In a exclusive, Kenny goes on the record about paparazzi, his personal life and his new album.

In our Oct. 24 issue, Kenny Chesney opened up to about what's ahead for him in the wake of his failed marriage to actress Renée Zellweger and about the making of his new The Road and the Radio album. Here is Part 2 of that exclusive interview with Kenny, who sat down with us just days after Renée, his wife of four months, filed for annulment of their marriage Sept. 14.

The interview took place at Kenny's stately mansion outside Nashville, with Kenny sitting beside his picturesque swimming pool as he talked about the pressure of the last 12 months of his life. In that time, he swept overdue honors as country music's Entertainer of the Year at the CMA and ACM awards shows. He staged the biggest tour of his career on the heels of his record-breaking 2004 tour. He began filming his first network TV special, which airs on ABC this Thanksgiving eve. And he got married, privately, May 9 on the Caribbean island of St. John with only a few friends and family in attendance.

In this final installment, Kenny talks about feeling "violated" by the paparazzi, how his family has been hurt, why his concerts are "rock shows," having children, his ABC special this Thanksgiving and more about his new The Road and the Radio CD.
