"I did have time to think about it. You're going.to be happy. You're going to be pleased with this. Someone who was pretty synonymous with the whole introduction of hardcore country, and I think that we made some incredible historic moments together. And that would be our dear friend, Lisa Marie. I've asked her," she revealed.

James mentioned that Marie got emotional when she told her, and she was "bawling" in a voice note sent by her.
