'You should see the other guy!' Kenny Rogers posts pic after skin cancer scare

Looks like it was a pretty close call for country legend Kenny Rogers, who tweeted this earlier today:

…but you should see the other guy! Had a bit of #skincancer removed today — I recommend everyone go get checked! http://t.co/E1nyTeaYYf

Here’s the full caption for his Instagram photo:

… but you should see the other guy! Had a bit of skin cancer removed today — I recommend everyone go get checked, especially since May is National Skin Cancer Detection & Prevention Month. Don’t worry though, I’m gonna look great in Knoxville this weekend!

That’s good advice from Rogers. Here’s hoping he makes a full, speedy recovery!

@_KennyRogers Hope all is cool now. You are a treasure..Take care..
