The famous American country singer LeAnn Rimes began singing at the age of 3, and at the age of 11 she recorded her first album, which included a song written entirely by a girl. Since then, Lee Ann's talent has continued to develop, at the age of 14 she received her first Grammy for Best New Vocalist. However, the girl not only writes and performs songs, she successfully tried herself as an actress and screenwriter, she has already more than ten projects on television.
We can say that a talented girl was already born with the makings of a star. She performed her first song at the age of 3, and already at the age of 7 she first appeared on the stage, playing in the production of "A Christmas Carol". A little later, Lee Ann will open all the performances of the Dallas Cowboys with her charming singing.
At the age of 11, the singer recorded her first solo album, which was distributed only in the music salons of Dallas. However, her author song "Blue" attracted the attention of the producers of "Curb Records", who offered the girl a more serious job. Soon, in 1997, Lee Ann released the song "You Light Up My Life", which debuted simultaneously on three Billboard Magazine charts: Pop, Country and Contemporary Christian. No country singer has had such a success.
The best songs
In the same year, the singer, in collaboration with Diane Warren, recorded the pop ballad "How Do I Live", the performance of which made Lee Ann world famous. The song became the first multi-platinum country music hit and topped the Billboard Hot 100 for almost 69 weeks. An almost incredible achievement for a young fourteen-year-old singer!
The next year, Lee Ann tried herself in a new capacity and starred in the television project "A Holiday in Your Heart". Interesting fact: the film was based on the book of the same name, which was also co-authored by Lee Ann. But the work in the cinema did not distract the girl from the music. In the same 1997, she received the American Music Award, 2 Grammy awards, 3 Academy of Country Music awards and 4 Billboard Music awards for her work.
Another triumphant round of the singer's career began in 2000, when she sang Diane Warren's ballad "Can't Fight the Moonlight". The song first appeared in the hit film Coyote Ugly, in which Lee Ann played a small role. In 2001, the singer recorded the album "I Need You", which included this popular ballad. The album proved to be very popular and its circulation quickly exceeded 8 million copies.
Since then, almost every year, the singer delights fans with a new hit: in 2002, the album "Twisted Angel" with hits such as "Life Goes on" and "Suddenly". In 2003, she recorded the track "We Can" for the hit film Legally Blonde 2.
At the age of 21, Lee Ann recorded a collection of her greatest hits, which instantly became popular. In total, over 3 million copies of this album have been sold.
Lee Ann performs a lot in recitals and tries herself as a director and screenwriter. Given the singer's youth, the list of her achievements will soon be continued.
The personal life of the singer
Lee Ann's first marriage was not very successful, the relationship with her husband, dancer Dean Sheremet did not work out and in 2009 they divorced. Soon the girl fell in love with the talented actor Eddie Cibrian, whom she met on the set of the film "Northern Lights". They got married in 2011 with Los Angeles and have not parted since then. In their family, there are two more sons Eddie from his first marriage, whom the lovers bring up together.
