Yaaaay... uh, wait -- did he go anywhere???!?!?!?!
Kenny Chesney admits to dark days after his 2005 quickie marriage to and annulment from actress Renée Zellweger, but in an interview with The Tennessean, he says he's back in top form.
"I feel like I've got my edge back," Chesney tells the paper. "I've been playing guitar a lot lately. There was a period at the end of 2005 and really all of 2006 where I never took the guitar case out of the closet when I was at home. I was in such a personal funk after the Renée thing that I could have played [a stadium concert] every day of the week and wouldn't have felt much joy from it."
"I don't like being in certain magazines. And who would? But that's part of what comes with this. And 'this' is going out and playing these shows and I love that. It's so addictive I can't even begin to tell you," he said, adding: "I'm a carefree spirit, and everybody out here lives by the 'work hard and play harder' rule. But it's not always like this ... I'm more in the moment this year than I have been the last couple of years, and I notice more of the good thing, and I like it that way."
