There’s no better way to get you out of those Monday blues than with some male eye candy!
This week, our #ManCrushMonday is none other than country artist Drew Baldridge, AKA one of the sweetest men in Nashville. If you ever get the pleasure of chatting with him, you will notice right away that he is so genuine and such a kind-hearted person!
In addition to his good looks, Baldridge has some killer music and a wonderful personality to go along with it. He describes his music as being “funktry,” meaning that “it makes you want to move and dance” and “very positive listening, high energy, and just real.”
Celeb Secrets Country had Drew fill out a fun questionnaire so we have even more reasons to crush on him. From the number one quality he looks for in a partner to the most romantic song he’s ever recorded, this Q&A will have you obsessing over Drew in no time.
Keep up with Drew by following him on Instagram at @drewbaldridgemusic.
Celeb Secrets Country: Who are the last three artists that you listened to on Spotify?
Drew Baldridge: “Earth, Wind & Fire, Josh Turner, and Granger Smith.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is the #1 quality that you look for in a partner?
Drew Baldridge: “That she loves Jesus.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is the most romantic thing that you have done?
Drew Baldridge: “When I was younger, I took this girl up for a sunset plane ride for Valentine’s Day. I think that was pretty romantic. But when I got there, the guy asked if I wanted to fly the plane, so it ended up not being really romantic. But the thought was really romantic!”
Celeb Secrets Country: Does “Rebound” reflect personally on you and your recent relationships?
Drew Baldridge: “It doesn’t. I’ve got a girlfriend now and she’s really really awesome. It doesn’t reflect what I’m going through at the moment. But at the time that I wrote it, I was going through some stuff and I really wanted to write it for the people out there. I feel like everybody has been through a situation like that in their lives, so I was really writing it for the people out there who deserve to be somebody’s number one. Nobody deserves to be second choice. That’s why I wrote “Rebound!””
Celeb Secrets Country: Tell us about your dream date and the dream girl on it.
Drew Baldridge: “Well the girl on it would definitely be my girlfriend, 100%! We went to Aruba last week for four days, that whole time was a date. We had four days on a beach and it was all inclusive, endless drinks and all you can eat for free. It was amazing! It was one on one time on a beach, chilling out, nobody we knew, it was really great.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is your guilty pleasure?
Drew Baldridge: “Probably pizza! I love pizza!! DiGiornio’s is my favorite.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is your favorite Rom-Com?
Drew Baldridge: “I am an action packed movie guy, so when it comes to these romantic comedies its kind of tough for me. 50 First Dates with Adam Sandler, everyday he makes her fall in love with her again. It’s a hard task, and he does it!”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is a weird habit that you have?
Drew Baldridge: “I constantly just sing for no reason. If we’re in the car and driving or if I’m cooking, it makes no sense! People kind of look at me and wonder what I’m singing, because I sing gibberish.”
Celeb Secrets Country: Tell us your favorite joke!
Drew Baldridge: “I knew a joke one time about pizza… but it was pretty cheesy.”
Celeb Secrets Country: How would you describe your sense of humor?
Drew Baldridge: “Sarcastic! Me and my band are very sarcastic, all of us. And my guitar player, he’s way over sarcastic. Its kind of turned that way a lot the last couple of years because we’re together a lot. Everything that comes out of our mouth is very sarcastic.”
Celeb Secrets Country: Tell us about your relationship with your mom!
Drew Baldridge: “I love my mom! I tell her everything, I’m kind of a momma’s boy. She’s been my rock, my number one believer, and I still love her to this day and I call my mom all the time. I’m really close with my dad too, we’re a really close family. I wouldn’t change anything about the way they raised me.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is the most romantic song that you have recorded?
Drew Baldridge: “We have a song on our first record called “Burnt Toast,” and its really funny! I don’t know if I would say its romantic, but its about how she does everything great! She can drive a stick shift, she can fish, all these fun stuff, but she just can’t cook. Its really really cute, smiling through the smoke. Its super cute.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What is the best way to pickup a girl?
Drew Baldridge: “Complimenting! Go up and compliment what you think is nice about them.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What do you think makes you a great Man Crush Monday?
Drew Baldridge: “I try to be a good dude, I try to treat everybody right. I try my best to be a nice guy, and if that’s what makes me a Man Crush Monday, that would be great.”
Celeb Secrets Country: What are some fun fan interactions you have had?
Drew Baldridge: “We have a lot of fans that see I love Oreos, I’m a really unhealthy eater, and like anything sweet. So we have a handful of fans that when they come to my shows they’ll bring food like cupcakes, Oreos, and Skittles. Its really thoughtful of my fans! They’re not only fans of my music, but who I am as a person. I really love them for supporting me, because without them, I wouldn’t be able to do what I do.”
Celeb Secrets Country: Since we are Celeb Secrets Country, what is a secret you have about yourself that you would like to share with us?
Drew Baldridge: “I love cartoon movies. I love Disney movies! The music in them is flawless. I love animated movies. I just watched Angry Birds and thought it was hilarious.”
