BUCKY COVINGTON INTERVIEW: 11 QUESTIONS

What would fans be surprised to know about you?

I don’t feel good! I look like Dewey Cox from “Walk Hard”! I worked in a body shop for seven years. People will pick things up long before me. Which, trust me, isn’t a bad thing to have. If you’re on a tight plane and some little rascal lets you go, I don’t really mind.

Is Simon Cowell as scary in person as he looks on TV?

Everyone on TV has a role to play… I think he’s a pretty nice guy, I don’t think it’s that hard for him to play that role!

You worked in a body shop growing up. What is your dream car and what kind of car did you drive in high school?

My brother and I shared an ’89 Ford Ranger in high school. And soon after, we got a Bel Air three-speed 64 on the column. My dream car is a 68 Camaro, and I own it now!

If you only had one day left to live on earth, how would you spend it and with whom?

It would definitely be with my girlfriend and my brother, and I don’t think it matters what we did.

Who is your favorite superhero?

Superman…because he had x-ray vision! Come on…get it? I actually didn’t get too into comics or anything as a kid, but the Superman movies were the best!

Who’s the coolest person you’ve met?

Billy Bob Thornton. I went to his house and hung out drinking lukewarm Coronas. This guy is the epitome of cool. We were talking about movies and music, and he brings up the movie ‘Sling Blade’, and I said, ‘Were you into ‘Sling Blade’? It was a great movie! And he thanked me. I asked who he was in ‘Sling Blade’, and he said, ‘Carl.’ I said, ‘He’s the main character!’ I didn’t even know he was in it! But actually, technically, it’s a huge compliment to an actor, that I watched the movie, and I didn’t know it was [him]! And he also wrote the movie dang!

If you could invite five people, living or dead, to dinner, who would you ask?

Elvis [Presley] would definitely be top of the table – you don’t have to wonder why. Jeff Healey was one of the main reasons I got into music, so I would invite him. Johnny Lang, I’m also a big fan of his. And Tim McGraw, he had to be there…and Tim might as well bring Faith [Hill]! What’s a bad habit you’d like to quit?

I finally quit the biggest bad habit I had for years. I used to smoke cigarettes and quit that. I don’t like to brag about it because people [will say], ‘You weren’t supposed to in the first place!’ Well, it’s true. I have to think about the next one I have to get rid of, because there are a few!

Do you collect anything or have any hobbies?

I collect dirt bikes. I have a plethora of dirt bikes. I have huge hobbies: I like to do anything outdoors, quad biking, dirt-biking, boating, something like that.

What do you miss the most about being a kid?

Be injured and heal quickly! Before, if you woke up in the morning, you felt better. But now not so much. I actually ride smaller bikes now, so it doesn’t hurt that bad!

What is your biggest fear and why?

It would probably ruin my career. I’ve been very lucky to be able to do what I do for a living, and not being able to do that would just suck.
