Reba McEntire pulls no punches about the women of country music: she says they put on a better show.

In a genre that -- until very recently -- has been dominated by men, those sound like fighting words. "No, they're truthful," corrected the singer.

"I've watched many, many decades of entertainers," she said. "And I will go watch females and be totally entertained. And when I watch the males, I love their singing and their lights. But when the girls come on, you better know that they've come up with something new and innovative, and they're going to give you a show."
