Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian was born on August 28, 1982, in Jackson, Mississippi, United States. Her parents, Wilbur Rimes and Belinda Butler, relocated the family to Texas when LeAnn was six years old. From a young age, she showed a keen interest in music and began taking vocal lessons during childhood.
As a child, Rimes dedicated herself to improving her singing abilities, supplementing her vocal lessons with performances in musical theater productions in Dallas, Texas. Her interest in country music was sparked after a performance on the television talent show Star Search, where she impressed audiences with her vocal abilities. At the age of nine, she began touring and sang “The Star-Spangled Banner” at the opening of various football games, gaining attention for her stage presence at a young age.
Within five years, Rimes released three independent albums, showcasing her potential as a country artist. She eventually caught the attention of DJ and record promoter Bill Mack, who played a crucial role in bringing her talent to a wider audience. In 1994, she recorded the album All That, which included Mack's song “Blue.” Her rendition of the track would become a breakthrough moment in her career.
In 1996, the single “Blue” was re-released under major label Curb Records and became a national hit. That same year, Rimes won two Grammy Awards—Best New Artist and Best Female Country Vocal Performance—making her the youngest Grammy winner in history at the age of 14. She also received the Horizon Award for Best New Artist from the Country Music Association. Her self-titled album, LeAnn Rimes, released in 1999, topped the Billboard Top Country Albums chart.
