Miranda Lambert panicking about releasing her fourth album

Miranda Lambert is thinking about releasing another record! The country star — whose third album, Revolution, launched her from a highly regarded country artist to one of the top acts in the business — says she’s making a point to not let the sales and trophies distract her from doing good art.

“I’m trying to not concern myself with anyone or even compare myself with myself, because when I have success like this record, now I’m really panickin’ goin’, ‘OK, now what am I gonna do?’” she says.

“I’m gonna not try to compete with myself or anyone else. I’m just gonna keep rollin’ with it and doing what I do. And if it sells 30,000 copies but I love it, then I’ll be happy because I love it — I mean, I won’t be happy happy, I’ll probably be mad — but I just wanna make sure that I don’t ever compromise and that I always stick to what I know because it’s working. And if at some point it stops working, then I’ll revamp and I’ll rethink what I’m doin’.”

Miranda — who got engaged to fellow crooner Blake Shelton in May this year — recently revealed she’s looking forward to walking down the aisle.

“I’m looking forward to getting married and just doing it, ya know? … We’ve been engaged six months now already and it’s kind of flown by, but just taking that next step and kind of becoming a woman and moving on in life,” she said.

Shelton says he’s letting Lambert do all the planning.

“Last I heard [the wedding date] was in the spring, but that’s a constantly changing event,” he said.

“Miranda is going to do this exactly how she wants to do it and I’m staying the hell out of the way.”
