Take 5: The CO’s Troy Akers
Take 5 w/ The CO’s Troy Akers
1. Your hair often becomes the topic of many conversations. What’s the worst hairstyle you’ve had and can you share a photo?
Luckily my worst hairstyle was before the kinds of Facebook. But my worst, in my opinion, was in high-school. I would bleach my hair in the summer on the top…and it was pretty much a glorified bowl-cut. Trust me, photos wouldn’t do it justice.
2. You recently became vegetarian, but if there were one meal that you’d cheat with, what would it be?
Anything from Burger Up [in Nashville]. Anything. Sorry I’m not sorry.
3. Tell me the most embarrassing thing about Nate (that won’t get you in too much trouble for sharing).
Nate has a thing for anything by Brian McKnight. He and I DJ a lot under our moniker DJ Kim + The Karsa$hians and whenever that one slow dance song comes on… he gushes.
4. Your phone is constantly blowing up. What was the last text you received? And what’s your current ringtone?
Our manager getting on to me about what tweets I send out. (Go figure. Hahaha.) Current ringtone: “Talk” by Coldplay from ‘X&Y’.
5. The most important question of all, so consider it carefully: Lana or T. Swift?
Taylor. I have a good friend who is a tad more in love with Lana than I. You might know him, yeah? Taylor is an amazing writer and artist. There is something about her that has drawn me to her for quite a while. Let’s make it happen.
