The only Rimes that bites

  • September 4, 2007
  • Popjustice

Before we get going on this, it's probably best to reassure everyone that as a rule we're not generally fans of Leann Rimes but, for some reason, the new Leann Rimes single is quite brilliant. 

It might have a lot to do with this video, which is a bit like 'Bad Girls' but with more suspender belts.

Would it be right to speculate that this return to country might have something to with the fact that no one took her very seriously when she tried to be a pop singer, then a woman called Carrie Underwood came along and sold millions authentic country records in America?
