McEntire busy with clothing, TV show, tour
Reba McEntire is the hardest-working woman in show business.
The red-headed Oklahoma firebrand has just finished taping the fourth season of her hit sitcom “Reba,” launched the Reba clothing line through Dillard’s department stores, and begun a 25-city American tour (including Verizon Wireless Music Center in Noblesville on May 13) that will have her singing in front of a half-million people.
The tour, which features fellow country stars Brad Paisley and Terri Clark, began last month and continues through mid-June. When it ends, McEntire, who has hit No. 1 on the country chart 30 times, will voice a character for an animated remake of “Charlotte’s Web,” sing on a movie soundtrack for Disney and play the part of Nellie Forbush in a one-night charity performance of “South Pacific” at Carnegie Hall.
That’s just the first half of this year.
“I never went out looking for any of this stuff,” she says by phone from her Nashville office. “...I have the choice of either taking the opportunity to be a part of it, or I pass on it. And I usually say ‘Boy, if I don’t take it, it’s gonna go to somebody else.’ ”
