Jo Dee Messina

Cole Swindell's new video is as fun as it gets, AND it features a surprise appearance from Jo Dee Messina.

Jo Dee Messina released "Heads Carolina, Tails California" in 1996 and you'll hear her voice sampled during the first few bars.

On Feb. 8, 2002, 'Burn' was certified platinum, for sales of one million units.

Messina songs have a lot of attitude.

On Aug. 18, 1998, Messina landed at No. 1 on the Billboard country singles chart with "I'm Alright."

Faith will get her through the hard days ahead.

On April 17, 2006, Messina ran the Boston Marathon ... and completed the race, even after injuring her knee.

There's an old saying that insists that "revenge is a dish best served cold" ...

Despite her struggles, the singer says she's "filled with gratitude and joy."

"Her legacy will live on forever."

The 47-year-old singer is doing better, and she's working on new music!

Jo Dee Messina has battled cancer privately since sharing the news with fans on Facebook last September.
