LeAnn Rimes warns against childhood stardom

Singer LeAnn Rimes has revealed that childhood fame is something she would not recommend to anybody. 

During an interview with People magazine, she explained that it's a really difficult thing to navigate, but she has accepted that it was part of her journey: "I would not recommend it to anyone, but it's my path, so I've accepted it and learned from it. I can really appreciate it at this point - all of it."

Rimes also opened up about her new album, 'Remnants', and explained that when she first began experimenting with genres it was strange because people like you to stay in your lane, but she doesn't believe in boundaries in music:

"It's about allowing yourself to fall apart, picking up the pieces, moving forward and building yourself in a way that's solid, which I've gone through. It was healing."

"I don't see boundaries in music. Those lines have always been erased for me. But, especially as a child, how do you expect a kid to grow up and not express themselves and change? I guess they did. But that wasn't going to happen. I guess I've always been a bit of an outsider and a rebel in that way of, 'I'm going to sing music I love to sing.' But this place where I'm in now, I feel very settled; it feels really good."
