She previously auditioned for Britain's Got Talent and tried her hand on The X Factor twice.

In the preview clip, Megan says: "My dream is to become a world wide country star.

"Nashville is the place, and this is going to be my starting point."

However, her dream doesn't come easy as she's told Nashville music lovers are a "harsh audience".

As she walks down the street, Megan reveals she's "had a few maybes and a few straight out 'no's'" as she tries to land herself a few gigs.

But she's determined as she adds: "There’s nothing else in the world I want more than this."

It remains to be seen how Megan gets on and if she impresses the crowds.

However, while Megan is excited about the show her Towie co-stars aren't too impressed.

Speaking to OK! online, Megan - who recently reunited with Pete Wicks - says her close pals have been supportive but the Towie lot aren't interested.

She said: “Obviously my close friends are really happy for me like Amber [Turner], Pete, Jordan and Jack, I’d say they’re like my family. They are really happy for me.

"Arg did ask about my experience, me and Arg talk all the time."

"But I’m not gonna lie, people on TOWIE have not really said anything. I dunno, I haven’t really seen a lot of people.

"I went to Marbella to film the new series but I didn't really get asked a lot of questions about my whole Nashville experience."

  • There's Something About Megan will begin on ITVBe on Sunday, September 3
