Country radio delivered an early Christmas present to Reba yesterday as the superstar’s single “Consider Me Gone” soared to the #1 position on both the Billboard Country Songs Chart and the USA Today/Country Aircheck chart (powered by Mediabase).

Reba’s second single off her current album “KEEP ON LOVING YOU” marks her 34th #1 career hit expanding her span of #1 hits to 26 years. Reba’s very first #1 single “Can’t Even Get The Blues” rose to the top of the charts in January 1983.

“My Valory Music Company family gave me the best Christmas gift ever, a number one record. Our team’s hard work and enthusiasm continue to amaze me,” said Reba. “Consider Me Gone” is a great song, and I am just proud to be a part of it. 2009 has been great, 34 #1’s are great. And I feel like we are just getting started.”

An exclusive behind-the-scenes look of the making of Reba’s “Consider Me Gone” music video can be seen now on the Great American Country Channel. The special “GAC: ON THE SET” which premiered on Sunday, airs again on December 22 at 5:30 pop ET/5:30 pm CT.

Reba also performs on the CBS Network special “HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS” on Wednesday, December 23rd at 8 pm ET/7 pm CT.

“Consider Me Gone” marks the third #1 single from two-year old label The Valory Music Co. and its second #1 in less than three months.
