Chesney sought fan support before ACM Awards

Kenny Chesney may not have wanted online voters to decide one of country music’s top awards, but he still asked his fans to click for him.

Chesney criticized the process Sunday night after his supporters propelled him to a fourth straight entertainer of the year win at the Academy of Country Music Awards.

“I don’t think it’s right that they pick the one award that means the most, that all the artists sacrifice the most for,” Chesney told reporters backstage after thanking fans for voting for him as he accepted the award onstage.

But that didn’t mean Chesney hadn’t played along. Chesney’s MySpace page still carried a large banner Monday urging fans to “bring it home for KC,” with links to the academy’s online page and messages from fans lower on the page.

The page also included a May 1 posting urging fans to vote, with a video of Chesney saying that awards are important for history’s sake – so people can look back to see what musicians had accomplished.
