Miranda Lambert: What Turns Her Into A ‘Little Girl’
Miranda Lambert knows better than most that summer is a busy time in a country singer’s life. They travel all over the country, playing in outdoor arenas, festivals, and other shows for fans. It’s one of her favorite seasons.
Another reason summer is Miranda’s favorite time of year is that the girl loves fireworks.
Lambert told us a few years back, “I love holidays in general, but Fourth of July is…summer is my favorite time of year, so Fourth of July is probably one of my favorites because I…my favorite firework is sparklers.”
She adds with a smile, “It always it brings out the little girl in me. I always ask for sparkle
rs (laughs) for Fourth of July.”
This weekend, she plays shows in Minnesota and Michigan.

Lambert has released another new song in anticipation of her forthcoming album from her new label, Big Loud.
The new song is called “Dammitt Randy” and doubles down on her signature theme of empowerment as a woman liberated about reclaiming independence.
Miranda told us about the new song: “This song came out of a conversation the night before Jon Randall and I went into the studio to make this album. We were talking about how excited we were to be starting this journey with a new label family (Republic and Big Loud) and how supported we felt by them, which turned into chatting about situations where you might not feel so supported by someone—in this song’s case, an unappreciative Randy.”
She added, “So, this one’s for anyone with a Randy they need to move on from.”
The song’s chorus lyrics are: “Yeah now that I made it to the other side / I hope you’re countin’ singles in your double wide / Smokin’ cigarettes like they’re goin’ out of style /Turnin’ me up on your radio dial /You gave up ’til the very last minute /Now that I’m gone I’ve got your attention.”
