Chris Young: Upstaged On Valentine’s Day
Chris Young is one country star who doesn’t share his dating habits or girlfriends with the public. He likes to keep his private life private. He does, however, sing and write about love in his songs.
In a recent interview, Chris laughed that he’s been permanently upstaged on Valentine’s Day. He said, “My favorite story about Valentine’s Day is everybody’s like, ‘So, what are you gonna do special?’ or, you know, kind of, ‘What do you have in your back pocket on Valentine’s Day?’ And I can never live up to my stepdad because he asked my mom to marry him on Valentine’s Day, and then called us down from upstairs and asked me and my sister for permission.”
He concluded, “So, pretty much anything I do, he made me look like a punk for the rest of my life on Valentine’s Day.”
Young also shared with us the funniest pick-up line he’s ever heard. He shared, “This is not mine, but this is a buddy of mine, and I thought this was the funniest line I’ve ever heard — and he used it on a bartender one time, and it worked. He said…he walked up to her, he’s like, ‘Look, you’re pretty much the hottest woman in here, and I’m pretty much the least attractive guy. You’re my only shot at havin’ average-looking kids. Can I get your number?'”

Even though he is a master at writing and singing love songs, Chris says that he’s never resorted to song lyrics when he wanted to impress a woman. He offered, “I have never, ever, speaking to a girl, tried to pass off lyrics of a song as, like, what I wanted to say. Like, I honestly have never tried that. I don’t even know if that would work. I mean, most girls are gonna be able to figure out that’s from a song, aren’t they? Maybe not; maybe I’m just missing out on a great opportunity that I have to totally make myself sound smarter and cooler than I actually am by using song lyrics.”
He joked, “I’ll just go find songs that I’ve written already that haven’t come out and just have that shelved for when I need to say somethin’ that doesn’t sound moronic to a woman.”
