As rumors have been buzzing about Kenny Chensey being gay, he told Playboy magazine that those rumors are definitely not true. In the interview, Chesney said, “What guy who loves girls wouldn't be angry about that...? I didn't sign up for that. I think people need to live their lives the way they want to, but I'm pretty confident in the fact that I love girls (laughs). I've got a long line of girls who could testify that I am not gay." Rumors flew after Chesney’s marriage to actress Renee Zellweger ended after four short months in 2005. He admitted in the interview that he was not ready for that type of commitment and couldn’t handle the paparazzi that followed their love life. “I mean, I panicked, there's no doubt about it. I just totally panicked," he said, "the only thing I knew to do: I ran. I pushed her away."Earlier in the interview, Chesney stated that he had over 100 girls who could testify that he was not gay. When asked again about that comment, he said, “Man, I was over 100 several years ago…My first five years on the road were intense because I was the guy in college who never got laid until I started playing guitar.”
