Some artists, like Tim McGraw, are scared silly by TV cameras, but for Trace Adkins it's becoming second nature.
Adkins made his seventh appearance on ABC's Politically Incorrect last week.
The singer is a favourite of host Bill Maher.
"Well, Bill just gets a kick out of me. I don't know how many times I've been on that show that he's gone to a commercial laughing 'cause he gets a kick out of something I said because he thinks I am 'Captain Redneck,' " Adkins laughs.
"Now it's gotten to where sometimes I say things that I don't really honestly feel that hardcore, but I say it anyway just to make him or make him laugh or something."
