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.
Lyle Lovett
Awwwww.
ReplyDeleteLyle. You weren't blessed with the handsome stick. But you were with the nice one. Whatever possessed you to marry Julia?
ReplyDeleteJust proving that opposites attract! : D
Deletethat's awesome. I love when people help out others in their own community
ReplyDeleteAwwww. Sweet. My first instinct was him but wanted it to be Kid.
ReplyDeleteVery cool, Lyle.
ReplyDeleteHe's always struck me as a nice guy. This just proves he is.
ReplyDeleteHe is incredible in concert. No flashpots and lasers; just a very good, professional set.
ReplyDeleteClaps for Lyle!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet of him to care, that he didn't "leak" it to the paps says alot... What a great thing to do
ReplyDeletederek your an avi addict now
ReplyDeleteViolet - the food in your avi looks good. Roast potatoes?
ReplyDelete@sugarbr haha I guess so. Needed to change it to something a little more sensual and that shows the 2 sides of my personality ; )
ReplyDeleteI <3 Lyle. Lyle in a kindness, even better!
ReplyDelete@Violet, he's not attractive by "most" standards, but there's always been... that something about him. Oh yes, I would! :)
Totally agree Rhysie! That man sings with his whole face, and yet so still...
DeleteLyle Lovett's right beside me with his hand upon my thigh. Julia Roberts's is right behind me saying, "girl, don't even try!" (Alt lyrics)
ReplyDelete@derek.. what crack and champagne??
ReplyDeleteDoes he always carry that much cash around? I just don't believe this story.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a hit record soon Lyle!
ReplyDeleteI don't think he needs it, Sandy. He's not doing arena shows, but his concerts sell out consistently. He plays an outdoor venue by me every year, and every year tickets are gone within minutes. At $80 a pop, and roughly 10,000 attending; that's a decent chunk of change. I don't know what his percentage cut is, and obviously the other members of the band need to get paid, but that's still a nice paycheck for several hours of work.
Delete@sugarbr breakfast of champions ; )
ReplyDeleteAnother heartwarming blind- even better than the kindness reveal on the 4th about Arnold and Vannessa Williams.
ReplyDeleteLove me some Lovett.
ReplyDeleteNow thats a dude. On the path for sure! Love his music too.
ReplyDeleteMet him years ago when I worked at a venue where he was playing. Could not have been nicer and sweeter. And actually was very handsome in a charismatic way in person -- smelled nice, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a guy! My mom and grandma were on a flight with him to TX, and they wouldn't even say hi or smile ay him! I told them that he seemed like a sweet normal guy who would have smiled right back at two old ladies who were just being nice and not all up in his face. We saw him pull up in just a van or something, and the way he smiled so genuinely at the guys helping him with his bags, I knew he had to be good people. I'm dying to know just what he saw in Julia, you know?!
ReplyDeletewhat a great guy
ReplyDeleteglad Julia didn't ruin him
@warmislandsun - he could have written a check, or filled in the "tip" portion using a card.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely. :)
Outstanding!! Lyle rules!
