Martina McBride made her second appearance on Oprah in two weeks yesterday (11/3). The first episode showed McBride’s performance at the State Fair of Texas and for yesterday’s installment she returned to her home state of Kansas for a show about celebrities’ first jobs. She used to serve ice cream and burgers at her hometown DQ, so Oprah’s crew took Martina back to revisit the Hutchinson, Kansas Dairy Queen which is still owned by the same couple who employed her after high school.
McBride’s Shine All Night Tour presented by SunnyD starring Trace Adkins kicks off November 20th and covers 40 cities across the U.S. through the spring of 2010.
