Miranda Lambert Fears Swine Flu in Texas

Miranda Lambert may come across as feisty and fearless, but she admits there is one thing she is afraid of: the swine flu.

"I'm very concerned," she tells Michigan radio station B93. "We're in Texas this weekend with Kenny [Chesney], and it's kind of scary because that's where everything is showing up. We're definitely taking precautions and unfortunately we had to cancel some meet-and-greets this weekend."

Not that the singer is blaming the animals. A proud pet owner of "pretty much everything you can imagine," including two pot-bellied pigs, she doesn't blame her own pets for her fear of the swine flu. "I think I'd be more likely to give it to them!" she says. "They're in their happy little world at the farm, so I don't think we're in danger."

Miranda has also been known to hunt wild hogs, just not on her property. Living on a 700-acre farm close to boyfriend Blake Shelton's own Oklahoma spread, she explains how they balance being animal lovers with their hunting hobby: "We have a rule that we don't eat things on my farm, but we can kill things otherwise -- just not on my farm."
