Country superstar/actress Reba McEntire recently wrapped the finale of her sitcom, "Reba," and is now setting off on a North American tour that starts with a handful of April/May dates and proceeds through the summer.
The Red-Headed Money Maker will play shows all over the US and Canada--including fairs, festivals and casinos--beginning April 13 in Florence, AZ. Details are listed below.
McEntire is also preparing to release a "duets" album this year featuring artists including Ronnie Dunn, Faith Hill, Kenny Chesney, Rascal Flatts, Keith Urban, Don Henley and Kelly Clarkson.
McEntire's most recent set, "Reba #1's," was released in 2005. The two-disc collection comprises the singer's 33 No. 1 hits along with two new songs, "You're Gonna Be" and "Love Needs A Holiday," both of which are streaming at McEntire's MySpace page.
Her latest studio album, 2003's Platinum-selling "Room to Breathe," spawned Top-10 country singles "Somebody" and "He Gets That From Me."
Dubbed "The Queen of Country Music," McEntire has sold more than 49 million records in a career that spans three decades, 29 albums and a truckload of awards, according to a press release. Her mantle holds 15 American Music Awards, 12 Academy of Country Music Awards, seven Country Music Association trophies, two Grammys and the CMT Johnny Cash Visionary Award.
As an actress, McEntire has also won awards for her Broadway debut in 2001's "Annie Get Your Gun" and for her No. 1 CW network sitcom, "Reba," which ran from 2001 to 2007.
In addition to her roles as country star and actress, McEntire is a successful author, a longtime supporter of Habitat for Humanity and she has her own clothing line, which is sold via Dillard's department store and her Reba Wear website.
