LeAnn Rimes was born in Jackson, Mississippi, but raised in Garland, Texas. Before she was two she was belting out songs like "You Are My Sunshine" and "Getting To Know You." By age five, she told her parents that she wanted to pursue a life in show business.
By age seven, LeAnn made her stage debut in a Dallas musical production of "A Christmas Carol" and soon after the preteen powerhouse was singing "The Star Spangled Banner" at Dallas Cowboy games and opening for Randy Travis. By age 11, LeAnn recorded her first album, All That, which was released on a small, independent label. The fateful LP featured an early version of what would become her signature song, "Blue." Though the album was only available in local Dallas stores, the record created enough music industry buzz to attract the attention of Curb Records president, Mike Curb. In 1996, LeAnn Rimes recorded and released her remarkable major label debut album, Blue.
