Miranda Lambert opens up about her unconventional upbringing | Music City Minute

Aug 22, 2024, 3:10 PM

Miranda Lambert recently stopped by Bunnie XO’s “Dumb Blonde” podcast. During the interview, Lambert lifted the lid on her wild upbringing. The “Wranglers” singer explained her parents were private investigators and even recruited her for a few cases. Once, when she was three, she had to make friends with another 3-year-old to get dirt on the target parent. Then, at around 15, her mom had her dress in her cheer outfit, and pretend to sell cookies for a squad fundraiser. Once Miranda made contact with the target, she was told to ask to use their restroom in order to snoop around. Wow, talk about being put in awkward positions. I wonder if her parents ever paid her for her help…especially if her efforts provided good information?
I’m Sheena, and that’s your Music City Minute.
