Miranda Lambert is a Grammy award-winning country artist who also has a strong passion for animals. (I mean, she owns seven rescue dogs herself!) BuzzFeed sat down with her during this year's CMA Fest to answer some of your most burning questions. All questions were submitted by members of the BuzzFeed Community.
1. What was a favorite thing of yours that your dogs have chewed up? —tessac47f20c107
Miranda Lambert: My dogs have chewed a lot of interesting things. The only Louis Vuitton purse I ever owned was given to me, and it lost its handles really quickly. So I gave up on nice things. My dogs are more important than nice things, I realize!
2. If you had to collaborate with a non-country artist, who would it be? —sheenpuck21
ML: There’s a lot, I think, but I’m a huge fan of Beyoncé. I think every girls’ answer would be Beyoncé!
3. What is your favorite mixed drink? —katiek42c53dae8
ML: My favorite mixed drink is Tito's Vodka and La Croix.
4. What was your favorite album or song to record? —theresab44860c798
ML: I don’t have a favorite song or album because they’re all my babies. They’re like my dogs. But I really enjoyed the process of this last record called The Weight of These Wings because I took my time on it and spent over a year writing for it, and I sort of got to explore my songwriting in a different way than I ever have before.
5. Do you have any music on your phone that would shock people? —lg1
ML: I am a huge Audioslave fan, so I’d say that’s pretty different than the rest of the stuff on my iPod — old school!
6. What’s your favorite place to eat in Nashville?
ML: My favorite place to eat in Nashville is actually a bar, it’s called Winners. There’s Winners and Losers — those are my hang out spots in Midtown, but they have delicious chicken tenders and awesome pizza.
7. What inspired you to start your organization, MuttNation Foundation?
ML: My passion for dogs and rescue dogs and mutts. If you are not a dog lover yet, you should become one. And I would say adopt, don’t shop — love a shelter pet!
To learn more about how to adopt these insanely adorable puppies (or many others looking for a home), visit MuttNation Foundation.
