Kellie Pickler is one busy girl these days.  She is currently opening for Rascal Flatts, doing a few headlining shows of her own and is in the beginning stages of planning her upcoming wedding to fiance Kyle Jacobs. 

In a recent interview with the Tennessean it seems that Kellie is right where she wants to be and busy is the only way she will have it. 

“I was so young when I signed my record deal. I was 19 and green and didn’t really know myself very well. I was more of a … follower than a leader, just kind of rolling with the flow and letting people dictate what I was going to do and what not,’’ she says.

“Now it’s like I’ve grown up a lot and seen the world and had new life experiences and been through a lot these past two years personally. I know who I am now.’’

Kelly admits that wedding plans are not really a stress for her right now. She is just trying to find the right wedding planner and knows everything else will fall into place. What is stressing Kellie out a bit is the upcoming release of her third album:

“I am a little bit stressed about the album, because you hear the third album makes or breaks you. I’m just hoping that the first two albums have just been practice. I feel like this third album is going to be my first album, because I really feel like I know me,’’ she says.

Kelly knows she’s a busy girl right now but doesn’t think her life should be any other way.

“Not a lot of downtime to really rehabilitate and rejuvenate but, I love what I do. I love country music. I love performing.”
