June 25, 2007 — If you've noticed a difference in the way Reba McEntire is dressing for her concerts these days, you should know that Brooks & Dunn's Ronnie Dunn may be to blame.
Ronnie tells Dial-Global that he made a deal with Reba: he would lend his vocals to her upcoming duets album if she adjusted her stage wardrobe to his liking.
"I told her 'I'll do that duets thing with you if you put your blue jeans back on and you put your rodeo buckle on and your boots and you come out there.'" Ronnie says. " I said,'You get rid of that red sequined gown.'"
Ronnie says his wife, Janine, was embarrassed at his audacity, but later on they were both surprised when Reba sat down to breakfast with them and said, "Just for you, I'm gonna tell you right now, I'm wearin' blue jeans and boots and a T-shirt when I perform these days.'"
