Why she might be annoying:

    She had ten years of dance under her belt. Then she grew six inches in a year, and… hilarity ensued.
    ‘I grew up on top 40 pop.’ (Specifically the new class of Mouseketeers.) ‘I didn’t know what country music was, which is so funny because I grew up on a farm in East Tennessee.’
    Her father is a sales manager for a radio station, while her mother works in marketing for Bible publications.
    She also cites Shania Twain, Beyonce, and Kelly Clarkson as inspirations.
    She is a close friend of Taylor Swift (with whom she performed on the ‘1989’ tour).

Why she might not be annoying:

    She wrote her first song, aged 12, in honor of her mother.
    She was also a fan of Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra.
    She regards Keith Urban’s ‘Stupid Boy’ as her introduction proper to the genre.
    Before settling on the music scene, she was thinking about a career in either cosmetics or veterinary medicine.
    Not since Wynonna Judd has a female country artist put her first three singles at the top of the Hot Country Songs charts.
    Not since Carrie Underwood has a female country artist put her first single at the top of the Country Airplay chart.
