The Transformation Of Trisha Yearwood

Trisha Yearwood is a country music queen, but she's also an everyday American girl. Over the course of her decades-long career, she's maintained the same authenticity and relatability that she's had from day one. Here's a look at her stunning transformation. Patricia Lynn Yearwood was born on September 19, 1964 in the farm town of Monticello, Georgia. In her song "XXX's and OOO's," she romantically reminisces about tying "hair up in ribbons and bows" and "a picture of her mama in heels and pearls," and those images aren't far from the truth. Her mother Gwen was a schoolteacher, while her father Jack was a banker, and the two fostered their daughter's love of classic country singers like Patsy Cline and Hank Williams. Trisha's parents also inspired her love of cooking, and their small community helped her keep a good head on her shoulders. As she told Good Housekeeping in 2010, "I don't know if I was a good kid by nature or if I was well-behaved because I realized that if I did something wrong, my parents would probably know about it before I got home." Yearwood was a good student, as she was voted "Outstanding Senior Girl" in her high school graduating class in 1982. Everyone in her town knew she had big aspirations, and she hit the road soon after turning her tassel.
