Kenny Chesney Paid Taylor Swift ‘Quite a Bit’ When a Joint Tour Fell Apart, Then Said ‘Gimme My Money Back’ After Her CMA Win


Kenny Chesney talked firing a 17-year-old Taylor Swift from his tour, his friendship with Jimmy Buffett & upcoming Sphere residency on 'Tonight Show.'

Chesney also talked about his long friendship with Jimmy Buffett, his tribute to the “Cheeseburger in Paradise” singer at last year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony alongside James Taylor and and longtime Coral Reefer Band member Mac McAnally. The singer who just announced an upcoming residency gig at the immersive Sphere in Las Vegas, told Fallon that he signed up for the run despite never seeing a show at the eye-popping, state-of-the-art venue. Kenny Chesney performs onstage during the 14th CMA Triple Play Awards at Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum on April 15, 2024 in Nashville, Tennessee.
