Gretchen Wilson is one of the few contemporary country artists who grew up in the destitute realm she sings about. Hailed as the savior of country music, Wilson crafts songs that are unapologetically twangy in an era of Nashville pop. In 2004, Wilson's outlaw attitude and soulful rasp made her the first female country star in two years to hit Billboard's #1. Gretchen Wilson's mom was pretty young when she gave birth to her daughter (she was only 16). She grew up in trailer parks. After finishing eighth grade, Gretchen Wilson had to work as a 14-year-old bartender and cook at the bar her mom worked at.
