Biography

Margaret LeAnn Rimes (born August 28, 1982 in Jackson, Mississippi) is a popular American pop music singer. Rimes emerged with her first single "Blue" when she was just thirteen years old in 1996. 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, spending 69 weeks on the charts, more than any other song in American history. While country singer Trisha Yearwood's version of the song won a Grammy in 1998, Rimes' version outsold Yearwood's by thirty million.
