Country queen Reba McEntire has stunned her legions of devout Christian fans by revealing she believes in reincarnation.

In an interview with country news website GACTV.com, the flame-haired singer insists she's been a man in a previous life and she has known her son Shelby before.

She says, "I believe... that I have been here before as a man... I believe I have spent time with my son, Shelby, before. I believe I have spent time with other people in my life before. Who knows? Maybe I'm part Buddhist." And she knows her comments will outrage some of her religious fans.

She adds, "I will get flak from Christians who will say I can't be a Christian if I believe this… I'm sorry, but this is how I live my life, this is what I believe."
