Singer Sheryl Crow, 63, waved goodbye to her Tesla as she sold the electric car and blasted billionaire “President Musk” in a viral clip. “There comes a time when you have to decide who you are willing to align with. So long Tesla,” Crow captioned an Instagram post rebuking Elon Musk’s intensifying political power as leader of the Department of Government Efficiency as well as President Donald Trump. Crow pledged to donate the money generated from the sale to NPR, “which is under threat by President Musk,” in hopes that “the truth will continue to find its way to those willing to know the truth.” About her decision to sell the car, Crow wrote, “My parents always said … you are who you hang out with.” (The Daily Beast)

Sheryl Crow Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction
“I don’t feel like I’ve been doing this that long. It’s gone so fast. I really didn’t see this coming”
On November 3rd (2023) hometown girl Sheryl Crow will be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame alongside George Michael, Missy Elliott, Rage Against The Machine, Willie Nelson, the Spinners, Kate Bush, Chaka Khan, DJ Kool Herc, Al Kooper, Bernie Taupin, and Don Cornelius. From the Rolling Stone interview:
I could not have predicted it if I tried, especially in the early days of my career, coming from a town with three stoplights. Having grown up listening to Willie on my radio station, I just couldn’t have predicted it. There’s no way.
First and foremost, Willie Nelson is my favorite person to sing with in the universe. But if I get to stand and sing with Chaka Khan, I’m afraid I will lose my shit. [Laughs] She’s one of the greatest singers of all time and just a badass.
When the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum opened up in Cleveland in 1995 with a massive stadium concert featuring Bob Dylan, Chuck Berry, Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Lee Lewis, and countless other rock veterans, Sheryl Crow was one of the youngest artists on the bill.

Inside Sheryl Crow’s Country Home
If Kennett, Missouri, (my home town) has a claim to fame it’s Sheryl Crow. Says so on the “Welcome to Kennett” signs on each end of town. I’m 14 years older than Ms. Crow so we weren’t in school at the same time. I was more familiar with her folks. They lived just down the street (rectangle) from where I grew up.
If you liked her before, you’ll love her even more after touring her home.
