NEW YORK (CNN) -- Ten years, 13 million albums and three Grammys ago, Trisha Yearwood came out with her first album, "Trisha Yearwood." Helped by the single "She's in Love with the Boy," the record went platinum. It was an auspicious beginning for the former Garth Brooks backup singer, who has since had 10 No. 1 hits on the country charts.
That kind of success tends to add some pressure to each new release, Yearwood told "Showbiz Today Reports" anchor Laurin Sydney. Her latest album, "Inside Out," was just issued.
"Well, every time you have a No. 1 record then there's the pressure to continue to do that," she said. "But I have been very lucky. I have always been able to choose songs that I love and we have been very lucky at radio."

Yearwood also recently graced the cover of Billboard magazine, coinciding with the June 5 release of the new album. That was a surprise, Yearwood said. "It's not even something you would dream about. I don't think I would ever have expected to be on the cover of Billboard and have that kind of tribute for 10 years. It's kind of overwhelming because it seems like it's all happened so quickly. ... So it's been nice -- it's kinda made me pause for a moment and look back and go, 'It's been a great 10 years.'"
A decade of making country music also means making a lot of musical friends.
"Inside Out" features the talents of Rosanne Cash, Don Henley, Vince Gill and
Kim Richie.
Yearwood stopped by our "Showbiz Today Reports" studio as a part of this week's "Showbiz Sessions" to perform her new single, "I Would've Loved You Anyway."
