Evans Talks About Fashion, Music ... and More
When I talked to Sara Evans last week about her upcoming album, Real Fine Place, she said right off the bat the songs were written while she was pregnant and her hormones were raging. Having more confidence, she said she wrote sexual and romantic love songs to her husband, Craig Schelske.
Sara had just returned from New York's Fashion Week. She'd been touring with Alan Jackson, playing nightly for 20,000 fans, but when she stepped out of the limo for the Luca Luca show, there was all these cameras flashing when she heard someone exclaim, "Oh, it's nobody." She was not allowed to exit the same door as Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan.
Her favorite song on the album -- and mine, too -- is her next single, "Cheatin'." Like Trisha Yearwood's "Georgia Rain" and Faith Hill's "Mississippi Girl," Sara honors her home state with "Missing Missouri." When she performs the song for Missouri natives, they do the wave -- and Sara chokes up.
She relates to the TV series, Desperate Housewives. With two children in diapers, she likes to make fun of herself, so she chose Loretta Lynn's "One's on the Way" for the show's upcoming soundtrack album. A second tour with Brad Paisley is on tap, and Evans suggests she and Brad may be the next Loretta and Conway.
Like her friends Faith Hill and Martina McBride, Sara says she never sleeps. No time for pedicures and manicures, either. "Women are multi-taskers," said Sara. "Craig can only do one thing at a time. If he tends to the kids, that's all he does ... whereas I hold the baby in my lap and do a radio interview."
She adds, "It's most important to keep marriage and family together. I am a child of divorce, and it's devastating. I have a 12-year marriage. And the way I see it, the way to an amazing marriage is having sex ... lots of sex. Sex keeps the marriage young. And a woman should maintain herself for her husband and stay attractive. I like to put the kids to bed, have a glass of wine on the patio or by the fireplace, and I ask Craig, 'What do you need of me?'"
