Trace Adkins may have celebrated his 50th birthday on Jan. 13, but he didn't ask for a rowdy party. For one, the singer doesn't drink -- but he says he just doesn't care about milestones. “Why is it that to chicks, birthdays are such a huge thing," he asked CMT in Oct. 2011. "To me, they’re just not. People have to remind me it’s my birthday … You know that you’re over half done at that [50-year] point. That’s a stark realization.”

2012 was a fun year for Adkins, as he joined Twitter, the new cast of 'Celebrity Apprentice' and released an American working class anthem called 'Tough People Do.'
