NASHVILLE -- Kenny Chesney has a new honor -- and receiving it left him nearly speechless.

He was presented with a plaque celebrating 25 million records sold during the 20th annual RCA Boat Cruise in Nashville.

After the presentation, Chesney said that when he first came to Nashville, he was a kid who wanted to sing songs like the people who'd inspired him: Keith Whitley, Conway Twitty and Alabama.

Chesney's label said he has now sold more albums than The Who, The Doobie Brothers, The Police, and Jimmy Buffett.

I thought he was a country artist, not rock?


Either way, he still has male-pattern baldness.
