Chris Stapleton on Being Voted Most Stylish, Writing a Song for His Wife & the Future of His Beard

[@lw3269]

'"Were you a good student?" "I was the valedictorian". Mic drop. Dude is talented AND smart.

[@kikivon3501]

He was a varsity athlete and attended Vanderbilt for bio-engineering. He dropped out to pursue music. He is all these things, AND a genuinely good and decent person. Some people are just blessed, he’s one of those people.

[@Brando-_-440]

Yeah Jimmy trying to make fun of nothing to make fun of.... class

[@Cheryl9675]

My EXACT thought (mic drop)!

[@Mushroom321-]

WOW!!!😮😮🎉😊

[@rikkiechambers4959]

My brother from another mother passed almost 3 years ago now .. the only song he ever sent me was Chris’s song about friends and friendship .. when my heart hurts and I miss him I pull it up on my play list and it reminds me how much he really did care even if he wasn’t capable of saying so himself .. thank you for giving me somethin to hold onto from my brother it’s a small thing that now means so very much . Don’t ever stop performing or writing , your music touches so very many ❤

[@johnreed1840]

Thank you for sharing this. My brother from another mother passed a few months ago. I appreciate knowing how someone else is walking the road afterwards

[@edsyphan3425]

I urge you to give a listen to his previous band, Steeldriver. Even if you don’t care for bluegrass, I think the lyrics are next level.

[@createful_heart]

Chris is a funny guy and it's nice to see him open up more and hear him laugh. Oh, and he can sing, too. 😁

[@arethawalker1724]

Yaassss❤❤❤ Luv Chris Stapleton!!!! His voice is full of soul❤

[@IndigoBlue1984]

What a BOSS! Since the first song I ever heard, THIS is what country fans have been missing. An old school, true country/blues singer-songwriter. Humility just makes him more lovable. And Valedictorian?! Shut the Front Door! A national treasure, for sure. ❤

[@sakitoby1581]

The man is a humble king. National treasure is right! Seeing him perform live was a huge thrill a few yrs ago. Hope I can again someday.

[@lifesabitch8012]

Chris is a beautiful guy and LOVES HIS WIFE WITH ALL HIS HEART!!💞 ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIS VOICE!!💯☝️🎤🔥🎶💞🫂🤗😘🥰🌟❤️🌟

[@russellrofe4849]

I love his work with The Steeldrivers too.

[@iideal]

I ❤ Chris Stapleton. Even he sounds so good when he speaks 🤠

[@trs7656]

The songs did with the steeldrivers were absolutely INSANE ! I can't stop listening to Midnight Train To Memphis for days now... thanks Chris

[@BarbaraRosen-uc4dl]

Chris is so amazing. Totally love him

[@nicsxnin6786]

Not a country music fan but this guy has an amazing voice!👏👏👏

[@patriciadavis1393]

But Chris Stapleton is not totally country in probably not even have of his music is considered country he does a lot more Blues in my humble opinion

[@magilla7887]

Chris seems so genuine about his work and life. I have never been a big fan of country music but after listening to this man sing and play guitar ❤ thanks 🙏 brother for doing what it is that you do. Many Blessings

[@domwinton872]

Such a cool guy

[@AliKaytish]

I am not a huge country fan anymore but obviously love his songs.... I was NOT AWARE of Chris Stapleton's goofy kind brilliant soul ❤❤❤

[@Christi6746]

If you haven't already, you should check out this past week's SNL. He was the guest music host and also appeared in a sketch or two. Hilarious guy!

[@wendyboothman294]

Play Cold… it’s soulful ❤

[@actownsend7288]

He also has been on JKL

[@becker8565]

Yo yo yo yo yo yo I love this guy Tennessee whiskey

[@naeemahhawthorne2850]

Absolutely love him!

[@susanbrown822]

I am a huge fan of Chris Stapleton since his first album and appearance on SNL. I was thrilled to see that the few people that weren't familiar with him, pretty much broke the Internet to check him out after he sang the national anthem at the SB. Despite his brilliant talent, he struggled iniitially being a front man with a bit of stage fright. Years later, it's great to see him having fun with Jimmy Kimmel and killing it on a recent SNL skit. He is incredibly talented, but remains surprisingly humble. If you haven't, check him out!!

[@BROWNEYEDGIRLWILEY]

He's the best, and Morganne completes him perfectly. ❤

[@jiffjiffernson7292]

I'm not a new school or corporate country guy but I like this guy - real talent by any and all definition. Glad to see he is seeing a broader audience. Nice Jimmy. Will take a look at the Whisky too.

[@LizzieMcgraw]

You definitely deserve more recognition for this!

[@erikhernandez2009]

Nice person! Very humble human being

[@katalac]

Love the hat! Love the song too!❤

[@huleenmiller5807]

I just saw Chris last weekend at Met Life Stadium in New Jersey. He was amazing and his wife was there too. Such a powerful rocker he was. He is country singer but man he can rock and roll. Loved him

[@mariagoode5903]

He is so humble ❤ So blessed to hear his music it touches your soul, Thank you sir 💞

[@treblenote2]

Chris is so KOOL !! glad he is getting the well deserved recognition !

[@monl3807]

[@TradeWynn65]

My favorite country artist ❤

[@makelifematter1896]

Love Country Music grew up with the good old boys and ladies..I love this song and think hes a true man family and children..think his wife should get alittle more recognized but this song says so much❤

[@Ragos71]

A Beard clean and trimmed in some manners is a Man`s Pride. Never ever talk bad about a Man`s Beard.

[@LindaC616]

I think "trimmed" might be questioned in this case. But he's happy, she's happy, everyone else can stay out of it

[@joannescott5148]

Love love Chris Stapleton best country artist in this generation.

[@Ali-Bea]

When I was last ill I acfually spent time imagining being on a talk show with Chris Stapleton. And here we are 😂

[@lmcsquaredgreendale3223]

Chris Stapleton is indeed an expert because he stayed in tune despite the turn the lyrics took. I had a feeling John Stamos was in the green room and was on his way out. ...not to mention Trump still fuming about the Oscar Joke, that made my night. Altogether a great show.

[@carolinchen4683]

Stand-up, honest, kind guy.

[@kristytouchet8362]

I love his music!

[@shafersongs]

Stapleton is an excellent songwriter too with a number of hits for other people. And if you ever gets tired of this, he can just go front of Blues band. He really has that kind of voice.

[@RonaldParker-cx5gu]

Chris Stapleton is awesome. I just hate how Hollywood has no clue how awesome he is.😊

[@r.mcbride2837]

Chris Stapleton seems like such a nice, down-to-earth guy. He and his wife seem like the kind of folks you'd like to have for next door neighbors and do your 4th of July BBQ's together.

[@douglasmcconnell8116]

Humble Man & hope to see his show someday..

[@ramonamaynard6113]

I love him and his music!

[@papadougpapadougsadventures]

Now that’s a cowboy hat!!

[@nooneanybodyknows7912]

Chris Stapelton ❤

[@SwivelHippie]

He's 100 percent gonna pick Jamaica, where ian Fleming wrote most of the books, and where they filmed 2 of the movies on location

[@peppermoon7485]

Chris Stapleton is awesome 💙🇺🇸💙🎶

[@BeverlyLounsbury]

Totally ❤

[@sakitoby1581]

My idea: What if Chris covered Dolly's "Jolene" with some lyrics tweaks to make it from a man's perspective? Like "she cannot compete with you, Jolene" and "please don't tempt me just because you can." In other words, a man who is drawn to Jolene and fears he won't be able to resist her sultry charms but because he's a decent man at heart, he's asking her not to lure HIM away from his wife, because he knows he's powerless to resist Jolene. Would it work? I feel like Stapleton could pull it off. Has a man ever sung Jolene from the male pov?? I've always said Chris could sing anything... I would love to hear that.

[@dreamnumber99]

He's definitely a rocker❤

[@AcousticHeart787]

I don't like country music but I love chris stapleton's music😍😍😍

[@vickicook8980]

Best singer ever.

[@MattFitz75]

Not a country fan, more extreme metal and dark psytrance; but…. Chris is phenomenal, so glad I’ve come across him!

[@NewMessage]

You've already achieved peak 'this guy looks like he owns a whiskey brand and plays country music'. Leave the beard as is!

[@loccful]

Fire

[@stewlough9507]

Keep the beard it's really suits your style,brilliant stuff & Mr Kimmel I hope that your child got better,apologies as this is the only place to say it🙏🙏🏻🙏🙏🏻🙏🏼🙏🏽🙏🏾🙏🏿to you & family,Chris keep up the great work you & D.❤

[@Winstonschannel2384]

Love him

[@looneygardener]

What a sweet guy, and funny!

[@BobLopez-b4i]

Very intelligent man,engineering student

[@timclary1963]

First of all I'll say I love Chris Stapleton as an artist but why is he considered country? Then again he's more country than crap like Jason Aldean or Luke Bryant. But I say he's straight up southern soul rock and roll! Who else feels the same way?

[@chalillo2268]

Like a Diamond 💎 on today's garbage country music!

[@janemiller3225]

ME!!

[@petteritolonen2354]

Me too he is a great musician one of my favorites.

[@teresamoreno6650]

Amazing artist 🎼♥️♥️♥️🙏🏻🇺🇸

[@roxanne5766]

He was so funny in the SNL skit 😂😂

[@NellieKAdaba]

I didn't know he was on SNL, I don't watch show anymore for a long time since the early 2000s.

[@melodied4314]

His Stat Spangled Banner rendition is thebest.😊

[@Darci3333]

Chris can you write a song about and dedicate to my cat James Dean....it would make our life😂❤❤❤❤

[@merder415]

Now is still very stylish! awesome style

[@michelleno8]

I wish Chris would have talked more. The questions were so rapid fire. He needed more air time!

[@candicefauble6554]

I love his hat.

[@jamesfeeney8847]

Scotland has a great Bond scene, why don't you visit that in October. It's only an hour or two from Glasgow!!

I've written that as if he's going to read it

[@stewartmaclean6665]

[@tracyj2886]

Omg 🎉❤ John Stamos keeps getting more handsome!! I need to know who he and Rob Lowe know in order to sign the never age badly pact. Good Lord that is a gorgeous man🎉❤ I’ll take older Uncle Jessie any day. I am buying greek yogurt today.

Are they going to post his performance on the new stage?

[@LindaC616]

Seems so

[@TurtleTimeVoiceOvers]

@@LindaC616 Hasn’t been posted yet.

[@TurtleTimeVoiceOvers]

I guess not. That’s a bummer. Maybe it’s on Hulu.

[@LindaC616]

@@TurtleTimeVoiceOvers it's on Chris's channel

[@TurtleTimeVoiceOvers]

@@LindaC616 Thanks. They uploaded it about 10 hours ago. It wasn’t uploaded to Kimmel or Chris’s channel when I commented (yesterday). 😉 Thankfully I found it on Hulu earlier today. It’s very strange that Kimmel’s people didn’t and still haven’t uploaded it. Especially since Jimmy was so proud of the new stage and Chris performing. Thanks again.

[@lisamann8521]

So, where is the video of Chris Stapleton singing the song he wrote for his wife?! 🤔🙄😶
