Reba McEntire recently passed Dolly Parton as the No.1 female on the all-time Billboard list with 56 Top 10 hits. McEntire’s partnership with Brooks & Dunn on “Cowgirls Don’t Cry” helped her reach this goal. Recently the song hit No. 9 on the Billboard Country singles chart, bringing McEntire to number 56.   Other ladies on the list include Tammy Wynette, Loretta Lynn, Barbara Mandrell and Patsy Cline. McEntire talked to GAC about what an honor it was to be included on this list and to surpass Parton.  “Dolly is one of my idols and good friends,” she said according to gactv.com. “To even be mentioned in the same sentence as her is huge to me. To be able to accomplish a 56th Top 10 hit while singing with my buddies, Brooks & Dunn, makes it all so much sweeter.”
