Wright has had a number one hit with 'Single White Female' and has even been romantically linked to hunky country singer Brad Paisley.
The country crooner made headlines a few years back for her song, 'Bumper of My SUV' because it was alleged that members of her fanclub were posing as US military/vets and requesting the song to radio (to increase radio airplay). The claim has not been substantiated but as soon as this theory was discussed, radio play for this single completely vanished.
The 39 year old singer is the first country artist to come out. Of course the timing of this announcement coincides with Chely Wright's new CD (Lifted Off the Ground) and book (Like Me) (links below).
