She also previews songs from her new album, including the hit single "Strange," and her current single "Consider Me Gone." In a casual question and answer session, McEntire also reveals what its like to be regarded as an influence on today's new artists and what she would be doing if she weren't in the entertainment business.

Reba's "Strange" has become her second consecutive Top 10 single of 2009 and the video has gone Top 5 on CMT. The multimedia superstar was also recently recognized by Billboard, Country Aircheck and Mediabase as the biggest female hit-maker in country music history.

The two-time GRAMMY Award-winner is also an acclaimed film, TV and Broadway actress. Reba signed with The Valory Music Co. in November 2008. The move reunited the multimedia entertainer with industry leader Scott Borchetta, now President and CEO of Big Machine Records and sister label The Valory Music Co.
