Margaret LeAnn Rimes (born August 28, 1982) is a popular American country music singer. Born in Jackson, Mississippi, Rimes emerged with her first single, "Blue", when she was just thirteen years of age. She is most recognized for her crossover hit "How Do I Live" which, according to the Billboard charts, is one of the most successful songs in American music history. While country singer Trisha Yearwood's version of the song won a Grammy in 1998, Rimes' version outsold Yearwood's by 30 million and is considered to be the more popular song. Rimes' other notable songs include "Can't Fight the Moonlight" (from the movie Coyote Ugly) and American Idol favorite, "I Need You". |
