Reba McEntire’s Opry Anniversary

McEntire recently celebrated her own Grand Ole Opry anniversary. The Oklahoma native became a member on January 17, 1986.

“The Grand Ole Opry is a home,” McEntire says. “It’s a family. It’s like a family reunion, when you come back and get to see everybody.”

Unlike some other artists, McEntire waited almost a decade after her debut to become a member. She first performed on the iconic stage on September 17, 1977, although that night didn’t go quite as planned.

“I was supposed to sing two songs,” McEntire recalls (via The Tennessean). “But they came to me when I got there and said, ‘Oh, we’re going to have to cut you down to one song because Dolly Parton just pulled up into the driveway and she’s going to take one of your songs.”

McEntire has been an integral part of the Opry since her debut. In 2018, she inducted Dustin Lynch into the Opry. And in 2024, she invited Wilson to become a Grand Ole Opry member.
