Listen "Biography Flash: Blake Shelton's Morgan Wallen Rift, Vegas Shows & Sweet Gwen Stefani Birthday Tributes"
Episode Synopsis
Blake Shelton Biography Flash a weekly Biography.Blake Shelton has been filling the headlines this week, and for country fans and celebrity watchers alike, there’s plenty to keep up with. According to Radar Online, Blake made news over a strained friendship with fellow country star Morgan Wallen after Wallen made headlines for allegedly striking Neisha Bautista, wife of baseball player José Bautista, with a bat during his Toronto show last month. Insiders told Radar that both Blake and Luke Bryan, once close to Wallen, are now stepping away from him, with Blake feeling that “tough love” is the only option as he’s watched his former protégé struggle. This rift is especially significant given Shelton’s longstanding mentorship of Wallen, and it’s a reminder that even the most successful friendships in Nashville can hit sour notes.Turning to lighter fare, Blake has been winning at love and social media with his tributes to Gwen Stefani. On her 55th birthday, Blake posted some never-before-seen snaps of the couple on Instagram, calling Gwen his “favorite girl” and telling her, “I love you!” The lovefest was mirrored by Gwen on her own Instagram, where she shared heartfelt thanks for her birthday celebration, and spoke glowingly on The Jennifer Hudson Show about how Blake teaches her about music and keeps her laughing every day. These public displays not only delight fans but cement their status as one of entertainment’s favorite power couples, and the goodwill keeps rolling—fans recently showed support for Blake and Gwen after both chose to pre-tape their performances for the 2025 American Music Awards, prompting Blake to take to X (formerly Twitter) and calmly set the record straight.On the business front, American Songwriter and MSN both report that Blake’s investments and brand collaborations have pushed his net worth toward the $120-$130 million mark, with real estate ranging from a California mansion with Gwen to a sprawling Oklahoma ranch. This is all as his business ventures keep expanding, including his dive-bar restaurant chain Ole Red, which recently opened a new Las Vegas location with a rooftop stage smack on the Strip. In terms of music, Blake is still stacking up wins: he’s celebrating 15 years since his induction into the Grand Ole Opry and has plans to return to The Colosseum at Caesars Palace for eight high-profile shows this coming January—news confirmed by Live Nation and covered by Morningstar.Shelton’s new album For Recreational Use Only is drawing positive reviews, and he’s busy co-producing “The Road,” a just-launched CBS competition series with Taylor Sheridan and Keith Urban. The show’s mix of coast-to-coast performances and behind-the-scenes drama fits perfectly with Blake’s current approach to his career—less time on The Voice, more time producing, performing, and mentoring. In a recent Apple Music Takeover and on Country Countdown USA earlier this week, Blake hinted at perhaps returning for a one-off gig on The Voice someday, something even producers and old tour-mates Dan + Shay have publicly wished for.Long story short: as of this week, Blake Shelton remains a country juggernaut and pop culture mainstay, a hitmaker who’s as comfortable headlining Vegas as he is posting playful selfies with Gwen or shaking up the reality TV world.
