Chris Stapleton is happy to be approached by fans — even if it's not clear who they think they're approaching. In a recent appearance on 'The Jennifer Hudson Show,' Stapleton and host Jennifer Hudson bonded over getting mistaken for other celebrities, with the former 'American Idol' contestant revealing she is often misidentified as Coco Jones or Megan the Stallion. 'I get Jamey Johnson a lot,' Stapleton told Hudson.
There's a line to get in, you're walking into the building, they heard us in there, and some guy just starts losing his mind like, ‘Man I love your music so much,’' he explained. 'I was in Steel Drivers at the time, the first time we ever been nominated for anything. It was a bluegrass band. Nobody knew who we were at the moment. And he just kept going on and on.
Stapleton is nominated for four awards at the upcoming Academy of Country Music Awards, including entertainer of the year, male artist of the year, album of the year and songwriter of the year. In the past, the singer has won 11 ACM Awards, 10 Grammy Awards, 16 CMA Awards and five Billboard Music Awards, with many other nominations for each award show.
Stapleton has been recognized for his songwriting abilities, having been named ACM's first-ever songwriter of the decade in September 2019, and was featured as number 170 on Rolling Stone's list of the 200 Greatest Singers of All Time.
