KENNY GET A GRIP

After watching half the ACM Awards (it was late and I knew I was turning into a big poop, so I went to bed) I have changed my mind on what to blog about. As Kenny Chesney performed his hit Got A Little Crazy, I just couldn't help but feel different about him and his music. His comments which recently ran in Playboy and the comments he made on CMT Insider have given me a new opinion of this man. I feel any man who thinks he has to share how many women he slept with is very arrogant and has shown very little respect. Don't get me wrong, I am not against having fun, nor do I think Kenny a saint previously, but bragging about sleeping with 100 plus women is not funny or cute. Kenny shame on you, you have worked very hard to make it to the top. Obviously you have forgotten your interviews telling how your mom felt when men her age seemed to all be looking for much younger women, how bad she felt and how bad you felt for her. Also, you were never going to do that, well Kenny you have done much more than that to degrade women. I don't know if I will ever be able to scoop my Kenny spirit back up. I just don't understand how this is to be considered acceptable behavior by your fans (many women). I am assuming most are working class girls buying tickets which help him afford his lifestyle.  I think perhaps being made to relinquish the Entertainer of the Year award may help rattle some sense back into this boy. A little respect for your fans is a must. I feel it is not just the new and upcoming artist' music that sends the established stars packing but also has a lot to do with their attitude. Respect is a two way street, to get it you must give it and live it. It seems some artists after becoming mega popular forget who they really are or where they came from. It's time for Kenny to clean up his act and become the descent man that he once was, or it is time for him to graciously move over and let the new guys/girls with some self pride try their hand. Besides, this arrogance breaks every country music rule.
