Illustrated with photos and film clips from the Museum’s collection, the exhibit features the three-piece suit, shirt, tie, cufflinks, cowboy boots and custom-made cowboy hat Adkins wore on NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice.
Adkins’ honest, forthright songs and no-nonsense persona have invigorated country music since his 1996 debut. He has scored a number of Billboard Top Ten hits, among them “(This Ain’t) No Thinkin’ Thing” (1997), “The Rest of Mine” (1997), “More” (2000), “I’m Tryin’’” (2001), “Honky Tonk Badonkadonk” (2005) and “Ladies Love Country Boys” (2006). In 2007, Adkins’ autobiography and manifesto, A Personal Stand: Observations and Opinions from a Freethinking Roughneck, received critical acclaim. Adkins won over a new legion of fans after becoming a finalist on Celebrity Apprentice in 2008. His third #1 country hit, “You’re Gonna Miss This,” cracked the Top Twenty on the pop charts the same year and was nominated for three Country Music Association awards (Single of the Year, Song of the Year and Video of the Year).
