Right before the Christmas break I got to sit down with Tim McGraw to talk about his movie Country Strong.  By now you’ve probably seen the clips or the trailer and know the film is about an emotionally unstable country star (Gwyneth Paltrow) that gets involved with a rising young singer-songwriter (Garrett Hedlund). McGraw plays Paltrow's husband/manager and Leighton Meester (Gossip Girl) plays a beauty-queen-turned-singer who is trying to make a name for herself.Anyway, during the interview McGraw talked about how he got involved in the project, does he know anyone like his character, did he ever think he'd be acting in big Hollywood movies, the rehearsal process, and a lot more.  Hit the jump to watch the interview.  Country Strong is in theaters now.Finally, if you missed my interviews with Gwyneth Paltrow or Leighton Meester just click their names.Tim McGraw
