The first person to congratulate Taylor Swift on her CMA Entertainer of the Year Award was Kenny Chesney, and she shared with CMT Insider what he said:

“He just said, ‘I’m so proud of you and I love you so much,’” she recalled. “We were texting earlier, and we were saying that same thing, like, ‘No matter what happens tonight, I love you so much.’ And it was just like I really, really love Kenny a lot. All the other people in the category with me have taken me out on tour as their opening act. Every one of them — Keith, Brad, George, Kenny — all of them. And so those are people that I’ve looked up to and just held up in my head as these heroes, and they’re always going to that for me.”

You can watch CMT Insider today (Nov. 14) at 1 p.m. ET/PT.

I think Kenny was being the southern gentleman everyone knows he is. He doesn’t need another EOTY. He has 8. Let’s see TS rack m up like that! HA! Not likely! Kenny is a really great guy. That comes right from his soul not any sense of propriety.

These are kind words that kenny told to Taylor Swift,but i am going to agree
with laura on her comment.Taylor Swift is only 19 years old.By the way though,
Kenny Chesney was being sweet to Taylor Swift on her win as Entertainer Of The
Year.Lets not jump into Kenny and Taylor having a relationship,because this is
not true.Kenny is already in a relationship with his girlfriend Amy Colley for
1 year.And Taylor Swift is dating an actor Taylor Lautner From the Twilight movie.Kenny was only being sweet to Taylor Swift only and that is all.

Kenny’s such a class act. & He totally should have won entertainer. I’m still a bit heated about it and it’s really changed how I feel about Taylor.

Way to go Kenny…doing the right is what we all should do. You seem to be a good guy and it’s great how alot of Country Stars help the up and coming artist. Good luck in 2010 and hope to see you soon!!!

I think it was a wonderful comment that any best friend or big brother would have said to congratulate their loved one.

I believe people should focus on the positive aspect of a more experienced artist mentoring an up-and-coming artist in the industry.
