The Untold Truth Of Pentatonix's Kirstin Maldonado

Posted by Mittie Cheatwood on Monday, June 17, 2024

When you're a famous singer or musician, it makes sense that people want to know what kind of music you listen to on your own — and Kirstin Maldonado has been happy to answer that question. While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Maldonado admitted that, despite her Texan roots, the only genre of music that no one in the group listens to is country music. 

After noting, "I'm just being honest," Maldonado added that each member of the group has their own musical influences and interests, which can bring a lot to the table when it's time to record together. She said this is true "especially when we had challenges during the weeks, we'd say, 'Let's try this,' and 'Let's do a little of this.' I think that really helped."

However, it seems that Maldonado must have had a change of heart between the time she gave that 2011 interview to The Hollywood Reporter and when she was still planning her wedding in 2017. While speaking to People, Maldonado told the publication she was planning a first dance to Lonestar's "Amazed," adding, "I've known that song for forever because I'm from Texas. Country music is just always playing everywhere."
