(Irlene Mandrell) Irene is easily mistaken for a pretty, dumb, blonde. But the truth is, she's just a sweet oddball who takes everything that anyone says at face value.

Like many who flock to Branson, Missouri, Irene is an amateur musician. She's an aspiring singer, dancer, and drummer, happy to have a steady job working near show biz, confident someday her big break will come.

She is ready to find the best man she can - like Mack Grady (Mickey Gilley) - and get married.
