Country Music: Miranda Lambert Has a Feisty Side


Miranda Lambert is the most dangerous-sounding woman in country music. She's also No. 1 with a bullet. So you have to ask: Miranda, are you packing heat?

"Can't tell you," Lambert twangs. "That's why it's called a concealed weapon. How about you just be nice?"

Asking Lambert about her armament is a legitimate question. The country starlet's new album, "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend," opens with the raging "Gunpowder & Lead," in which she sings of delivering shotgun-pellet payback to an abusive man. She wrote the chorus's kicker -- "I'm gonna show him what a little girl's made of / Gunpowder and lead" -- during a concealed handgun class back home in East Texas.

"Miranda has lived in gun culture all her life," explains her father, Rick, a retired cop and private investigator. "I'm a firearms collector and hunter. She was taught to shoot when she was a little bitty girl. So it's natural for her to put a gun in a song.

I have no idea what she sings, but call me a fan.

We need more high profile people like her.

I would like her if even if she wasn't a gun nut. She is talented. She is gonna do alright. She ain't no Dixie Chik

There! Fixed it for ya!

They are crazy about her back home in the small town of Lindale Texas. I was working up that way (before I moved to the big city) and every where you go there is a posterboard or billboard, she even has a little shop that sales items from her tour!! Glad to hear that she is a high profile CHL holder, cant say that I care much for her music though.

I never heard of her before I'm more of a Rock and Roller myself, Curiosity got the best of me and I downloaded "Gunpowder and Lead" Real nice song and a great voice.

I became a fan of Miranda the first time I saw her........sing. Good article.

I can honestly say that I have lived in different parts of Texas for my entire life and NEVER heard someone with that much of a southern accent She makes Longtooth sound like a Bostonian.

Wow, something very appealing about an attractive woman with a gun

Gotta love Miranda. She makes great music, she's got plenty of spunk, I love the way she talks, she's cute as can be and now, apparently, she also likes guns. Hard to beat that.

Her song "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" mentions a gun as well. "I brought my pistol but I ain't some kinda fool"...although I don't particularly care for that song. I've got both of her albums. I think she'll do very well for herself.

I wouldn't read too much into that. She is also pictured with other members of "The View" including Elizabeth Hasselbeck (sp?), who is as opposite of Rosie as you can get.

Hehehehe, I love the guns question in this interview...

18. Rapid fire:
-Beer or whiskey? Bacardi Clear Rum!

-Longhorns or Aggies? Too tough to call...probably have to go with the Longhorns.

-Highways or dirt roads? Dirt roads...unless we're in the bus! (laughs)

-How many guns do you own? Enough.

-Favorite Mexican food joint? Whichever is closest! I love Mexican.
