In 1985, Kristofferson joined fellow country artists Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Johnny Cash in the country music supergroup the Highwaymen, which was a key creative force in the outlaw country music movement that eschewed the traditional Nashville country music machine in favor of independent songwriting and producing.
As an actor, Kristofferson was known for his roles in Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973), Blume in Love (1973), Alice Doesn’t Live Here Anymore (1974), A Star Is Born (1976) (which earned him a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor), Convoy (1978), Heaven’s Gate (1980), Stagecoach (1986), Lone Star (1996), and the Blade film trilogy (1998–2004). Kristofferson was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2004.

Justin Reid Says Both The Chiefs And Him Wanted To Stay In Kansas City: “I was also texting Coach Spags and Coach Merritt the whole time to see if something could be worked out, but the only constant in this business is change. I don’t think it was a lack of want to on either side, but rather just a product of the situation and beat salary cap space was available, and what moves were an emphasis of the offseason. I was trying to wait to see if we could get something worked out, and it just didn’t work out. That’s why I ended up choosing the Saints.”
