Once again, an animated movie found itself ruling the weekend box office.

In this case, it was 'Rio.' The high-flying kids' movie, which features the voice talent of Anne Hathaway, Jesse Eisenberg and more, pulled in an estimated $40 million, making it the year's best opening thus far.

As our Kenny Chesney contest continues on Facebook – sign up for a chance to win a flight to Green Bay to meet Chesney and see him play on June 11 at Lambeau Field – we're running down some of the highlights of Chesney's prolific career. In his nearly two-decade run at the top of the country charts, Chesney's produced over 30 top 10 hits (not to mention his four Entertainer of the Year nods from the CMA), and his recent achievements are nothing to sneeze at, either – among them his current 'Goin' Coastal Tour' and the release of 'Kenny Chesney: Summer in 3-D.'

Despite all those successes, there are things even Chesney's fans don't know about the star - so we've put together this list of five things about the country star that would probably surprise you.

This month, we're giving you the chance to fly to Green Bay to see Kenny Chesney and hang backstage with the country star.

Visit our contest page on Facebook and you can win a flight for two to Green Bay, tickets to Chesney's Goin' Coastal tour stop at Lambeau Field on June 11, 2011, and a backstage pass to meet the country star.

We're so excited, we assembled these five Kenny Chesney videos, which we think perfectly illustrate the singer's visionary style. Chesney's mind-blowing tour productions and his 3D concert special are something to behold — but we think his eclectic music videos are what really establish the country star's unique sensibility.
