Kenny Chesney: Big Song, Big Tour, Big Host
Kenny Chesney appears on The Kelly Clarkson Show this week (6/17) as he celebrates the chart success of his 33rd number one single “Take Her Home.”
He says of his latest chart-topping achievement, “The thing about songs that are pieces of people’s lives is almost everyone can see themselves in there. To me, I’m singing the reality people are living and trying to show them how sweet life can be if you really look. I love that this song has connected so deeply.”
Kenny has smashed his previous sales and attendance records at almost every stadium this summer; his show at Chicago’s Soldier Field saw almost 2,000 more people fill their historic stadium than his prior best, a fact not lost on the life-affirming powerhouse.
Chesney said of his current tour, “It’s been the most amazing summer. No Shoes Nation has always been this passionate, insane country without borders with people who come together, raise our pirate flag, and enjoy life in ways that inspire me.”
The country superstar added, “I didn’t know you could have some of the responses we’ve had on this tour, and just when you think it can’t get any louder or more heartfelt, Chicago happens.”
Kenny and Kelly chat about many things when he appears on the show, including work ethic, high-intensity live shows, trying to kick back, college math, and much more.
Kenny says of the popular talk show host, “Kelly Clarkson is big fun. Two long segments with her whip by, and all you’ve done is laugh! Rather than asking the usual questions, she wants to know where the songs come from and why, and maybe a little college-level math.”
