Kenny will be "OK" after split with Renee

Darn right Kenny will be okay!

Source: Y! News

NEW YORK - Less than a week after Renee Zellweger filed for an annulment from Kenny Chesney, the country music star assured fans, "I'll be OK."

"I'm all right. I'm good. There have been better times, but I'll be OK," Chesney told Country Weekly magazine for its Oct. 24 issue, on newsstands Oct. 10. The interview was conducted Monday at the singer's home outside Nashville, Tenn.

In court papers filed Sept. 14, Zellweger listed "fraud" as the reason for the breakup after four months of marriage. The "Bridget Jones" actress and Chesney married in a surprise Caribbean island ceremony in May after first meeting in January.

"I hit everything so hard this year," Chesney said. "I had the biggest tour I've ever done, I had a record to finish that was real important to me, and, of course, I had something new in my personal life and I was trying to do that too. It really ended up being too much."

Chesney, 37, was named Country Music Association entertainer of the year in November, while his "When the Sun Goes Down" was named album of the year.

"I'm tired right now, but by next year, I'll be excited to get back to it. And it'll be about the music again, not about the sideshow."

Farm Aid Debut for Kenny


It's great to see Kenny not thinking too much about the Renee thing and focus his attention on something positive like Farm Aid. Keep up the great work Kenny!

Source: CMT.com

TINLEY PARK, Ill. -- Back when the original Farm Aid was just getting started, Kenny Chesney was only a teenager. But Sunday (Sept. 18) at the 20th anniversary concert in the Chicago suburb of Tinley Park, Ill., Chesney was all grown up and showing all 25,000 fans he was just fine. And to the fans close enough to hold up their "We Love You, Kenny" signs, he mouthed a very genuine, "Thank you."

As expected, Chesney made no mention of the annulment of his marriage to actress Renee Zellweger, a story that made national news last week. However, he would not allow news photographers to take photos during his performance.

Chesney's set was packed with sure things, like "Live Those Songs," "Big Star," "Young" and "Anything but Mine." He dedicated "Back Where I Come From" to everybody in the audience that had grown up in the country. "I understand the importance of keeping people close to the soil, growing up like I did," Chesney said. "When you're from a small town, you've got to band together. That's why I'm so proud to be here."

Chesney even thanked his friend, Farm Aid co-founder John Mellencamp, for inspiring him. "Years ago, Mellencamp told me I oughta write more of my own songs," Chesney said. "He inspired me, and I wrote this song the very next day." The lyrics of "I Go Back" gained a new meaning after Chesney explained what gave him the push to write about Jack & Diane -- years after Mellencamp himself did so.

Fans got even louder when Chesney closed his part of the Farm Aid show with "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy." How else would you end the concert meant to help the family farms that actually use a John Deere?

This may have been Chesney's first Farm Aid, but Mellencamp has been in it for the long haul, having co-founded the nonprofit organization in 1985 with Willie Nelson and Neil Young. So when it was Mellencamp's turn to sing, he sang his message loud and clear. He was as outspoken as ever with songs about fighting authority, life and death in a small town and discrimination of all kinds. But nothing could've hit closer to home for the family farmers scattered throughout the crowd than Mellencamp's "Rain on the Scarecrow." The crowd was almost silent as he sang, "The crops we grew last summer/Weren't enough to pay the loans/Couldn't buy the seed to plant this spring/And the farmers' bank foreclosed."

Reports: Kenny Chesney & Rene Zellweger Call It Quits

I guess the rumors were correct, Kenny and Rene have announced they will be seeking an annulment. When I heard this last night (sorry I didn't post this until this morning), I was a bit surprised but at the same time reporters have been saying they were in trouble shortly after they got married. It's too bad because they seemed like a pretty good couple. I have a feeling their careers are just too busy for them to work on a marriage or even enjoy each other. The single life is probably the better way to go for these people until their careers have chilled out some.

I'm sure plenty of women out there are breathing a sigh of relief now that Kenny is back on the market. LOL!

Here are a few reports from this morning's news:

Source: CMT News

Kenny Chesney and Renee Zellweger are annulling their five-month marriage, Chesney's publicist confirmed Thursday afternoon (Sept. 15).

Another source close to Chesney said Zellweger was in New York when she initiated the annulment proceedings and that the singer received the news Wednesday (Sept. 14) in Nashville.

The couple married May 9 on the island of St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands, where he owns a house. It was the first marriage for both.

Washington: After only four-months, Hollywood actress Renee Zellweger and country singer Kenny Chesney are having their marriage annulled.

The Oscar-winning actress reportedly filed for an annulment from her country star husband on Wednesday (14Sep05) in Los Angeles.

"The reports are true," E! Online quoted Zellweger's spokesperson Nanci Ryder as saying.

"There are no further details," she added Zellweger, 36, and Chesney, 37, wed May 9 on a beach in the Virgin Islands, which happened about five months after the couple met at a tsunami relief benefit in January 2005.

The marriage was the first for both.

Oscar-winning actress Renee Zellweger and country singer Kenny Chesney are seeking an annulment after four months of marriage.
The Bridget Jones star, 36, married Chesney, 37, on a Caribbean beach in May, having met four months earlier at a benefit for tsunami victims.

In court papers Zellweger listed "fraud" as the reason for the break-up but did not elaborate.

Chesney is one of the biggest country music stars in the US.

He was named entertainer of the year at the US Academy of Country Music awards in May, with hits including Me and You and She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy.

Zellweger won a best supporting actress Oscar for Cold Mountain in 2004, and was also nominated for her roles in Chicago and Bridget Jones's Diary.

It was the first marriage for both Zellweger and Chesney.

Marriage 'invalid': (This gives a good explaination of what an annulment is)

In US law, an annulment is a decree that a marriage was invalid from its outset.

Anyone seeking an annulment on the grounds of "fraud" must prove that their partner misrepresented some matter that was vital to the marriage.

This may include the concealment of a fact such as an existing spouse, permanent impotence or a criminal history.

If either party was under the influence of drugs or alcohol when the marriage took place, it may also be grounds for its annulment.

However, Zellweger's lawyer and her spokeswoman Nanci Ryder declined to give any details regarding the "fraud" claim in this case.

In her court submission, Zellweger also demanded that the court rule out the possibility of spousal financial support for Chesney.

The pair first met at the Concert of Hope tsunami relief benefit in January, where Chesney was singing and Zellweger was answering telephones.

A week ago, Renee Zellweger was "happily married" to Kenny Chesney. But in the whirlwind romantic life of the Oscar-winning actress, a lot can happen in seven days.

Wednesday in Los Angeles, Zellweger checked the paperwork box marked "fraud," and filed for an annulment from her country star husband of four months.

"The reports are true," Zellweger rep Nanci Ryder confirmed. "There are no further details."

Zellweger, 36, and Chesney, 37, wed May 9 on a beach in the Virgin Islands. The bride wore a strapless Carolina Herrera; the groom, a black Stetson.

New Kenny Chesney Song: Who You Would Be Today

It was weird... I heard this song as soon as I got into my office this morning that sounded like Kenny Chesney, but I didn't recognize the song. Turns out, he released a song to the radio stations already. The song is called "Who You Would Be Today". I only heard the second half of the song, but it sounded a little like a tear-jerker. Pretty good song though. Can you tell that I'm just itchin' for new Chesney material?

9/11 2005: Four Years Have Past

I would like to take a minute [or two] to remember our heros, victims and families of the victims of 9/11/2001. It seems just like yesterday that we were under attack from the lowest scum of the earth/cowards that slammed aircraft into buildings. I will never forget that fateful day and I hope no American that experienced it will ever forget that day and the people who lost their lives.

I pray for all who were affected by the attacks of 9/11.

CMA Award Nominations 2005

So they are picking the nominees for the CMA Awards today. I'm kind of pissed that Kenny Chesney wasn't nominated in a couple of categories like Single of the Year, Album of the Year and Song of the Year or Video of the Year, but hey... He can't win everything, right?

Hopefully, Kenny will take Entertainer of the Year again and it would be nice if he gets Male Vocalist of the Year.

Man... Choices are so hard to pick in the Female Vocalist of the Year and the Horizon Award. It will be interesting to see how close I am with my picks. It would be nice if Montgomery Gentry would win Duo of the Year, but I'm thinking Brooks & Dunn will probably take it. Don't get me wrong... I love B&D, but I also really like Montgomery Gentry as well. You know, Van Zant might just surprise us with that category. I haven't really watched every video, but I did think Toby Keith's As Good As I Once Was was a pretty funny video. He needs to win something, ya know? Musician of the Year -- I have no idea who will win it, I just had to pick something. :)

Hurricane Katrina Relief

Looks like Kenny is also getting into the act in helping out families of this horrible natural disaster.

It was nice to see Tim McGraw doing his part on NBC the other night along with some 18 celebrities, including Wynton Marsalis, Lindsay Lohan, Leonardo DiCaprio, Harry Connick Jr., Mike Myers, Hilary Swank, Claire Danes, John Goodman and Aaron Neville. It took an unexpected turn when the outspoken rapper Kanye West launched into a tirade about the government's response to the disaster, claiming "George Bush doesn't care about black people." I wonder if Kenny will be doing a similar television special?

Here's what I found off of Mr. Chesney's official website news page which was posted today (fresh off the presses):

FARM AID OFFERS IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE FOR FARMERS DEVASTATED BY HURRICANE KATRINA

Farm Aid will channel emergency assistance to farm families devastated by Hurricane Katrina. Farm Aid today activated the Family Farm Disaster Fund to encourage donations so that farm families can get the help they need to recover from the hurricane and continue farming.
"This is a moment when each of us can take stock of what we can offer to everyone affected by this catastrophe, and Farm Aid is in a position to act for farm families," said Farm Aid President Willie Nelson. "Crop and livestock losses will be massive. Many farm buildings were destroyed in the storm and ensuing flooding. A disaster of this magnitude can be a breaking point for many Southern family farms."

Individuals can contribute to Farm Aid's disaster fund on-line at www.farmaid.org or by calling 1-800-FARM-AID. In addition to funds raised by people across the country, Farm Aid has sent an initial $30,000 to several of its partner family farm organizations in the southeast. The funds will allow the Federation of Southern Cooperatives and the Louisiana Interchurch Conference to immediately begin assessing needs in these states and providing emergency relief. The Farmers Legal Action Group will also step in with information they have developed on how farmers can access federal disaster programs.

For twenty years, Farm Aid has responded to many weather-related disasters that have pushed family farmers to the brink of ruin. Already, there is an outpouring of desire among farmers and farm groups to help other farm families affected by Katrina.
"Fortunately, we can convene our farm group partners across the country to develop additional longer-term actions that Farm Aid and its donors can support," added Farm Aid Executive Director Carolyn Mugar.

While the full extent of the damage to family farms is still unknown, Farm Aid representatives have been told that the infrastructure of many rural southeastern communities has been devastated and will take months to repair. That means many farm families are facing an extended period without phone service, electricity, clean water or modes of transportation. In addition, major crop losses are anticipated as many crops were just a week or two from being harvested when the hurricane hit. Without transport or feed for farm animals, livestock and poultry farmers face serious challenges to keep their animals alive over the coming days and weeks.

Farm Aid will hold its 20th Anniversary concert on September 18 in Tinley Park, IL, just south of Chicago. Willie Nelson, Neil Young and John Mellencamp held the first Farm Aid concert in 1985 in Champaign, IL to raise awareness about the loss of family farms and to raise funds to keep farm families on their land. Dave Matthews joined the Farm Aid Board of Directors in 2001. Farm Aid has raised more than $27 million to promote a strong and resilient family farm system of agriculture. Through public education and direct grants, Farm Aid supports national, regional and local efforts to build and strengthen family farm food production.

The Road and the Radio Album Cover

I was surfing on BNArecords.com (Kenny Chesney's record label) this morning and saw his new album cover. It's the first time I have seen it anywhere, so it's pretty cool that I found it and thought I would share it with you. Obviously the CD is not out yet, and it's not scheduled for release until November 8, so I guess they still have time to change the album cover. So, I'll just say that this is the unofficial album cover of his new album "The Road and the Radio." Maybe I'll give BNA a call today to confirm. (I confirmed it with the nice young lady at BNA... It will be the cover to his latest album.)

Looking at this new album cover, I found it interesting that Kenny Chesney's last 4 album covers have him posed looking straight at the camera. This cover shows him looking away from the camera similar to his album Everywhere We Go. And a lot of his other earlier albums have him photographed not looking straight at the camera. Is this a hint of what the album will be like? Is Kenny getting back to his roots of his earlier albums? I guess we will have to wait and see.

Let the countdown begin... We only have about 75 days until Kenny's newest album “The Road and the Radio" release date. As I mentioned before... I cannot wait to hear some tracks off this one! Personally, I hope this album is a lot like Kenny's When The Sun Goes Down album. I just think that sound is great for him.

Kenny's Thoughts

I am always amazed by some of the stuff I read from Kenny. He's got so many different layers of his thoughts... Such an interesting person. I thought I would share this with you.

"I learned I was strong enough to let go down there, strong enough to move on… that it’s not necessarily a bad thing to be running from something and chasing something all at the same time. I think deep down a lot of people are that way, whether they’ll face it or not – The islands, though, give you the freedom to be real honest with yourself about yourself and about your life." -Kenny Chesney

Kenny Chesney's Best Summer Memories

I found this article this morning and tried to think of one of my favorite summer memories. I remember I was about 13 and my aunt took me to the beach on the south side of Long Island along with a few other kids and a special young lady around the same age as me. We used to ride the waves and when we needed a little shade, we would hide from everyone under the boardwalk and innocently kiss one another. Looking back at that now puts a smile on my face.

Enjoy the article...

Source: netmusiccountdown.com

NASHVILLE, TN -- Kenny Chesney is having the best summer of his life this year, with a fabulous new wife in his life, and a monster, sellout tour.

But, he says the best summer of his young life goes back to when he had that lifeguard job.

"The best summer I ever had was the summer after my freshman year in college and me and my best friend, David Farmer, were lifeguards at this pool at a lake resort down in East Tennessee. David's folks had a houseboat and we drove it down from their dock to where the pool was and we stayed there for two weeks without going home. We'd just be in the sun all day, go life guard, then get off work and go back to the boat and cook and then take out David's ski boat skiin' and then we'd fish all night," he said.

What, no partying?

"Well, we weren't alone," he said with a grin, they were lifeguards after all. "We had a lot of fun...and so...that two weeks on that boat made it the best summer I had."

Two Sold Out Shows For Kenny Chesney At Alltel Pavilion

Yes, more sold out shows for the face of new country Mr. Chesney. His two shows that sold out at Raleigh's Alltel Pavilion were around 40,000 tickets. Friday night's show sold out in 13 minutes.
Kenny played a couple of songs off of his latest album Be As You Are: Songs From An Old Blue Chair, then the crowd really enjoyed songs from When The Sun Goes Down album. He also sang songs off of other albums like "She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy" and "How Forever Feels", which had the audience singing and dancing in their seats.

Some say the Somewhere in the Sun tour has the same feel as last summer's Guitars, Tiki Bars and a Whole Lot of Love tour -- With a very close set of songs as last years tour. I saw him in Ft. Lauderdale this year and Kracker, Gretchen and Chesney rocked the house. He was awesome! Speaking of Kracker, at the Alltel Pavilion, Kenny and Kracker did When The Sun Goes Down as well as a rendition of Kid Rock's "Cowboy."

Chesney and Gretchen Wilson sang together doing one of John Mellencamp's songs "Hurts So Good."

The ticket price for one of Kenny's shows is not exactly cheap, but for what he gives the audience, it is well worth the price. According to Kenny Chesney's website www.kennychesney.com, his remaining shows are sold out -- Which means you'll have to wait until next time to see him live. I for one cannot wait to see him perform live again.

Article on Zellweger Slamming Reports About Her Marriage

Found this article today which was published August 1, 2005. I'm a little more hopeful hearing about this. I think I might have blogged some of this news on another day... It does look familiar. Anyway, for those of you that are also bummed about all the negative publicity, here you go:

Oscar-winner Renee Zellweger has slammed reports her three month marriage to country singer Kenny Chesney is in trouble.

British newspaper the Daily Mail claimed on July 30, the famous couple have barely spent any time together since their wedding in May.

The 36-year-old Texan actress and 37-year-old musician married on the Caribbean island of St John after a whirlwind four month courtship. A unnamed friend of the actress alleged, "The realities of married life are hitting them both awfully hard. "Renee had no idea how involved in every aspect of her life Kenny would want to be.

She'd never even seen him lose his temper before the wedding, but now he seems to think he can tell Renee what to do, what to wear, where to go and who to see. He doesn't seem to like her hanging out with her old friends."

Zellweger's publicist Nanci Ryder has laughed off the rumors, saying their relationship is "great".

Meanwhile, Chesney's spokeswoman Holly Gleason remarks, "He's focusing on what he does best: making music."

Found this on an online newspaper article.

What? Quicky Divorce!

I heard an interesting thing from an online magazine. It seems that Renee Zellweger is dragging Mr. Chesney to counselling sessions just three months into their marriage. Kenny's obsession with food and fitness has Renee thinking about doing a "quickie divorce".

I still don't buy it. I guess I am just being hopeful that it will work out for the two. Maybe it's just gossip.

Kenny Is Matching Event Records To The Likes Of Elvis & Elton

Source: channelcincinnati.com

Kenny Chesney is on his "Somewhere In The Sun" tour, and he's racking up records matched by only two artists before him. He's sold out three nights at Atlanta's Philips Arena. In the history of Atlanta's major arenas, only Elvis Presley and Elton John have sold out three nights in a row. For the math-minded, that's close to 18,000 tickets per night. Chesney said when they told him, it took him back a little bit. He said the first record he ever bought was Elvis' "Greatest Hits" and he feels he's in some pretty special company. Chesney's current single is "Keg In The Closet" from his When The Sun Goes Down album.

New Kenny Chesney Video

He is playing a concert in Cincinnati later this month, but country singer Kenny Chesney was also expected in the city Monday, to shoot a music video. Details about filming locations and other specifics were being kept extremely quiet. And, a local production company that put together his two previous music videos was also tight-lipped. Chesney, who recently married actress Renee Zellweger, performs at the US Bank Arena on Aug. 25, 2005.

Chesney & Zellweger Heading For A Split?

I keep on hearing (or reading) rumors about them not getting along and having "petty" sqarrels over their Nashville mansion. They reportedly have not spent very much time together since their May 9 wedding in the Virgin Islands.

Could this be true already? Personally, I highly doubt it. They seem pretty much in love and it's just too early to tell how they will work out. Hopefully it's just rumors and they will live happily ever after, but you never know I guess. They are both strong willed people and if they want it to work out, it will.

Zellweger's publicist, Nanci Ryder, tried to put an end to the rumors, saying the relationship is "great." Chesney's spokeswoman, however, had a more telling remark. "He's focusing on what he does best: making music."

Hmmm... That leads me to another post. Is there a new Kenny Chesney album in the works?
