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.

Being a strong woman is very important to me. But doing it all on my own is not.

I was singing a lot of waltzes. And I was with Jerry Kennedy, my producer, and he was playing me some songs, and he said, hey, I want to play you this song that I'm going to get Jackie Ward to record.

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.

I was one of the very first people to ever do a video in country music.

Sometimes I hate how much I love him But everyday I love him more
