Reba McEntire

What impresses me about Reba McEntire is not the 75 million records or the 25 number-one hits, it is her refusal to stay in one lane. She conquered country radio, then walked into network television and made a sitcom carry her own first name, then took the stage seriously enough to win a Theatre World Award. That is not versatility for its own sake; it is an Oklahoma ranch kid's work ethic applied to every platform offered to her. Decades into her career she still sounds unmistakably like herself, which to me is the true mark of a queen: the crown never changed her voice.
