She had a teen pregnancy at age sixteen, and now she is reinventing herself in country music and she is kicking. But she has a special coming out on TLC on June called When the Lights Go Out, and she is the most authentic, sweet person ever. I cannot wait for y'all to hear this interview. So y'all give it up

Yes, it is okay, great, okay, great recording. I have recorded a couple of interviews and it didn't record. Do you go back and do them again? It was Cree Harrison's and Kelly Picklers. Oh my god, it was like they're so sweet, Cree, let me redo it. So that was so nice. But yes, now, my my biggest fear now

is that they don't record. But so we go okay, okay, So I want to start with some would you rather okay, are you ready for this. Okay if you well, okay, this isn't I would do weather. This is a question if you could be the pet dog to any celebrity, who would it be and why? Maddie, do you have an answer to any celebrity? I think it would be the President because they have, like you know, they're usually like really high bred and well to do dogs, you

know what I'm talking about. So you're like kind of the elite dog and you're like almost sort of royalty you are, so they're for I would think it'd have to be that. That would good answer. Yeah, Okay, I'm with you on that. I feel you. Girl. What about you, Maddie, what celebrity would you want to be a dog too? Who are the cool like young people we like? Right now? Um? She we just went to the Billboard Awards and she

actually got to meet Demi Lovada and Denny. Demi Lovada was like be on nice to her and took time to talk to her as a little girl and as a person. And so that's number one in her book right now because she like, yeah, because she got like real she was like really really sweet to Maddie. So Maddie really loved that so that's our new favorite right now. Okay, I like her and she sings awesome songs too. Yes, she sings awesome and she is awesome. She's totally awesome. Okay,

Demmilda love her? Okay. Would you rather be hairy all over completely bald? Completely? I hate I hate hair, and I hate wet hair. My gosh, wet hair, Like I can't do you shave yours or anything? Oh no, no, like me, like my like me, Like personally, I'm probably like I'm always being told I need to shave my way, but I'm talking about like long wet hair, like in

the sink and stuff. It's the world. So I would think if you have it all over you and it's in the tub or something, that I would have a meltdown. I agree, And just hairy nous. Yeah, it's like on your head and everything else that's all fine, but like on your body, I just would prefer nothing. I'm with you. Yeah, I like a clean slate. Okay. If you could go through a whole day, would you rather go through a whole day with a very visible panty line or lipstick

on your teeth and not knowing either one? And this is like, say, a day of interviews or day of TV. I think panty line because most of the time in interviews and stuff like that, you're sitting down, so you can kind of like hide your panty line or something. But if you're on your teeth, you're gonna look like, first of all, who do you have around you that's not telling you that you have something on the cheese? I think pantyline. Okay, I agree with you. Okay, so

I'm gonna start from the beginning. You're from kent Loot, kent Wood, Louisiana. Yes, I'm from kent Wood, but I live in Hammond, Louisiana. Now it's okay, half far a part of those two, Like, okay, it's not too bad. What's it like living in Hammond Hammond Ham And yeah, what's life like in Hammond? Um. It's very family oriented and it's where my daughter's school is, it's where my husband's,

my husband's businesses. It's a great mixture of like still has the historic downtown love but also you know, we have Target and we have all that kind of stuff. So that way, but it's not too big, it's just it's just right. It's just like the best mixture and the people are nice. Yes, the people are nice. They are that's great. It's it's nice when you're your roots too. Exactly. That's where my support system is. So that's where your fami, grand mom and dad live. Yeah, so I mean my

dad travels a lot, my mom travels a lot. But your home base is Louisiana for us, and that's great. So then you can travel a lot, like you're hopping into Nashville this week, but you always go back. Exactly. It's nice to like have home be separate from work, especially when she's in school, because that way I get to just come here focus on my work, but then go back home and just be a mom and just be a part of the community. Look at you being all smart figuring out life. Yeah, you know, you gotta

have you gotta have that separation you do. Yeah, it's important. Okay, So you, Tristan also have as helping us with the camera too. You were born in to the entertainment industry basically because your sister's obviously Brittany and you grew up on tour with her. Basically, did you show up like I watched your went on your website and like you were like getting manicures and petticures like on a flight. Yeah, hang it out backstage. Everyone always are like, how is

it like to grow up like that? And for me it was the only thing I knew. So to me it was my normal. I think everyone has their definition of normal. That was my normal. My sister worked and I got to travel and see the world. Did you

go worldwide with her? Yes? I would go overseas and you know we do all that, but I would I wouldn't be able to go for too too long because I did have school, so usually it was like summer or like i'd get I'd get like, you know, some excuses from school to where I'd have to do the work. Though still so for me growing up that way, it was just kind of a really a big blessing. I find That's why now I find hotels and tour buses like a second home. It doesn't feel like adjusting to me.

There's something about it that feels like my childhood. It feels comfortable. Yeah, for sure. So where are your favorite places that you traveled as a kid and did you understand what was happening when you were that young seeing all that or was it, like you said, just your normal. It was not it was it was really I didn't understand. But at the same time, I was really like I was. I was so confused that my sister was famous. I knew she's saying, but I didn't understand why she was famed,

Like I didn't like. My version was wait a minute, so she's like Mariah Carey. I don't understand, Like I didn't get like why she at the same things they're at. So that was confusing to me. But my favorite places we went was Germany and actually was really beautiful, Mama, wasn't it Germany where the animals would like come up to you? Yeah, so we would like the animals would like come up to you in Germany. It was just gorgeous, something I remember vividly, like as a kid remembering that.

And then also, um, we went to Neva's West Indies for a vacation and it was just it was so great because we brought the family and everything. So it's how old were you when you started traveling like this? Um, I just say about my daughter's age seven eight, So Mattie's kind of the same way, just growing up seeing all this. Yes, and uh, I mean she was born

with you know, that kind of world around her. So she didn't understand for the longest time, while like all the entertainers weren't kin to her, she would like see them on she'd see them on TV. And so that's my auntio, Like what do you know what I mean? Like she didn't get like, it's funny how children don't relate. But you know that it's different for other people, Like they just think that, oh, everyone sings, everyone does exactly,

and that's what you see exactly. So when did it click for you that, okay, this is like different than other people's lives. And when did it click for you that you loved it and wanted to do it yourself. Um. I think the thing was while Brittany was doing all her stuff, I was able to still really be a kid, and so it was just fun for me. I didn't

think about it too much. But then whenever I started working, which I was like nine and a half, I started working, That's when I understood, Okay, it's not all just fun and games. They're sacrifices. There's responsibility. I loved it and I enjoyed it, especially as the young girl being able to go out there and you know, entertain people. But you start to understand the grasp of like, okay, yeah, you don't just go do this or go do that things or you know, this is this is an adult world.

You're working and even though you're kids. So I think for me, that's when I understood, oh, this is like a job. This is what she does. It's not just something that we're on. And so your first role was in Crossroads, you're the younger version of her. Is that when you realize that you loved acting because you started in acting, I actually loved just playing skits and roles and like making up. I made up characters and I

would make up things just on tour. Actually, so it wasn't oh yeah, because you said you were always dreaming stuff out and like so creative. Yeah, I would make up characters. And then I guess Nickelodeon must have seen some footage from one of Britney's documentaries or something, and when they saw that, they asked me to come in an audition for All That. That's exciting. Yes, I went an audition for All That with some characters I've made up,

some scripts called all That. Yeah, it's called all That, And um, that's where I started and they liked it. And that was nine years old for you. Yes, and one of the characters I made up actually made it onto the show. Who it was Louise mcgilla cutty. And who's Louise her name on the show. Her her name on the show was Filma Stunks. They had to change it because I called her Louise mcgilla cutty mcgilla cutty.

I don't know where I got that name from that but apparently apparently that name was already used in something, so we had to change the name. Louise mcgilla cutty was always already used. Yes, So Nickelodeon, you know they look into the legal side of things. As a kid, I was just being silly, but um they changed the name with Thelma Stump. And who was Elmo? Was she

like she was an eighty four year old bodyguard? And so I would my version, you know, my version of it was my granny Lexi, who I loved dearly, and then my sister's security guard who was Big Rocks. So I would combine the two and act like I was the old lady like on tour protecting, and I'd make up all these funny things. So what would she act like I mean, she just was like had she was very sarcastic, very dry, and um didn't care who you were, what you did. She just was like you know that way.

So then when on All That, what they did is they had me guarding the entrance to where celebrities would be coming in and I wouldn't let him in. So that was their version of it, which, oh, that's awesome. It was really fun. The nine year old You're like vending part of your TV show. I know, I don't know, I should have still got a producer rights, right, come on, I mean that's what I'm talking about. Yeah, but it

was fun, It was really if. That was a really cool experience being on All That, and that led to Zoe one oh one yes, and that was a really big show on Nickelodeon. Would you want what best actress

Nicolodeon actress? Like two words for it was the Kid's Choice Award Young Artist Award, Yeah some yeah, but I definitely remember winning the Kid's Choice Award because at that time in that world, that was like our award, you know what I mean, we only had one award show that was kind of cool, So to me, it was really cool to win that Best Actress It was, yeah, and it was a fan voted thing, so I think it was, like, I'm pretty sure it was a fan voted thing, but I don't really know. But I you know,

I got the whole little blimp and everything. It was really cool. So was that fun for you to like start your own career because you had obviously grown up in it and now you're starting your own. I think because I grew up around it, I really didn't. I never thought anything different. I knew I was creative. I knew I wanted to express myself in a creative way. But I think it twelve thirteen. You don't know the best way you want to do it. You don't know.

You just know you're you just know you have it any you want to get this energy out of you. So as a child, that's how expressed it. But obviously is I got older and wanted to figure out how I wanted to tell my story and what kind of future I want to have. As an adult, you can identify what your creative outlet is. As a child, you do everything, But for me, as an adult, music was the way that my creative outlet made the most sense. Okay,

so I want to get to your country music. So but what's exciting I think it's so cool is you have a documentary coming up on TLC which is airing June, and oh the trailer is like so good, thank you, so excited I am. I worked on this for a while in secret, which was hard for me because my fans like when is the new music coming? When every and I'm like wanted to be like, this is what I'm working on. This is what I'm doing. But you know, to get content that's real and takes time to show

your story, honestly, it takes time. You can't just you know, put some silly stuff together. So for me, um, it was really important. People met me as a child, and I think that there has been to disconnect. People want to know, Okay, we met her as Zoe, she had a child at a young age, she's pretty sister. And then seven or eight years go by and then people are like, wait, who are who? Who is she? We

just know where as a kid. So I think it's really important for me to bridge the gap, that's to say, this is who I am as an adult, and this is how I got here, this is my story. I know I stayed away for a while, but this is them. This is my way of introducing myself is Jamie Lynn the grown up And that's kind of that's kind of important about the way you want to put it out there. Yeah, and especially in country music, people want to know your story.

They want to know why you sing the words you sing. And I think it was important for me to finally say, Okay, let me let him into who I really am, so that way people understand where you know, they understand that it's not just Zoe, there's there's a person behind it, and this is what's been going on in the past few years. That why they get to meet me as a person. Had because one of your lions in it that I thought was so awesome was you said, I'm

not just what does it put he said? He said, I'm not just a child star, I'm not just somebody's sister. I'm not just a team mom. This is the real story. Were people hard on you for a while, like and and when it all happened when you had Maddie and got pregnant. I feel like people were ruthless a little bit. Yeah, I think that because of the entertainment industry people see us as just these figures and not people, real people,

and it sounds really cliche. But I was a kid who, um, was in a situation that was very scary, already very scary for my whole family, and I think, what do you mean, just found out I was pregnant, and so why was it just because you're so young? You know what I mean? So it was like, it's a very scary situation in the first place. So I think that people had their opinions, and rightfully. So I was a

child star who became pregnant, so I understand that. But I think that, um, you know, I wanted to take full responsibility and also I needed to make a decision that I had to sleep with every night. So I just kind of tucked away and went away from it because I knew they were gonna be hard on me, so I just didn't want to I didn't want to put myself in any more situations to give them any more demo. Yeah exactly. Is that why you kind of took a breather for a while. Yeah, I wanted to know.

I wanted to first office back and raise my daughter, which she's the cutest, so congratulations and being a great mom, great daughter. But that was important. That's really mature of you at such a young age to like have the wisdom inside to be like, Okay, I'm gonna just like take some time out of this industry. Even though your career was like on fire, you took did what was right for you, which is a big move. Well, I

think that, Um. I think it was one of those situations where I wasn't just thinking about myself anymore, and I need to figure out who I was as a person because I'd been in the industry for so long and you get so caught up and everything. Even at that age that it was important for me to step aside, figure out who I was as a woman, and also figure out what kind of future I was really going to make for me and my daughter. So what'd you come up with in those year is that's when I

started writing, But that's when you fell in love a songwriting. Yes, when she was three months old, I came to Nashville for the first time and I started writing and and now she's gonna be eight this June. So basically i'd come for the first year of her life. I'd come here one week out every month and just right, and

it just was so it felt so good. You love songwriting? Well, I loved the fact that, for the first time, coming from a world where I was, you know, supposed to be perfect and all these things, it was so nice to get in a room where they said, no, you could say whatever you want, this is where you tell your story. And I felt so freeing to me. So was this like the first time you could just express and it's through music, so you don't actually have to

come out and say exactly through a song exactly. And it was really freeing to me and really cool that I could do that, and it felt really safe at the same time. So when my daughter turned about a year old, I moved to Nashville and I came here and I just really focused on writing and figuring out who I was as an artist. Did you always know you wanted to do country music. I always knew that I wanted to tell my story wors So when I came to Nashville and I started writing music, it just

let itself to country music. Boys has such a like a beautiful country undertone to it. I mean, you can go up in Louisiana. So I mean I think that like that's just a part of who I am, and it's just a part of you know. What you grow up around is what you are. And so I think that it just felt like home. It really did. So who are some of the writers that you love? Because I know you're working with Corey Crowder and he's producing your project. He is Corey Crowder has producing my prod.

Love him. He's so just so easy to be around, which is so nice. There's no pressure. He just really cares about what makes you happy and what's gonna build you up. But Liz Rose is like my music mom. I say it a hundred times over. She is he real girl crush, She's everything nothing. She probably hasn't had some touch in writing, you know, And I feel like to having a woman like that on your side, who is just there because they want to support another young

girl who's doing she does. And I think that that's been a big, big help for me, Um, having someone like her around me as well. So do you feel like Nashville is really where you came into your own? Um? Yes, I would say that when I moved to Nashville, it was really it was me becoming an adult, figuring out my own life. Every single day. It was me becoming a working single mom as well. You know, I was here with my daughter and I was learning how to work and be a mother. Was as you juggle that. Um,

I had a great support system as well. I had I had everything scheduled out really well. But I also had um one of my friends who moved here for a little bit and was kind of like her nanny, So when I'd go to work during the day, she'd be with her. And that was another reason I decided to move back to Louisiana though, is because I wanted my daughter to grow up where I grew up and have me mall taken her gymnastics if I'm working or you know, something like that. It was that was another

reason that I moved back home from Nashville. So figuring out scheduling, working, being of a mom, and then dating comes along too, because you met your man, Like, how did that happen and how did you figure out that balance out? Um? Well, he actually was a friend of when he was best friends with my friends, uh boyfriend who they've been together for so I always saw him. It wasn't like somebody I didn't know who he was, but I never looked in really that way a little.

Did I know he had been really he had liked me for a while. Yeah, and I didn't know that. So when I, um, when Maddie was about a year old, I don't know, I just they asked us to go on a date with all fours together, and right then it was just so your best friend, her boyfriend and Jamie yes, my husband. Yeah, and it was like we all went and looked at Christmas lights in New Orleans

and it was it was the weirdest thing. It just felt right from right then and there and um, you know, putting through a little hell for the next two years, but like I would break up with him because I was like, I just need to focus on being a mom and working. And then he just was really consistent through it all. You know, he gave me my time to grow up. He gave me my time to make sure that I wanted to be with him because I wanted to save that. So he like he showed you

he wanted to be there for you. Yeah, I mean he had his fun while I was you know, figuring it out inside and toolest thumbs. But yeah, he definitely, you know, he allowed me to do that. He knew I needed to do that. Um, and I think that, Uh, that's the reason it's the way it is now. It's just easy. And when it's easy and it's safe, that's when you're supposed to be there. And don't you love that you kind of have like the same name. We have this actual name, Well you got a double name.

And then my daddy's name is Jamie as well, so it's Jamie Big and Louisiana or just was this coincidental? No? I just think my parents by the time they had me as a third kid, they didn't feel like figuring out another name, so they just named me Jamie Lynn, which is my parents name combined. I love that Jamie and Lynn. How great is that? It's fabulous. I love the fault. It's Brittany Bryan and then Jamie Lynn, Lady

Brian Jamie Lynn. Normally parents keep the like Yeah, a lot, a lot of medicine was given to her my birth. You just had to make sure your legacy was in full force. Okay, Christians turned to wrap us up. It's only twenty minutes, you said thirty. Can we have ten more minutes? We're doing Tristan is like cracking the whip. He is Jamie Lynds tour manager, and he's keeping us on a tight schedule. Okay, we're gonna just like you're making us, like getting all red and sweaty, Tristan. Okay,

we have a fitting Okay, Okay, okay, Okay. Sorry, Hey, I'm blaming Tristan. Yeah, I'm blaming Where does weather is that? Where you came from? The weather delayed my flights? Oh from Florida? Yeah, the weather, the plane. It was late because it was a tropical storm. Yeah. So my New Orleans was fine, but it just was the plane coming from wherever? Okay, Okay, So I want to talk to you a little bit about just a few more Thanks Triston, and we're gonna wrap up. You wrote I Got the

Boy for Janna Kramer. That has to be an amazing feeling as a writer to not just be an artists, but now your songs other people are singing and making them hits across the country, Like, how did that feel for you? It was really unexpected, but one of the coolest experiences ever because as a songwriter, you know, that song was written probably five or six years ago now, and I kept it based on a true story. Yes,

of course. Oh and so I wrote it probably five or six years ago, and with the wonderful co writers I wrote it with, and I kept holding onto it. I'm sure they were getting frustrated, like what is she going to record this? What is she doing? But then I finally said, you know what, I'm not in that place anymore. This song needs to find the right home.

And I think the home it needed was Janna. I think that, and as a songwriter, such a cool experience to hear a song that you know had a little piece of your heart go to another artist and really that's its home, that's where it should be. And she loved it like her own, you know, like and that's why. Yeah, that's why I worked because the song found the home that it needed to be with it was her. It's like magic, it is. It really is so cool. And you have a single coming out the same day as

You're special in June. Tell me about the single, Well, is it coming out? Uh? Okay, so Sleepover? So when is this coming out? June? Yes, I guess June seventeenth is when the Sleepover is coming out. And it's I'm really excited. I've been working on this obviously for a while now along with the documentary, but it's really I think that for a while they're being a young mother and taking yourself so serious and trying to be perfect,

that that's the time my music had. I really wanted to set the tone and give myself as an artist, my story, and I think that that's what the documentary does. But I need to also remember I'm twenty five. I need to have a little fun. I can be flirty and sexy and confident even though I am a wife and a mother, and I think that's the tone of the new music. Sleepover is very flirty but confident, but still the girls in control. So I think that's what I think. That's kind of the new tone of my

new music. I love it. You're just kind of owning all parts of yourself exactly. At think it's important for me, and it was a side of me I was always a little afraid to embrace, and I'm not I don't know. I just think for me, I wanted to um just be this very like to myself kind of person like I almost saw like I almost used to see like a softer side of myself as a weakness. But that's not true. You know, I get that being young is

a weakness or something, and that's not true. And you wanted to act like you head together and like everything you wanted to do. And yeah, and I think that being flirty and fun is just as cool as having your craft together as well. I totally agree with that, because sometimes that's like bad people think that's like a bad rap. But that's the side of women exactly. I mean,

I think that that's what you need to embrace. As long as you're in control of the situation, then you know what, it's fun to have a little fun and to be flirty with your man, and that's all that matters. Yeah. Okay, So then you recently did your opera debut and that was like a big night for you, super emotional, not only because it's your first debut. You're filming it for your special and then your brother or a sister surprise you introduce you walk me through those feelings of the

whole experience. I had no clue, Like, there was no clue. I did not know whatsoever. I was in Nashville to shoot my documentary UM covering this performance at the Opry, had my family here, and had no clue that my sister was coming. So I'm about to walk on the stage, and I noticed that the man he's normally like you know, they say, and here's Jamie linspears. He walks off with the microphone into the middle of the stage, and I'm like,

what does he do? Why? What's what's going on? And Daddy's like, besides, He's like, don't walk on yet, and I'm like, you don't know, you're you don't run this show. What do you mean, don't walk on you? And then all of a sudden they said, we like to, you know, have surprises and break traditions or whatever it is they said. And then all of a sudden, I walks my sister and I just melted and I had to go sing

songs and donn't really remember any of it. Was that a big deal for you because you have grown up supporting her and now she's supporting you, Like, did that feel cool? I think it was a big deal to me that my whole family was there. It was It's so rare that all of us are all in one place, and so them all being there especially for me, and I didn't even have to ask or like make it a big deal. They just were there, and I think that was, like, what was such a big deal to me?

I love that. So what is your relationship like with Brittany because she said when she introduced you that you are her heart and soul and she loves you more than anything in the world. Well, my brother and sister. My brother is fourteen years older than me. My sister's ten years older than me. So it's like a second set of parents. It wasn't the normal sister like um, you know, bickering kind of thing. I was like I was her little doll. I was like her little baby,

and so it was definitely um you know. I feel like I was her first child. And I think that's why the relationship is is the way it is. So what is it like for y'all or y'all just like you know, now it's different. Now, It's like I feel like now it's like she still wants to treat me like that. At the same time, I feel like sometimes I'm the more the one who's like cracking the whip about like what we need to do and what's going to happen. So I feel like now I'm the one

that's more in control. I'm my whole family. You have this a lockdown? Yes, yes, exactly. I love that. Okay, so we're wrapping up just in this is it their last questions? You want to get in trouble. I don't want to get in trouble, Dad, So I have to make sure I've covered everything I wanna talk about basically have Okay, UM, what are you looking forward to in these next five years? Because you you're doing this country music, You're committing to a full force. This is like where

you found your heart and soul. You're doing your documentary saying this is who I am. What are you looking forward to in these next five years? I think I'm really looking forward to being able to truly be my real self as an artist, as a person and have people see that like it or not, but really being honest with myself. How would you describe your real self? I think my real self is um, I think I'm a lot of things, and I think that embracing all

of those sides of yourself are important. So I think in the next five years, I'm just really excited to get on stage, have a good time, write songs, and not apologize for just not really apologize for just being who I am. You know, within reason, of course, I go and act and ask. But but you want to show all sides of you exactly. And I think that it's gonna be really freeing for me to do this documentary and to kind of say the things and talk about the things that I kind of would be shy about.

I think this will be a good way for me to say, Okay, it's all out there, let's just let's move forward now. So this is like your autobiography, Like this is like you just going through it all, putting it all out there and saying, like I'm telling you how it is, so you don't have to make judgments for me. I'm just giving it to you. Yes, I'm

just you know, people can take and dissect it. But at the same time, I think honesty is the biggest thing, and for the next five years, I think that, Um that's kind of just the main thing is just going out there and just being less afraid. I love that. Okay. So I like to end every interview with a little segment called leave your Light and so basically, how have you been inspired or how would you like to inspire

people who are fans of you? Um, I think that the one thing I would want people to know is that you can't be so hard on yourself. It's one of those things that everyone's going to have an opinion about everything, But don't be afraid. Don't be afraid of your mistakes because they're really not. It's it's really not the end of the world. I think for me, it's like what inspires me is seeing people who keep moving forward,

and that's what I want to do. And um, I really just want I want women and young girls to just love, just love every part of themselves, all the good, the bad, the ugly, all of that. I just think that it's important for UM, no one to have to apologize. That's awesome though. You just want women, especially to feel empowered and love them. We need to stop second guessing ourselves. We just need to stop. We just need to let

it go. Just stop second guessing ourselves, trust ourselves, stop apologizing. Um you know, it's really cool to be a lady. I love being a Southern lady because I can respect you, but at the same time I can stand up there with you and you know, I can hold on. I think that's what's important. I love that. O.
