Alan Jackson’s Daughter Reveals The Truth About Her Dad

The honkytonk hunk who coordinates country cool with mainstream music, American singer and songwriter Alan Jackson, has been and always will be an icon. With 17 ACMAs, 35 no. 1 hits and 14 top charting albums, it really is no surprise walking musical genius Alan Jackson has his name preceding him. Balancing his undying desire to display his talent, keeping a family-first rule of thumb he was brought up on, and all while remaining true to himself has proven to be quite a struggle for the American singer and songwriter. Perhaps that is why his middle child, Ali, decided it was time to say her piece and let the whole world know who the real man behind the guitar and flapping cowboy hat is.

Family Man – Or Is He?

The man who often prides himself on putting his family first and foremost was taken aback by his middle child Ali, who went on social media to tell the truth about her father.

But what could she possibly reveal that the public doesn’t know? The family has faced many trials and tribulations, and she’s decided to come clean.

Worldwide Sensation

With 17 American Country Music awards, 35 number one singles, and 14 albums that topped charts outstandingly, it is no surprise that Alan Jackson has been named one of the most popular country music stars of his generation.

But there is more to the Georgia native than selling over 80 million records worldwide – and no, we are not talking about his rather peculiar choice of  favorite sandwich, which includes pineapple and mayonnaise. We are talking about what happens the minute Jackson walks off stage.

Biggest Influence

Born in Newnan, Georgia, Jackson was the only boy among five children in total. Growing up with four sisters taught the man plenty about respecting women and how to act around them, as well as how one should stand their ground when living in a crowded household.

Alan also attended church from a very young age, since his parents were devoted Christians who wanted their child to be brought up in an environment that nurtures faith and is God-abiding.

Man Of Faith

Going to church every Sunday not only caused Alan to be a man of faith, but also granted him the opportunity to sing, something he enjoyed doing but never gave too much thought to.

However, belting out songs was not something Alan considered to be a long-term affair, and did not see himself heading down the path of becoming a professional musician. His childhood home was built around his grandpa’s old tool shed, where he was taught to live life simply and had a down-to-earth upbringing.
