Blind Item #9 - Kindness
This always in my mind A list entertainer(singer) but more like a B lister usually finds himself played on country radio stations, but he doesn't really fit anywhere. Linked with lots of famous actresses, this singer left a tip of $5K last week so his waitress would be able to buy a car to replace the one that broke down and had her walking several miles to work each day and her neighbors picking up her kids from school.
Must be Willie Nelson based on those words.
ReplyDeleteJohn Mayer will always be my secret crush
ReplyDeletethat really is kind whoever it is
ReplyDeleteJohnny Reid!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the Willie Nelson guest ("always in my mind" sounds a lot like "always on my mind")
ReplyDeleteShooter Jennings? This be tough
ReplyDeleteOr Adam Duritz?
DeleteLyle Lovett, although the only actress I know he dated was Julia Roberts and they were married.
ReplyDeleteAdam Duritz
ReplyDeleteI've seen his groupies backstage. Can't believe anyone would shag that but they do!! Regularly. They follow him everywhere. Gawd!!!
DeleteLyle Lovett? lol
ReplyDeleteHe was with Julia Roberts.
Obviously ("always on my mind")Willie Nelson. Such a sweetie.
ReplyDeleteWillie was my first thought too but he doesn't fit the clues. It says "he doesn't really fit anywhere" but Willie is strictly country. He also has been married for years and hasn't been linked with famous actresses.
ReplyDeleteIf he didn't use those words I had been thinking Garth Brooks who is played on country stations but was really more rock than country.
ReplyDeleteChris Gaines says hello.
DeleteThat's who it was, Freya! I couldn't remember
DeleteWhy is he "more like a B lister?"
ReplyDeleteChris Isaak? I'm not sure how to place his music because I only know his one big song.
ReplyDelete@ Jane First one that popped in my head..he fits for sure.
DeleteYahtzee...
DeleteI can see Willie Nelson for this, but has he dated a lot if famous actresses?
ReplyDeleteWillie is a regular around Paia, Maui and is verrrry loved at his local haunts there
Willie did some acting that's about it.
ReplyDeleteI thought Lyle, but love the Mayer guess.
ReplyDeleteWillie Nelson is permanent A list.
ReplyDeleteKid Rock?
ReplyDeleteYeah, Chris Isaak. He has dabbled in country and is arguably A list at one point, and arguably not anymore. Willie Nelson is a freaking legend of country music, and he's also at death's door, isn't he? Not out at restaurants. Not someone who dated a lot of actresses.
ReplyDeleteChris Isaak has dated lots of actresses including Winona!
DeleteLovett dated Kelly Cunningham an actress and producer till Roberts.,he also banged Biel, not sure if it was preclude
ReplyDeletePreluded by a date
Is this my favorite Tom Waits? I don't think he gets any radio play though.
ReplyDeleteWhoops missed the linked with actresses part. I think he's a family man. He's amazing regardless.

ReplyDeleteBesides not having dated a lot of famous actresses, Willie Nelson is permanent A++ list and no one can doubt that, so I don't think it's him. Don't like John Mayer but that's who I'd guess. Good for him.
ReplyDeleteOn the Kid Rock train. He'd totally do that!
ReplyDeleteBen Harper
ReplyDeleteOn the Kid Rock train. He'd totally do that!
ReplyDeleteDarius Rucker?
ReplyDeleteYes! Hootie right? The black blowfish guy. That's his real name right? I'm with you.
DeleteOr Lenny kravitz, to be different
ReplyDeletebut I could get on the Kid train
ReplyDeleteI like the Lyle Lovett guess but he is a country music artist. There's no question.
ReplyDeleteI'm going all in on my Chris Isaac guess but will not be shocked when this is revealed in two days and I'm wrong
I thought Darius, no famous ex'
ReplyDeleteKid Rock
ReplyDeleteDarius married since 2000. Back on the Kid train permenantly
ReplyDeleteLike the Lyle guess.
ReplyDeleteOnly other I can think of is Dwight Yoakam (dated Sharon Stone).
Willie dated Amy Irving
ReplyDelete@misch really??!? seems like a mismatch
Deletei don't consider lyle country. i love him and i don't like country. i think of him as a singer/songwriter that can't be categorized easily. i used to go see him at anderson fair when he was the opening act for other people---waay back.
ReplyDeletei like him for this. he's very kind and normal.
Willie Nelson
ReplyDeleteWillie Nelson
ReplyDeleteI'm going with Lyle Lovett. Some of his stuff is Country but the majority of his stuff covers the musical spectrum. I think people tag him as Country because of his earlier works and not knowing how else to categorize him. His songs have folk, gospel, and jazz themes as well.
ReplyDeleteAlso fits the A to B list bit better.
DeleteJust based on Enty's musical taste the Lovett guess make the most sense.
ReplyDeleteLyle also dated Ashley Judd.
ReplyDeleteHe must like 'em high maintenance.
Kid Rock his song All Summer Long is a staple on country stations.
ReplyDeleteChris Isaak. And it's his birthday today.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with Lyle. And women line up for him because he's a) a musician and b) incredibly charming. LOVE his music and he does a great show. See him with John Hiatt if you can. Another great songwriter.
ReplyDeleteNOT Willie..He probably has helped out a waitress or two but no actress girlfriends except for maybe Amy.
Dwight Yoakam (sp.?).
ReplyDeleteCancel my Yoakam guess. Agreeing more with the Kid Rock guesses.
ReplyDeleteChris Isaac
ReplyDeleteI want this to be Dwight Yoakam, because I am a big fan of his. Also he dated Bridget. Fonda, Karen Duffy and Sharon Stone.
ReplyDeleteLyle Lovettt is a country artist, comes from the Texas swing tradition, for all you "I like him but hate country" folks. Congrats, you like GOOD country music!
Not sure but for some reason Micheal Bolton came to mind
ReplyDeleteWillie Nelson dated Amy Irving. Does that count?
