Kings Of Leon frontman Caleb Followill spoke to The Independent to promote the new Kings Of Leon album, Can We Please Have Fun? The singer shared the challenging but supportive upbringing he and his brothers Nathan and Jared faced growing up. “We didn’t have any money. We went to bed hungry and we were embarrassed by the clothes that we wore as kids. But while all that was happening, our mom was still saying, ‘You guys know that you’re going to be really special. You guys are going to do something great,” he revealed. “You can start with very little and go very far if you work hard.” When asked if his own kids, who he has with model Lily Aldridge, would have that same work ethic or rely on their parents’ success to get them by, Followill emphatically responded, “Nepo babies? No, I’m not giving my kids sh-t. They gotta get it themselves.” (NME)
