Tammy Wynette | The American Music Award of Merit | 1996 American Music Awards
Tammy Wynette (born Virginia Wynette Pugh; May 5, 1942 - April 6, 1998) was an American country music singer-songwriter and one of country music's best-known artists and biggest-selling female singers.
Wynette was called the "First Lady of Country Music", and her best-known song, "Stand by Your Man", is one of the best-selling hit singles by a woman in the history of country music. Many of her hits dealt with classic themes of loneliness, divorce, and the difficulties of life and relationships. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, Wynette charted 23 No. 1 songs. Along with Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton, she is credited with having defined the role of women in country music during the 1970s.
Wynette's marriage to country music singer George Jones in 1969, which ended in divorce in 1975, created a country music "couple", following the earlier success of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash. Jones and Wynette recorded a sequence of albums and singles that hit the charts throughout the 1970s and early eighties.

Say what you will George and Tammy loved each other till death. They did marry others but that truth still goes.

[@cathyprosser1050]

I still enjoy so much listening to Tammy's beautiful, distinctive voice and watching the videos out there of her concerts and interviews and awards. She deserved more than any other that title of First Lady of Country Music. To this day, no one demonstrates the poise and grace she brought to the stage. She was always so beautiful, so elegant. I admired her very much. She is singing with the angels now and I look forward to the day I can hear her singing again and to meeting her in Heaven. ❤

[@robking1240]

11:00 Good thing O.J. wasn't presenting the award.

[@dannydougin3925]

Pam Tillis? Ugh... worked with her once..... *never* again will I!

[@clapolla]

In what capacity? She seems to think she's up there with the great dames of Country Music (Loretta, Tammy, Lynn Anderson, Dolly, etc.), but she needs a reality check. Pam Tillis is merely a footnote in country music.

[@shirleyskipper3471]

She aged way to fast.

[@Jordanhubbard1]

Yea she was being drugged

[@johnkaspar8423]

One of the h grragest hrratest yhj
