LeAnn Rimes opened up about the “resilience” she’s had after entering the country music industry as a teenager.
Rimes, who was 13 when she released her hit record “Blue,” reflected on the past 25 years in a new interview with “CBS Mornings.”

“Oh, there’s been many a times in my life that I could’ve easily chosen a different way out or just not come back from where I was,” Rimes continued. “But I have such a fight. That rebellion that has gotten me in trouble many times has also saved my life. Truly saved my life, many times.”
Rimes’ upcoming album, “god’s work,” explores her spiritual journey. The “How Do I Live” singer explained that her music has a lot of “power” and makes her emotional.
“It has a lot of power. It makes me cry,” she said. “I think that’s part of my gift, is being able to help people feel. I know for me, it’s the things I can’t say, I sing.”
