BARBARA MANDRELL – 71 YEARS OLD

This country music icon has a whole Tennessee theme park associated with her—well, that’s her old mansion which was turned into a tourist attraction. Barbara Mandrell’s mother was a housewife and musician, and his father was a navy veteran who had experienced World War II. Barbara Mandrell’s father is also a musician and entrepreneur. He has managed Barbara Mandrell’s career for more than 30 years.

Barbara found her fame in the group the Mandrell Sisters before going solo. This move brought her plenty of success in music and even in TV, where she had various shows throughout the ‘70s and the ‘80s. In 1984, she was involved in a vehicular accident that left her in recovery for quite some time. We hope that she’s taken extra precautionary measures after, such as insurance, to make sure she’ll be making music for a long time.
