Kane Brown Talks Fitness, Fast Cars, Acting, and New Music in Candid Interview
Country star Kane Brown recently joined the Bobby Bones Show, opening up about his latest projects, fitness journey, and personal moments offstage. The conversation was filled with humor, insights, and some exciting career updates. Here’s a breakdown of what Kane shared:
The Story Behind His Name
Kane revealed a funny story about being the only “Kane” most people know, except for one other kid from his Little League team — aptly named “Kane White.” His mother once told him he was named after the wrestling legend The Big Red Machine (Kane), but after checking timelines, Kane suspects she made that up. If he’d been a girl, he would’ve been named Skyler.
60-Hour Fast and Newfound Fitness Obsession
One of the interview’s highlights was Kane’s story about a 60-hour fast he completed with his team in Quebec City. The fast was a turning point for him, shifting from poor eating habits on tour to a disciplined, health-focused lifestyle. The fast wasn’t easy — surrounded by temptations like Doritos while snowed in — but having a support group helped.
Since then, Kane’s embraced bodybuilding, trading late-night fast food for clean meals of chicken and rice. He also discovered new energy through running and black coffee, and joked about developing a love for fitness science, especially learning how his physique responds to different exercises.
His Famous Truck and Lamborghini Adventure
Kane shared the sentimental story of his first truck, “Rex”, a Denali GMC he promised to buy from a high school friend after scoring his first number one hit — which he did with What Ifs. Rex still holds a special place in his heart.
He also talked about his latest indulgence: a Lamborghini Spyder. Initially, Kane swore he’d never buy such a flashy car, but a personal investment success changed his mind. While he loves the car, he admitted it’s not the most practical ride — especially on Nashville’s pothole-riddled streets — and even joked about how long it takes for the car to raise its suspension. Despite its impracticalities, driving a Lambo in Tennessee, where exotic cars are rare, makes for quite the head-turner.
Upcoming Movie Project with Taylor Lautner
Kane confirmed he’s signed on for a comedy film titled The Token Groomsman, starring actor Taylor Lautner. Though filming hasn’t started, the script is ready, and Kane’s excited about the project. He plays Taylor’s character’s best friend, popping in for comic relief throughout the movie. Shooting is planned in Italy — a destination Kane has yet to visit.
The New Song: Backseat Driver
Kane also discussed his latest single, Backseat Driver, revealing the song had circulated in the industry for four to five years before he finally recorded it. The track resonates with Kane personally, evoking memories of his childhood rides to school with a McDonald’s orange juice and sausage biscuit. Now a father himself, the song reminds him of the simple questions his daughter Kingsley asks — making it all the more meaningful.
A New Era of Kane Brown
Finally, Kane hinted at a shift in his career focus. After taking a step back from social media while dealing with personal struggles and family life, he’s now determined to reconnect with fans online. He plans to double down on promoting his new song and share more of his daily life and projects.
Conclusion
From fasting transformations and luxury cars to acting debuts and nostalgic new music, Kane Brown’s journey continues to evolve. With fresh energy and a packed tour schedule through October — including a run in Europe — fans can expect plenty more from the country star in the months ahead.
