favorite Female Country Artist." In 2006, Rimes recorded a cover version of
Barbara Mandrell's "
If Loving You Is Wrong (I Don't Want to Be Right)," for a tribute album to Mandrell's career entitled,
She Was a Country When Country Wasn't Cool: A Tribute to Barbara Mandrell.
Rimes also would record a track for
Disneyland's fiftieth anniversary celebration album entitled, "Remember When."
In summer 2006, Rimes released the studio album
Whatever We Wanna,
which was released exclusively outside of the United States and Canada. It was originally planned on being released in North America, however due to the success of
This Woman,
it was never released. The album spawned minor hits in the
United Kingdom, including "And it Feels Like" and a duet with
Brian McFadden entitled, "Everybody's Someone". The album leaned more towards
Pop Rock and
R&B music instead of country.
[31]
Rimes took a two-year break, and then released her next studio album in October 2007,
Family
. The album was a mix of country, pop, and rock music, and included a duet with
Bon Jovi, "
Til We Ain't Strangers Anymore".
Family
was the first album released by Rimes in which every track was co-written by Rimes herself.
Rolling Stone
said the songs on the album are "uneven" and rated it three and half out of five stars.
[32]
Allmusic gave
Family
four out of five stars and said that the album, "illustrates her range as a singer along with some true strength as a writer."
[33]
The album helped nominate Rimes for the
Academy of Country Music's "Top Female Vocalist" award in 2008.
The album's lead single, "
Nothin' Better to Do" was released in mid 2007, and peaked at #14 on the Billboard Country Chart before the end of the year. The album has released two singles to date; "Good Friend and a Glass of Wine" and "What I Cannot Change."
[34]
In 2008, Rimes toured with
Kenny Chesney where she opened every show on his 2008
Poets and Pirates Tour
, along with other artists on select dates such as
Brooks & Dunn,
Keith Urban,
Sammy Hagar,
Gary Allan,
Big & Rich, and
Luke Bryan.
[35]
In late 2008, Rimes was nominated for a Grammy award for
Best Female Country Vocal Performance
for "
What I Cannot Change," the third single from the album.
[36]
2008-Present
In 2008, she recorded
For Good
with
Delta Goodrem for the
Wicked 5th Anniversary
album.
[37]
LeAnn teamed up with
Joss Stone for a
CMT Crossroads
special aired in fall 2007.
[38]
In summer 2009, Rimes announced plans for a new studio album to be released later in the year. She began performing songs on her current tour. New songs that have been confirmed tracks are, "You've Ruined Me", "God Takes Care of Your Kind", "Criminal" and "Better Off".
[39]
Musicianship
Vocal ability and musical stylings
Since her debut in 1996, Rimes's voice and vocal style have often been compared to and identified with
Patsy Cline. Cline showed distinctive emotional expression in most of her material. Rimes has also used distinctive emotional expression in many of her songs, most notably her first single, "
Blue", which was sung in the style of Cline. Rimes's vocal similarities to Cline had brought wide interest to the idea that Rimes was the successor to Cline's legacy, and brought her novelty appeal. Many music critics have argued that Rimes's vocals were only a reproduction of Cline's original sound, while others have disagreed.
Allmusic has called Rimes's vocals "rich and powerful."
Her vocal ability has also brought Rimes to comparisons to past teenage country stars, including 50s country star
Brenda Lee and 70s country star
Tanya Tucker. Rimes is also known for choosing mature material that is beyond her age range. In her first album, Rimes recorded such material as
Deborah Allen's "My Baby", whose lyrics provocatively say, "my baby is a fulltime lover, my baby is a full-grown man."
Other material such as
Diane Warren's "How Do I Live" have also been considered too mature for Rimes's age and was the main reason why the song was not chosen to be used in the soundtrack for the film
Con Air
.
Influences
Rimes has given credit to artists from various music genres, mainly from the genres of
country and
pop. She has stated that
Barbra Streisand,
Wynonna Judd, and
Reba McEntire have been primary influences on her career.
[40]
Rimes has stated the main influence on her career is Patsy Cline. She has covered many of Cline's hit songs since the beginning of her career. Her 1999 self-titled album is primarily a tribute to Cline, as Rimes recorded five out of ten songs for the album that had been hits for Cline ten years before.
Film and television
After beginning to date actor Andrew Keegan in 1998, Rimes said to the press that she had some ideas about possibly getting involved in an acting career. Rimes later moved to
Los Angeles, California later in the year with her mother to pursue an acting career.
That year Rimes played a small role in the
Made for television movie,
Holiday in Your Heart,
which is based on a book she had helped write. For participating in the film, Rimes was awarded the "Rising Star" award from the
Lone Star Film & Television Awards.
[41]
She made her official film debut in 2001, making a cameo appearance towards the end of the film,
Coyote Ugly.
In addition, she also recorded four songs for the film's soundtrack, including the Top 20 Pop hit, "Can't Fight the Moonlight."
In 2005 Rimes hosted the country music television competition,
Nashville Star
on the
USA television network. However she only held the position for one season after deciding to depart from the show's cast.
In early June 2007, she was chosen at the last minute to record the leading song for the soundtrack of
Evan Almighty
called "Ready For A Miracle" (previously recorded by
Patti LaBelle). The song can be heard in the movie, during the end credits, and in the trailers of
Evan Almighty.
[42]
Rimes had in the movie
Good Intentions
with her friend Elaine Hendricks which is filming near
Atlanta,
Georgia.
[43]
Rimes plays Meg Galligan in the
made for TV movie,
Northern Lights
, based on the
Nora Roberts novel of the
same name. The film aired on the
Lifetime network on March 12, 2009.
[44]
Personal life
On May 21, 2000, Rimes filed a
lawsuit against her father, Wilbur Rimes, and her former manager, Lyle Walker in
Dallas, Texas. Rimes claimed that her father and former manager took over seven million dollars from her in the past five years. Rimes also alleged that both men made unreasonable fees and took advantage of Rimes's label,
Asylum-Curb in order to acquire financial gain. Rimes sought unspecified damages because her attorney was not sure of how much money had been lost in the past five years. According to Rimes's lawyer, her mother hired two accountants to investigate how much was taken from Rimes's fortune, and it was estimated that the men acquired around eight million dollars in royalties.
In November 2000, Rimes filed a second lawsuit against her label, Asylum-Curb. Rimes wanted permission to be released from the contract that was signed by her parents on Rimes's behalf when she originally signed with the label in 1995. She also wanted her label to turn over the rights of her music, video work, and publishing interests, and omit all of her recordings that were currently being distributed at the time of the lawsuit. Part of Rimes's legal battles ended in December 2001, when Asylum-Curb started a new contract with Rimes.
In 2002, Rimes's lawsuit with her father was "settled on undisclosed terms."
Rimes reconciled with her father for the wedding.
[45]
Amid the legal battles, she fell in love with backup dancer Dean Sheremet. The two met when he was chosen to dance during Rimes's hosting of the 2001
Academy of Country Music Awards. After her first date with Sheremet, Rimes told
InStyle Magazine
that, "This is the guy I want to marry,"
which they did in 2002. However in July 2009, the couple separated and in September 2009, Rimes announced they were divorcing.
[46] [47]. Rimes is currently dating her
Northern Lights co-star
Eddie Cibrian.
[48].
In 2008, she opened up about her lifelong struggle with the autoimmune disease
psoriasis. She participated in a
PSA to raise awareness about the disease.
[49]
Rimes lent her voice to the 2008 song, Just Stand Up. The proceeds benefited Stand Up to Cancer. As a result of SU2C fundraising endeavors, the SU2C scientific advisory committee, overseen by the
American Association for Cancer Research was able to award 73.6 million dollars towards cancer research.
