Reba reveals stories behind vintage videos
By ANIKA VAN WYK
Reba McEntire will be in Calgary next week, so the timing couldn't be better for tomorrow's broadcast of Vintage Reba on The Nashville Network.

Fans can get pumped for the Oct. 17 show at the Saddledome -- which also features David Kersh, Terri Clark and Brooks & Dunn -- by watching McEntire discussing the making of some of her favourite videos.

On Vintage Reba -- which airs tomorrow at 8 p.m. on \ -- the country star appears to really enjoy talking about what made each video special to her and recounting quirky stories about their filming.

It's also fun to check out her varied hairdos -- there are good- and bad-hair days.

She says her favourite videos are And Still, Fancy and Is There Life Out There?

And Still was filmed in Guatemala.

She admits they were a tad nervous returning from the remote set location because they were told there was a good chance that bandits would board the bus and demand their valuables.

McEntire admits she was thrilled when pop star Huey Lewis (of Huey Lewis & the News) agreed to portray her husband in the Is There Life Out There? video.

Even aging for The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia wasn't a problem.

"It was a lot of fun and a great experience," she says.

In the dramatic video, McEntire plays both a young woman and a senior citizen. She didn't mind seeing herself as an older woman, but she wasn't too fond of having a plaster mould made of her face for the makeup process.

The superstar also openly discusses her friendship with current tour partners Brooks & Dunn, as well as Vince Gill.

"Vince is just like my brother," she says of the tenor, who appeared as her drill sergeant in The Heart Won't Lie.

The TNN special also shows the redhead hanging out with Trisha Yearwood, Martina McBride and Linda Davis during the making of On My Own.
