Video: Miranda Lambert to be featured on VH1′s “Behind the Music” tonight
Country music star and Tishomingo resident Miranda Lambert will be featured on a new episode of VH1′s biography series “Behind the Music” premiering at 9 tonight on the cable network.
In the preview clip, the show delves into the first meeting of Lambert and fellow country music star Blake Shelton, who married May 14.
Along with Lambert and Shelton, the show will feature interviews with Lambert’s parents, Loretta Lynn, Sheryl Crow, Kenny Chesney and Hillary Scott from Lady Antebellum.
Here is the episode summary:
Grammy Award-winning artist, Miranda Lambert, 27, fell in love with music at a young age and was determined to one day be a part of the country music world. Growing up in rural Texas, Miranda watched her parents lose everything when their private investigation business went under, causing the Lambert’s to live completely off their land. Starting out just shy of 18, Miranda hit the East Texas bar scene, playing gigs at a variety of rough and tumble watering holes. Having to deal with local drunks and barely making ends meet, Miranda was determined to make her mark in a “man’s world.”
But in 2003, her big break came when she tried out for the new reality TV series “Nashville Star,” landing third place and a potential record deal. With the possibility of stardom so close, Miranda kept her tough Texan attitude as she rose to the top, demanding artistic control of her debut album “Kerosene.” Miranda delivered the label what she promised, hitting the country music charts at No. 1 and followed that success with a second album that did exactly the same thing, all by the age of 25.
Even with her fast-paced rise to the top, Miranda found time to fall in love with fellow country star, Blake Shelton. In February 2011, the country music couple celebrated Miranda’s success as she received her first Grammy Award for Best Female Country Vocal Performance for “The House That Built Me” off her third and must successful album to date “Revolution.”
Viewers watching this episode of “Behind The Music” will get the exclusive first look at interviews with loving husband, Blake Shelton, Miranda’s parents Rick and Bev, “Nashville Star” judge Tracy Gershon, former Sony Nashville head Joe Galante, music legend Loretta Lynn and fellow country music stars Sheryl Crow, Kenny Chesney and Hillary Scott from Lady Antebellum.

Thanks for the sensible critique. Me & my neighbor were just preparing to do slightly research about this. We got a grab a book from our region library but I believe I learned more from this post. I’m extremely glad to see such wonderful information being shared freely out there.
