Over the decades, plenty of country music stars have appeared in TV shows and movies. Of those, a select few went on to develop a successful second career in acting. Folks like Willie Nelson, Dolly Parton, Reba McEntire and Trace Adkins immediately come to mind, and of course, Tim McGraw. For a better part of his professional life, McGraw has had one foot firmly planted in both music and film – flexing his acting chops in projects like "Friday Night Lights," "The Blind Side" and "1883." Reflecting on his body of work, the "Humble and Kind" singer opened up about the biggest differences between the two facets of entertainment. For instance, writing, recording and performing music offers artists little downtime, a lot of quick feedback and instant gratification (especially from fans at shows). On the flip side, actors spend a surprising amount of time waiting around on set. When a scene is finished, there are no hoots, hollers or applause and practically zero feedback as the cast and crew transition to the next set up. The 58-year-old entertainer admits those confusing and jarring aspects of filming were a tough adjustment during his earliest roles.
