Instead of singing the original lyrics, \u201cWhen they\u2019re tryna get to you, baby I\u2019ll be the fighter,\u201d he gave a shoutout to his touring guitarist Maggie Baugh and sang, \u201cWhen they\u2019re tryna get to you, Maggie, I\u2019ll be your guitar player.\u201d<\/p>\n

This deviation raised eyebrows at the time, as Keith previously admitted the single was inspired by his 20-year marriage to the Babygirl actor. Though he didn\u2019t address the subtle lyric change, fellow country singer Alexandra Kay made sure to shut down the rumors<\/a> that Keith and Maggie are an item.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI know that\u2019s absolutely not true,\u201d Alexandra told Taste of Country<\/a> last month. \u201cHonestly, I was heartbroken for them because the media scrutiny is insane and the things that people say… They\u2019re like, stirring up rumors about Maggie Baugh, and I\u2019m like, \u2018She\u2019s a good friend of mine.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

In fact, the \u201cHow Do We Go\u201d singer revealed that the guitarist is in a relationship with someone else, emphasizing she has \u201cnothing\u201d to do with Nicole and Keith\u2019s fall out.
\u201cI\u2019ve met her boyfriend,\u201d she continued. \u201cShe\u2019s very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Instead of singing the original lyrics, \u201cWhen they\u2019re tryna get to you, baby I\u2019ll be the fighter,\u201d he…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":302711,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[53],"tags":[88,216],"class_list":{"0":"post-302710","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-music"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/302710","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=302710"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/302710\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/302711"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=302710"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=302710"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=302710"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
