00:00:21,470 --> 00:00:23,211
Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton
4
00:00:23,211 --> 00:00:26,165
are one of music's hottest couples,
5
00:00:26,165 --> 00:00:29,165
despite being such an unlikely pair.
6
00:00:32,287 --> 00:00:33,653
From their early beginnings
7
00:00:33,653 --> 00:00:35,620
appearing on "The Voice" together
8
00:00:35,620 --> 00:00:38,978
to their engagement announcement in 2020,
9
00:00:38,978 --> 00:00:41,898
their relationship has gone
from strength to strength,
10
00:00:41,898 --> 00:00:44,949
and the public just can't get enough.
11
00:00:44,949 --> 00:00:46,839
- Blake!
- Blake, Blake, Blake!
12
00:00:46,839 --> 00:00:49,944
- Blake, Blake!
- Blake, sir, yes sir!
13
00:00:49,944 --> 00:00:53,752
The down-home country singer
and the uptown pop superstar
14
00:00:53,752 --> 00:00:58,243
seemed like an odd couple,
but their romance flourished,
15
00:00:58,243 --> 00:01:01,651
and they confirmed the rumors
about a romantic relationship
16
00:01:01,651 --> 00:01:03,318
in November of 2015,
17
00:01:08,045 --> 00:01:09,963
making their first debut as a couple
18
00:01:09,963 --> 00:01:13,969
at the Vanity Fair Oscars
After Party in 2016.
19
00:01:17,991 --> 00:01:21,458
It wasn't long before they
became musical collaborators
20
00:01:21,458 --> 00:01:25,054
as well as romantic partners
with Gwen recording a duet
21
00:01:25,054 --> 00:01:27,174
for Blake's album, "If I'm Honest,"
22
00:01:27,174 --> 00:01:29,924
and performing together on stage.
23
00:01:34,874 --> 00:01:36,778
Just how did this California girl
24
00:01:36,778 --> 00:01:40,206
end up matched with an
Oklahoma country boy?
25
00:01:40,206 --> 00:01:42,210
Join us as we explore the timelines
26
00:01:42,210 --> 00:01:45,861
of Gwen and Blake's music,
careers, personal achievements,
27
00:01:45,861 --> 00:01:50,694
and the ups-and-downs leading
to their blossoming romance.
28
00:01:59,190 --> 00:02:04,190
Gwen Renee Stefani is a California
girl through and through.
29
00:02:08,514 --> 00:02:11,621
She was born on October third, 1969
30
00:02:11,621 --> 00:02:13,746
in Fullerton, California.
31
00:02:13,746 --> 00:02:17,746
She had a Catholic
upbringing in nearby Anaheim.
32
00:02:22,573 --> 00:02:25,629
In 1987, Gwen graduated from high school
33
00:02:25,629 --> 00:02:28,299
and began attending Fullerton College
34
00:02:28,299 --> 00:02:32,549
before transferring to
California State University.
35
00:02:36,749 --> 00:02:39,623
Around this time, she
began performing vocals
36
00:02:39,623 --> 00:02:41,877
for her oldest brother, Eric's band,
37
00:02:41,877 --> 00:02:46,460
an up-and-coming act brimming
with potential, No Doubt.
38
00:02:48,067 --> 00:02:49,567
It was obvious from the jump
39
00:02:49,567 --> 00:02:52,234
that No Doubt had the it factor.
40
00:02:55,762 --> 00:02:58,932
In 1991, the band was personally signed
41
00:02:58,932 --> 00:03:02,676
to Interscope Records by Jimmy Lovine.
42
00:03:02,676 --> 00:03:06,522
The band released its
self-titled debut album in 1992,
43
00:03:06,522 --> 00:03:09,506
but its ska-pop sound was unsuccessful
44
00:03:09,506 --> 00:03:12,173
due to the popularity of grunge.
45
00:03:15,357 --> 00:03:18,527
No Doubt's third album released in 1995,
46
00:03:18,527 --> 00:03:22,284
"Tragic Kingdom" was considered
the band's defining album,
47
00:03:22,284 --> 00:03:25,617
which gained them widespread popularity.
48
00:03:29,414 --> 00:03:32,415
Five singles were released
from "Tragic Kingdom",
49
00:03:32,415 --> 00:03:35,915
including the breakout hit, "Don't Speak."
50
00:04:12,271 --> 00:04:14,765
"Don't Speak" was a landmark success
51
00:04:14,765 --> 00:04:19,765
leading to the Hot 100 Airplay
Year-End Chart of 1997.
52
00:04:20,055 --> 00:04:22,074
Stefani left college for one semester
53
00:04:22,074 --> 00:04:23,865
to tour for "Tragic Kingdom,"
54
00:04:23,865 --> 00:04:28,865
but did not return when touring
lasted two-and-a-half years.
55
00:04:29,616 --> 00:04:31,887
The album was nominated for a Grammy,
56
00:04:31,887 --> 00:04:36,470
and sold more than 16 million
copies worldwide by 2004.
57
00:04:37,621 --> 00:04:38,805
I think for No Doubt,
58
00:04:38,805 --> 00:04:41,113
this is kinda like the in-between stage
59
00:04:41,113 --> 00:04:43,208
with the state of our record,
trying to be creative,
60
00:04:43,208 --> 00:04:45,564
and not really thinking
about all that stuff.
61
00:04:45,564 --> 00:04:47,727
This is kind of, since this in LA,
62
00:04:47,727 --> 00:04:49,194
it's a little bit of a distraction,
63
00:04:49,194 --> 00:04:51,388
like "Let's go, let's go,
'cause it's right here."
64
00:04:51,388 --> 00:04:53,285
But really, we're trying to work,
65
00:04:53,285 --> 00:04:54,717
trying to make a new record,
66
00:04:54,717 --> 00:04:58,200
and just feeling lucky
to be able to do it.
67
00:04:58,200 --> 00:04:59,681
Most of the lyrical content
68
00:04:59,681 --> 00:05:02,442
focused on Gwen's often rocky relationship
69
00:05:02,442 --> 00:05:05,692
with then Bush front man, Gavin Rossdale,
70
00:05:05,692 --> 00:05:09,488
and her insecurities, including
indecision on settling down,
71
00:05:09,488 --> 00:05:11,071
and having a child.
72
00:05:11,942 --> 00:05:13,426
- How are you guys?
- Good, good to see ya.
73
00:05:13,426 --> 00:05:15,434
Are you
guys really engaged?
74
00:05:15,434 --> 00:05:17,039
- We really are.
- You are really?
75
00:05:17,039 --> 00:05:18,575
He really wants to marry me.
76
00:05:18,575 --> 00:05:20,479
Oh, congratulations,
I'm so excited for you,
77
00:05:20,479 --> 00:05:23,469
have you guys set a date?
Yep.
78
00:05:23,469 --> 00:05:25,335
We're just, we're right around the corner.
79
00:05:25,335 --> 00:05:26,644
- Are you-
- Any minute now, Any minute-
80
00:05:26,644 --> 00:05:27,477
- Any minute?
- It's gonna be officiaL.
81
00:05:27,477 --> 00:05:28,371
Yeah, we're gonna be late,
82
00:05:28,371 --> 00:05:30,874
if we don't go now, we're
gonna be fucking late.
83
00:05:30,874 --> 00:05:33,797
Where
did the two of you meet?
84
00:05:33,797 --> 00:05:37,237
We met here in LA at
the Acoustic Christmas
85
00:05:37,237 --> 00:05:40,426
that KROQ does every year,
and I was the opening act,
86
00:05:40,426 --> 00:05:43,258
15 minutes, we got to play,
and he was the headliner.
87
00:05:43,258 --> 00:05:44,405
Are you kidding,
or are you guys kidding?
88
00:05:44,405 --> 00:05:46,235
We met backstage under
fluorescent lights,
89
00:05:46,235 --> 00:05:50,045
and never stopped looking
at each other since.
90
00:05:52,506 --> 00:05:55,548
No Doubt's
2001 album, "Rock Steady,"
91
00:05:55,548 --> 00:05:58,071
explored more reggae and dance hall sounds
92
00:05:58,071 --> 00:06:02,154
while maintaining the
band's new wave influences.
93
00:06:03,327 --> 00:06:04,674
- Okay.
- "Rock Steady" .
94
00:06:04,674 --> 00:06:07,821
Watch out, December 18th,
the record is coming out,
95
00:06:07,821 --> 00:06:09,381
no doubt, can you believe it?
Very cool.
96
00:06:09,381 --> 00:06:11,816
In one year, we did it,
we wrote it, we recorded it,
97
00:06:11,816 --> 00:06:13,928
and it's actually gonna come
out, it's like a miracle,
98
00:06:13,928 --> 00:06:15,256
- It's a miracle.
- Is that really,
99
00:06:15,256 --> 00:06:16,740
how long does it usually take one?
100
00:06:16,740 --> 00:06:19,821
It's taken, you know, up to
three years to do a record,
101
00:06:19,821 --> 00:06:21,471
last record, took about two years,
102
00:06:21,471 --> 00:06:22,976
so we're at like one year.
103
00:06:22,976 --> 00:06:24,491
It's gonna come out
December 18th, and I think,
104
00:06:24,491 --> 00:06:25,813
I don't know when the single's coming out,
105
00:06:25,813 --> 00:06:27,173
probably some time in October,
106
00:06:27,173 --> 00:06:30,013
but we're going over to
England to mix the record,
107
00:06:30,013 --> 00:06:31,810
and it's just really exciting
108
00:06:31,810 --> 00:06:33,416
because doing the whole thing with Eve
109
00:06:33,416 --> 00:06:35,089
has been like a real tease for me,
110
00:06:35,089 --> 00:06:36,734
because it's been fun, you know,
111
00:06:36,734 --> 00:06:38,744
to watch and see it on TV and stuff,
112
00:06:38,744 --> 00:06:41,082
but when it's like our record coming out,
113
00:06:41,082 --> 00:06:42,165
I can't explain it.
114
00:06:42,165 --> 00:06:44,690
When I found out it was
coming out, my heart dropped.
115
00:06:44,690 --> 00:06:46,013
I was so excited, and nervous,
116
00:06:46,013 --> 00:06:48,208
and I can't wait to share with people.
117
00:06:48,208 --> 00:06:50,148
You still get that?
118
00:06:50,148 --> 00:06:51,638
I'm really nervous right now,
119
00:06:51,638 --> 00:06:53,499
because I'm talking about it finally.
120
00:06:53,499 --> 00:06:55,219
It's just like, it's a
big deal for us, you know,
121
00:06:55,219 --> 00:06:57,657
and this record for us
has been so much fun,
122
00:06:57,657 --> 00:06:59,606
and it's a really
lighthearted easy record,
123
00:06:59,606 --> 00:07:01,093
it's called "Rock Steady."
124
00:07:01,093 --> 00:07:02,524
We worked with amazing people,
125
00:07:02,524 --> 00:07:05,921
we worked with Dr. Dre, we're
working with William Orbit,
126
00:07:05,921 --> 00:07:08,855
Nellee Hooper, we worked in Jamaica
127
00:07:08,855 --> 00:07:11,039
for a couple of weeks recording,
128
00:07:11,039 --> 00:07:12,370
so it's just been like a lot of fun.
129
00:07:12,370 --> 00:07:14,319
I just can't wait for people to hear it.
130
00:07:14,319 --> 00:07:16,461
- The album
generated career- highest
131
00:07:16,461 --> 00:07:19,152
singles chart positions
in the United States,
132
00:07:19,152 --> 00:07:21,389
and "Hey Baby" And "Underneath It All"
133
00:07:21,389 --> 00:07:23,464
received Grammy awards.
134
00:07:58,596 --> 00:08:01,425
in 2002, Gwen won a Grammy award
135
00:08:01,425 --> 00:08:05,526
alongside rapper Eve for
Best Rap Song Collaboration
136
00:08:05,526 --> 00:08:08,662
for their song, "Let Me Blow Your Mind."
137
00:08:37,428 --> 00:08:42,359
Gwen Stefani's debut solo album,
"Love. Angel. Music. Baby."
138
00:08:42,359 --> 00:08:45,882
was released on November 12th, 2004.
139
00:08:45,882 --> 00:08:48,307
The album features several collaborations
140
00:08:48,307 --> 00:08:50,964
with producers, and other artists.
141
00:08:50,964 --> 00:08:53,516
Gwen created the album
to modernize the music
142
00:08:53,516 --> 00:08:55,789
to which she listened when in high school,
143
00:08:55,789 --> 00:08:58,726
and "Love. Angel. Music. Baby."
144
00:08:58,726 --> 00:09:00,766
takes influence from a
variety of music styles
145
00:09:00,766 --> 00:09:03,710
of the 1980s and early 1990s,
146
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:07,099
such as new wave, synth pop, and electro.
147
00:09:09,811 --> 00:09:11,825
Gwen's decision to use her solo career
148
00:09:11,825 --> 00:09:14,947
as an opportunity to delve
further into pop music,
149
00:09:14,947 --> 00:09:17,779
instead of trying to convince
the world of her talent,
150
00:09:17,779 --> 00:09:21,990
depth and artistic worth
was considered unusual.
151
00:09:21,990 --> 00:09:25,641
The album debuted on the US
Billboard 200 Albums Chart
152
00:09:25,641 --> 00:09:30,474
at number seven, selling 309,000
copies in its first week.
153
00:09:31,331 --> 00:09:33,496
The album reached multi-platinum status
154
00:09:33,496 --> 00:09:36,150
in the United States, the United Kingdom,
155
00:09:36,150 --> 00:09:38,363
Australia, and Canada.
156
00:09:38,363 --> 00:09:40,819
Gwen's album
is now six times platinum
157
00:09:40,819 --> 00:09:45,819
worldwide, and still counting.
158
00:09:48,376 --> 00:09:49,209
Wow.
159
00:09:50,422 --> 00:09:52,930
I'm not sure I think I'm
more excited than she is.
160
00:09:52,930 --> 00:09:55,763
I'm excited, I can't believe it.
161
00:09:59,346 --> 00:10:00,871
I need to talk to our
team, but okay .
162
00:10:00,871 --> 00:10:02,538
Okay, no pressure.
163
00:10:03,479 --> 00:10:05,652
- No pressure.
- We're missing Jimmy.
164
00:10:05,652 --> 00:10:07,746
- Yes, Jimmy get in here.
- thank you guys for coming,
165
00:10:07,746 --> 00:10:09,209
they're starting to leave.
166
00:10:09,209 --> 00:10:10,808
The first single from the album
167
00:10:10,808 --> 00:10:12,535
was "What You Waiting For?"
168
00:10:12,535 --> 00:10:15,286
which debuted a top
the ARIA Singles Chart,
169
00:10:15,286 --> 00:10:19,997
charted at number 47 on
the US Billboard Hot 100,
170
00:10:19,997 --> 00:10:23,304
reaching the top 10 on most other charts.
171
00:10:23,304 --> 00:10:27,034
The song serves to explain
why Gwen produced a solo album
172
00:10:27,034 --> 00:10:29,404
and discuss her fears in leaving No Doubt
173
00:10:29,404 --> 00:10:33,693
for a solo career, as well
as her desire to have a baby.
174
00:11:04,758 --> 00:11:08,491
"Rich Girl" was released as
the album's second single,
175
00:11:08,491 --> 00:11:12,294
I duet with rapper Eve,
and produced by Dr. Dre.
176
00:11:12,294 --> 00:11:16,795
It is an adaptation of a 1990s
pop song by British musicians
177
00:11:16,795 --> 00:11:19,545
and reached the US and UK top 10.
178
00:11:20,449 --> 00:11:23,498
The album's third
single, "Hollaback Girl",
179
00:11:23,498 --> 00:11:25,886
became Gwen Stefani's first US,
180
00:11:25,886 --> 00:11:28,763
and second Australian number one single.
181
00:11:28,763 --> 00:11:31,096
It reached top 10 elsewhere.
182
00:12:04,715 --> 00:12:06,827
The song was the first US music download
183
00:12:06,827 --> 00:12:09,165
to sell more than 1 million copies,
184
00:12:09,165 --> 00:12:10,988
and it's brass driven composition
185
00:12:10,988 --> 00:12:13,624
has upheld its popularity to this day.
186
00:12:17,341 --> 00:12:20,416
Gwen Stefani's second solo
album, "This Sweet Escape,"
187
00:12:20,416 --> 00:12:24,072
was released on December first, 2006.
188
00:12:24,072 --> 00:12:26,655
The album focuses more
heavily on electronic
189
00:12:26,655 --> 00:12:30,572
and dance music for clubs
than its predecessor.
190
00:12:31,805 --> 00:12:33,619
The act between having a baby,
191
00:12:33,619 --> 00:12:35,848
and now launching your second solo album.
192
00:12:35,848 --> 00:12:37,174
Well, what so far so good,
193
00:12:37,174 --> 00:12:39,286
because he just gets to
go with me everywhere,
194
00:12:39,286 --> 00:12:41,892
and he's such a cool guy,
195
00:12:41,892 --> 00:12:43,782
and he just is so chilled out,
196
00:12:43,782 --> 00:12:47,296
and enjoy like when it's just me and him,
197
00:12:47,296 --> 00:12:49,244
he's like what's going
on, because he's so used
198
00:12:49,244 --> 00:12:51,077
to having so many people around, you know,
199
00:12:51,077 --> 00:12:54,404
and he's used to noise and we've
been taking him everywhere.
200
00:12:54,404 --> 00:12:58,602
So it just hasn't really
been that challenging.
201
00:12:58,602 --> 00:13:02,583
I mean the sleep thing is definitely hard
202
00:13:02,583 --> 00:13:05,640
when you don't get to sleep,
and I'm like a sleepaholic,
203
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,944
like I love sleeping.
Oh, me too, me too,
204
00:13:07,944 --> 00:13:09,656
I could sleep for days on end frankly.
205
00:13:09,656 --> 00:13:11,432
I'm like I'd be so happy on the tour
206
00:13:11,432 --> 00:13:14,117
when they're like, "Oh,
12 hour drive, yay!"
207
00:13:14,117 --> 00:13:16,123
- You know?
- Straight to bed.
208
00:13:16,123 --> 00:13:18,950
Exactly.
209
00:13:18,950 --> 00:13:21,283
Its released
coincided with the DVD release
210
00:13:21,283 --> 00:13:26,283
of Stephanie's first tour,
entitled "Harajuku Lovers Live."
211
00:13:26,365 --> 00:13:29,697
"Wind It Up," the album's
lead single used yodeling
212
00:13:29,697 --> 00:13:32,379
and an interpretation
of "The Sound of Music,"
213
00:13:32,379 --> 00:13:36,212
and peaked in the top
10 in the US and the UK.
214
00:13:37,865 --> 00:13:39,089
Obviously people are gonna
start talking about it,
215
00:13:39,089 --> 00:13:41,028
because of the sample that it uses.
216
00:13:41,028 --> 00:13:41,986
Which is so crazy,
217
00:13:41,986 --> 00:13:44,641
'cause you guys have some
kind of a show over here
218
00:13:44,641 --> 00:13:45,913
for "The Sound of Music," right.
219
00:13:45,913 --> 00:13:47,070
That's
right, opening in London, so.
220
00:13:47,070 --> 00:13:48,943
Which is weird timing because this,
221
00:13:48,943 --> 00:13:51,863
I wrote this record about
a year-and-a-half ago
222
00:13:51,863 --> 00:13:55,529
with Pharrell, I went down
to Miami just like by chance,
223
00:13:55,529 --> 00:13:57,388
and we did like five songs together,
224
00:13:57,388 --> 00:14:00,890
and this was one of them, and
I ended up doing a mashup.
225
00:14:00,890 --> 00:14:03,412
My whole like fantasy was to
do like put "Sound of Music"
226
00:14:03,412 --> 00:14:04,733
to a beat, you know?
227
00:14:04,733 --> 00:14:06,435
\Cause I love "The Sound of
Music," and I just was like,
228
00:14:06,435 --> 00:14:07,903
that would be wicked, you know,
229
00:14:07,903 --> 00:14:09,516
You took the song with
the yodel in it of course.
230
00:14:09,516 --> 00:14:11,320
- Yeah.
- Can you yodel very well?
231
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,597
I think, you know what I sorta can.
232
00:14:13,597 --> 00:14:15,640
It's weird, I'm not like the most,
233
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,030
like singing is sort of
like part of what I do,
234
00:14:18,030 --> 00:14:20,232
it's not really, I'm not
like a singer or whatever,
235
00:14:20,232 --> 00:14:25,232
but I like I can Yodel a
little bit, I don't know why.
236
00:14:25,420 --> 00:14:27,654
the single
track, "The Sweet Escape,"
237
00:14:27,654 --> 00:14:29,279
was another popular hit,
238
00:14:29,279 --> 00:14:31,504
and earned her a Grammy Award nomination
239
00:14:31,504 --> 00:14:35,273
for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals.
240
00:15:06,300 --> 00:15:09,540
To promote the album, Gwen
embarked on a worldwide tour,
241
00:15:09,540 --> 00:15:13,072
the Sweet Escape Tour, which
covered North America, Europe,
242
00:15:13,072 --> 00:15:17,113
Asia, and the Pacific and
part of Latin America.
243
00:15:17,113 --> 00:15:19,292
With Gwen promoting "The Sweet Escape,"
244
00:15:19,292 --> 00:15:22,113
No Doubt began work on
a new album without her,
245
00:15:22,113 --> 00:15:25,596
and a plan to complete it
after her tour was finished.
246
00:15:25,596 --> 00:15:27,156
In March, 2008,
247
00:15:27,156 --> 00:15:28,697
the band started making posts
248
00:15:28,697 --> 00:15:30,707
concerning the progression of the album
249
00:15:30,707 --> 00:15:33,456
on their official fan forum.
250
00:15:33,456 --> 00:15:34,740
Going back in the studio with No Doubt,
251
00:15:34,740 --> 00:15:36,150
we'd been in the studio all year,
252
00:15:36,150 --> 00:15:37,390
trying to write a new record,
253
00:15:37,390 --> 00:15:39,196
and we have a lot of songs, and it's been,
254
00:15:39,196 --> 00:15:42,506
I think, it's my favorite
time being in the studio,
255
00:15:42,506 --> 00:15:44,740
it's just about like
really enjoying the moment,
256
00:15:44,740 --> 00:15:46,628
and I can't wait for it to come out,
257
00:15:46,628 --> 00:15:49,111
but I'm still kind of
enjoying the process.
258
00:15:49,111 --> 00:15:51,237
We still have a lot of
work to do on the record,
259
00:15:51,237 --> 00:15:52,674
but so next year, hopefully,
260
00:15:52,674 --> 00:15:55,735
we'll have a new record,
and that's the future,
261
00:15:55,735 --> 00:15:57,735
just No Doubt right now.
262
00:15:59,416 --> 00:16:02,192
Gwen made a
post on March 28th, 2008,
263
00:16:02,192 --> 00:16:04,195
stating that songwriting had commenced,
264
00:16:04,195 --> 00:16:05,493
but was slow on her end,
265
00:16:05,493 --> 00:16:10,138
because she was pregnant
with her second child.
266
00:16:10,138 --> 00:16:14,939
No Doubt headlined the Bamboozle
2009 Festival in May, 2009,
267
00:16:14,939 --> 00:16:16,963
along with Fall Out Boy,
268
00:16:16,963 --> 00:16:20,880
the band completed a
national tour in mid-2009.
269
00:16:50,900 --> 00:16:52,736
Come on, ooh, ooh!
270
00:16:52,736 --> 00:16:54,236
Come on, ooh, ooh!
271
00:16:55,610 --> 00:16:56,970
Ooh, ooh!
272
00:17:25,906 --> 00:17:27,310
Well, it's real exciting,
273
00:17:27,310 --> 00:17:28,548
because we kind of did it on a whim.
274
00:17:28,548 --> 00:17:31,251
We were basically in the studio,
trying to write new music,
275
00:17:31,251 --> 00:17:34,710
and I had just had my
baby, and I was like,
276
00:17:34,710 --> 00:17:37,164
"Ah, let's get out of this
room, let's go on tour,
277
00:17:37,164 --> 00:17:38,988
let's get motivated, and inspired!"
278
00:17:38,988 --> 00:17:40,661
And I think just getting out there,
279
00:17:40,661 --> 00:17:44,820
and being on stage together
is what we kind of do best,
280
00:17:44,820 --> 00:17:46,721
and putting the whole tour together
281
00:17:46,721 --> 00:17:49,267
has been really motivating and inspiring,
282
00:17:49,267 --> 00:17:52,230
so it feels incredible
to answer the question,
283
00:17:52,230 --> 00:17:54,716
actually it feels really, really good.
284
00:18:24,838 --> 00:18:26,492
the new
album, "Push and Shove,"
285
00:18:26,492 --> 00:18:28,803
was released on September 25th,
286
00:18:28,803 --> 00:18:33,803
proceeded by the first single,
"Settle Down" on July 16th.
287
00:18:34,132 --> 00:18:38,022
"Settle Down" peaked at 34
on the Billboard Hot 100
288
00:18:38,022 --> 00:18:39,822
with the album peaking at number three
289
00:18:39,822 --> 00:18:41,822
on the US Billboard 200.
290
00:19:23,179 --> 00:19:24,596
Come on!
291
00:19:46,183 --> 00:19:47,706
Similarly to Gwyn,
292
00:19:47,706 --> 00:19:52,130
Blake's early career skyrocketed
him to the height of fame.
293
00:20:08,065 --> 00:20:11,596
Born in 1976 to parents,
Dorothy and Richard,
294
00:20:11,596 --> 00:20:14,444
Blake Shelton lived a
quiet and simple childhood
295
00:20:14,444 --> 00:20:17,775
in Ada, Oklahoma, something
he would reflect upon
296
00:20:17,775 --> 00:20:21,241
in his music throughout his career.
297
00:20:21,241 --> 00:20:24,276
Blake was surrounded by the
guitar riffs and emotive lyrics
298
00:20:24,276 --> 00:20:27,593
of country music, which heavily
influenced his musical taste
299
00:20:27,593 --> 00:20:29,093
from an early age.
300
00:20:34,996 --> 00:20:39,098
By 17, Blake had graduated
from high school in Oklahoma,
301
00:20:39,098 --> 00:20:41,735
and two weeks after leaving,
took a leap of faith,
302
00:20:41,735 --> 00:20:46,652
and moved to Nashville, Tennessee,
to pursue a music career.
303
00:20:46,652 --> 00:20:49,255
It wasn't long before Blake's gamble move
304
00:20:49,255 --> 00:20:51,927
to Nashville paid off as his honest voice
305
00:20:51,927 --> 00:20:55,060
captured the attention of record labels.
306
00:21:04,020 --> 00:21:07,174
In 2001, Blake released
his first ever single
307
00:21:07,174 --> 00:21:08,745
titled "Austin."
308
00:21:08,745 --> 00:21:11,169
The song is a classic story of love,
309
00:21:11,169 --> 00:21:13,086
heartbreak, and regret.
310
00:21:47,976 --> 00:21:49,794
"Austin" was a massive success,
311
00:21:49,794 --> 00:21:51,637
becoming his first number one hit
312
00:21:51,637 --> 00:21:53,749
on the Billboard Hot Country Singles,
313
00:21:53,749 --> 00:21:56,900
and instantly boosted his
self-titled first album,
314
00:21:56,900 --> 00:22:01,385
which featured the popular
song, "All Over Me."
315
00:22:01,385 --> 00:22:03,387
The album received positive reviews,
316
00:22:03,387 --> 00:22:04,937
and people were excited to see
317
00:22:04,937 --> 00:22:08,101
what Blake would release next.
318
00:22:08,101 --> 00:22:10,981
Two years later in February, 2003,
319
00:22:10,981 --> 00:22:14,898
Blake released his second
album, "The Dreamer."
320
00:22:15,789 --> 00:22:18,668
The lead single for the
album was "The Baby,"
321
00:22:18,668 --> 00:22:20,627
a soulful track that showed Blake
322
00:22:20,627 --> 00:22:22,574
in a more reflective state.
323
00:22:22,574 --> 00:22:24,851
It reached number one
on the country charts,
324
00:22:24,851 --> 00:22:27,853
holding that position for three weeks.
325
00:22:27,853 --> 00:22:29,480
"Blake Shelton's 'Barn and Grill"
326
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:34,136
was the title of his third
studio album released in 2004.
327
00:22:34,136 --> 00:22:36,872
It's lead off single, "When
Somebody Knows You That Well"
328
00:22:36,872 --> 00:22:39,742
peaked at number 37 on the country charts
329
00:22:39,742 --> 00:22:42,317
while the follow-up track "Some Beach"
330
00:22:42,317 --> 00:22:43,832
became his third number one hit,
331
00:22:43,832 --> 00:22:46,832
holding the position for four weeks.
332
00:22:47,933 --> 00:22:49,653
Blake released his fourth studio album,
333
00:22:49,653 --> 00:22:51,736
titled "Pure BS" in 2007.
334
00:22:55,066 --> 00:22:57,133
"Pure BS" was a massive success,
335
00:22:57,133 --> 00:22:59,959
becoming his highest
chart-topping album so far,
336
00:22:59,959 --> 00:23:03,669
reaching number eight on
the US Billboard 200 chart,
337
00:23:03,669 --> 00:23:07,293
and number two on the
billboard top country albums.
338
00:23:07,293 --> 00:23:10,546
"Startin' Fires" was Blake
Shelton's fifth studio album,
339
00:23:10,546 --> 00:23:11,963
released in 2009.
340
00:23:12,913 --> 00:23:15,323
This album kept the
Blake Shelton sound alive
341
00:23:15,323 --> 00:23:18,256
with soulful country songs
as well as fun, upbeat,
342
00:23:18,256 --> 00:23:20,173
and fast-paced anthems.
343
00:23:24,944 --> 00:23:27,823
The album's lead single,
titled "She Wouldn't Be Gone,"
344
00:23:27,823 --> 00:23:29,428
showed an aching Blake lamenting
345
00:23:29,428 --> 00:23:32,027
on past failed relationships.
346
00:23:32,027 --> 00:23:35,259
By 2011, Blake was touring
around the country,
347
00:23:35,259 --> 00:23:38,531
and had even collaborated
with Michael Buble.
348
00:23:38,531 --> 00:23:40,288
It was safe to say that Blake Shelton
349
00:23:40,288 --> 00:23:43,455
had become a household name in the US.
350
00:24:12,345 --> 00:24:14,773
Blake Shelton released
the album "Red River Blue"
351
00:24:14,773 --> 00:24:18,922
on July 12th, 2011, led by
the single, "Honey Bee."
352
00:24:44,692 --> 00:24:48,892
The song received 138,000
downloads in its first week,
353
00:24:48,892 --> 00:24:51,052
and was certified gold
in its seventh week,
354
00:24:51,052 --> 00:24:53,860
setting a record for the
fastest gold certification
355
00:24:53,860 --> 00:24:55,943
by a male country singer.
356
00:24:57,020 --> 00:25:00,854
On June 13th, 2011, in
its 10th chart week,
357
00:25:00,854 --> 00:25:02,410
"Honey Bee" went to number one
358
00:25:02,410 --> 00:25:04,601
on the Hot Country Songs chart,
359
00:25:04,601 --> 00:25:08,825
becoming his ninth number
one, and his fastest climbing.
360
00:25:08,825 --> 00:25:10,898
The album was expected
to debut at number one
361
00:25:10,898 --> 00:25:15,315
on the Billboard 200 with
around 110,000 copies sold.
362
00:25:16,417 --> 00:25:19,308
"God Gave Me You," a cover
of a Dave Barnes song,
363
00:25:19,308 --> 00:25:21,148
was the album's second single,
364
00:25:21,148 --> 00:25:23,089
it also reached number one.
365
00:25:24,789 --> 00:25:27,099
"Drink on it," the
fifth song on the album,
366
00:25:27,099 --> 00:25:29,965
hit number one in April, 2012,
367
00:25:29,965 --> 00:25:33,462
giving him his 11th number one song.
368
00:25:33,462 --> 00:25:35,195
In April, 2011,
369
00:25:35,195 --> 00:25:38,246
Blake became a coach on the
first series of the US "Voice,"
370
00:25:38,246 --> 00:25:43,081
alongside CeeLo Green, Christina
Aguilera, and Adam Levine.
371
00:25:43,081 --> 00:25:45,153
Success didn't stop there for him.
372
00:25:45,153 --> 00:25:49,361
At the 54th Grammys, Blake
was nominated for two awards,
373
00:25:49,361 --> 00:25:51,940
one for Best Country Album
for "Red River Blue,"
374
00:25:51,940 --> 00:25:54,372
and one for Best Country Solo Performance
375
00:25:54,372 --> 00:25:57,220
for the song, "Honey Bee."
376
00:25:57,220 --> 00:25:59,365
This is a big deal, you
know I've been doing this for,
377
00:25:59,365 --> 00:26:01,145
man, I don't, since 2001,
378
00:26:01,145 --> 00:26:03,636
I think I've made eight albums,
379
00:26:03,636 --> 00:26:05,899
and I've never been nominated for Grammys,
380
00:26:05,899 --> 00:26:08,502
and stuff like that, so I'm proud of it.
381
00:26:08,502 --> 00:26:10,009
I'm pumped about tonight.
382
00:26:10,009 --> 00:26:11,566
So after
eight years of making music,
383
00:26:11,566 --> 00:26:13,446
does it mean more to have
it finally recognized
384
00:26:13,446 --> 00:26:14,529
here tonight?
385
00:26:16,724 --> 00:26:19,614
I don't know, man, you look
back at that things, and you,
386
00:26:19,614 --> 00:26:22,321
I don't think I'll know what
the most important thing
387
00:26:22,321 --> 00:26:24,721
that happened for me
career-wise along the way was
388
00:26:24,721 --> 00:26:27,879
until this is all over, but
I'd definitely want a Grammy,
389
00:26:27,879 --> 00:26:30,278
and I'd like to have one,
390
00:26:30,278 --> 00:26:33,305
freaking Taylor already beat
me on two of 'em tonight,
391
00:26:33,305 --> 00:26:35,627
so I have one chance left,
so I got my fingers crossed,
392
00:26:35,627 --> 00:26:38,168
let's see what happens.
393
00:26:38,168 --> 00:26:40,191
Unfortunately, Blake didn't win the Grammy
394
00:26:40,191 --> 00:26:41,796
for either category,
395
00:26:41,796 --> 00:26:44,207
however it was clear to see that his music
396
00:26:44,207 --> 00:26:48,529
was getting the attention
of fans and critics alike.
397
00:26:48,529 --> 00:26:51,772
On April third, 2012,
Blake performed "Over"
398
00:26:51,772 --> 00:26:55,111
on the semifinals of the
second season of "The Voice."
399
00:26:55,111 --> 00:26:58,148
"Over" became Blake's seventh
consecutive number one,
400
00:26:58,148 --> 00:27:01,148
and his 12th number one hit to date.
401
00:27:01,985 --> 00:27:03,990
After a while, focusing on "The Voice,"
402
00:27:03,990 --> 00:27:07,068
and his married life, Blake
went back into the studio
403
00:27:07,068 --> 00:27:09,246
to record his next studio album,
404
00:27:09,246 --> 00:27:11,880
titled "Based on a True Story."
405
00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:15,242
The album debuted at number
three on the Billboard 200,
406
00:27:15,242 --> 00:27:20,023
and became the ninth
best-selling album of 2013.
407
00:27:20,023 --> 00:27:21,973
Blake didn't take long
for follow up the success
408
00:27:21,973 --> 00:27:25,176
of this album and went
straight back into the studio
409
00:27:25,176 --> 00:27:27,007
to release his ninth studio album,
410
00:27:27,007 --> 00:27:30,349
titled "Bringing Back The Sunshine."
411
00:27:30,349 --> 00:27:33,037
The lead single, "Neon Light," was upbeat,
412
00:27:33,037 --> 00:27:35,431
displaying Blake's stage
presence and production value
413
00:27:35,431 --> 00:27:38,243
that he now had during his live shows.
414
00:28:13,522 --> 00:28:17,477
In 2005, a year after
his third studio album,
415
00:28:17,477 --> 00:28:20,739
Blake Shelton's love life hit the news.
416
00:28:20,739 --> 00:28:23,007
Blake and his first wife, Kaynette Gern,
417
00:28:23,007 --> 00:28:27,674
were getting divorced after
a three-year marriage.
418
00:28:27,674 --> 00:28:31,443
Not long after the divorce
was finalized in 2006,
419
00:28:31,443 --> 00:28:34,695
Blake started dating the
up-and-coming country superstar,
420
00:28:34,695 --> 00:28:39,028
Miranda Lambert.
421
00:28:41,031 --> 00:28:43,106
Their relationship
quickly hit the headlines,
422
00:28:43,106 --> 00:28:46,805
and they became a popular
country music couple.
423
00:28:46,805 --> 00:28:50,725
On May ninth, 2010 after
dating for four years,
424
00:28:50,725 --> 00:28:52,375
Blake proposed after seeking
425
00:28:52,375 --> 00:28:55,871
and receiving her father's blessing.
426
00:28:55,871 --> 00:28:58,966
The pair were married on May 14th, 2011
427
00:28:58,966 --> 00:29:00,717
at the Don Strange Ranch ranch
428
00:29:00,717 --> 00:29:03,760
in the bride's home state of Texas.
429
00:29:03,760 --> 00:29:05,522
After the wedding, Blake took a break
430
00:29:05,522 --> 00:29:06,845
from his work commitments
431
00:29:06,845 --> 00:29:10,507
to spend the rest of the
month with his new bride.
432
00:29:10,507 --> 00:29:12,963
While Miranda Lambert and
Blake Shelton made their home
433
00:29:12,963 --> 00:29:14,590
in rural Oklahoma,
434
00:29:14,590 --> 00:29:18,629
Blake's work commitments meant
he wasn't at home very much.
435
00:29:18,629 --> 00:29:21,419
Not only was he a judge on
the wildly popular show,
436
00:29:21,419 --> 00:29:23,546
"The Voice," but he also went on tour
437
00:29:23,546 --> 00:29:25,539
promoting his own music.
438
00:29:25,539 --> 00:29:28,785
Miranda also had obligations
as a successful musician
439
00:29:28,785 --> 00:29:30,669
in her own right.
440
00:29:30,669 --> 00:29:32,827
However, the couple insisted in interviews
441
00:29:32,827 --> 00:29:36,515
that they always made time for each other.
442
00:29:36,515 --> 00:29:38,651
However, cracks began to show
443
00:29:38,651 --> 00:29:41,651
when Miranda reportedly
felt abandoned by Blake
444
00:29:41,651 --> 00:29:43,821
having fixed commitments in Los Angeles,
445
00:29:43,821 --> 00:29:45,768
filming for "The Voice,"
446
00:29:45,768 --> 00:29:48,336
the pressures of fame and
distance took a real toll
447
00:29:48,336 --> 00:29:49,836
on their marriage.
448
00:29:50,744 --> 00:29:53,101
By the time 2015 rolled around,
449
00:29:53,101 --> 00:29:55,298
Miranda Lambert and
Blake Shelton's marriage
450
00:29:55,298 --> 00:29:57,272
was on its last legs.
451
00:29:57,272 --> 00:29:58,469
By the middle of the year,
452
00:29:58,469 --> 00:30:00,448
they were officially on the rocks,
453
00:30:00,448 --> 00:30:03,400
and Blake proceeded to
file divorce papers,
454
00:30:05,491 --> 00:30:07,947
Blake and Miranda's
split came as a surprise
455
00:30:07,947 --> 00:30:09,317
to most in country music.
456
00:30:09,317 --> 00:30:11,722
The two seemed to be an
incredibly stable relationship.
457
00:30:11,722 --> 00:30:14,018
They seemed to always have
a ton of fun together.
458
00:30:14,018 --> 00:30:15,626
You always saw them up on stage,
459
00:30:15,626 --> 00:30:18,138
either collaborating
or thanking one another
460
00:30:18,138 --> 00:30:19,988
for being their support system.
461
00:30:19,988 --> 00:30:22,780
So it really came as a bit of a surprise.
462
00:30:22,780 --> 00:30:24,602
There had been rumors in the past
463
00:30:24,602 --> 00:30:27,113
that the two might have
had some infidelities,
464
00:30:27,113 --> 00:30:29,600
but they always seem to work through it.
465
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,183
When the two split,
466
00:30:31,183 --> 00:30:32,799
it seemed to be a very tough time
467
00:30:32,799 --> 00:30:35,152
for Shelton and for Lambert.
468
00:30:38,229 --> 00:30:40,121
"We were real
people with real lives
469
00:30:40,121 --> 00:30:42,313
with real families,
friends and colleagues."
470
00:30:42,313 --> 00:30:45,371
The couple said in a
statement obtained by E News.
471
00:30:45,371 --> 00:30:48,306
"Therefore we kindly asked
for privacy and compassion
472
00:30:48,306 --> 00:30:51,473
concerning this very personal matter."
473
00:30:53,207 --> 00:30:56,228
However that didn't mean
there wasn't any acrimony
474
00:30:56,228 --> 00:30:58,849
as they both accused
the other of infidelity,
475
00:30:58,849 --> 00:31:02,229
although nothing was remotely proved.
476
00:31:02,229 --> 00:31:04,249
When Blake Shelton was
going through his divorce
477
00:31:04,249 --> 00:31:08,332
from Miranda Lambert, he
was utterly heartbroken.
478
00:31:09,556 --> 00:31:11,716
He found a friend in Gwen Stefani,
479
00:31:11,716 --> 00:31:15,143
who was also going through her
own highly publicized divorce
480
00:31:15,143 --> 00:31:19,628
from husband, Gavin Rossdale,
after several years.
481
00:31:19,628 --> 00:31:22,844
Gwen Stefani met Gavin
Rossdale, lead singer of Bush,
482
00:31:22,844 --> 00:31:26,436
backstage in 1995 when No
Doubt performed a concert
483
00:31:26,436 --> 00:31:31,052
for a radio station while
Bush were the main headliners,
484
00:31:31,052 --> 00:31:34,065
they married on September 14th, 2002
485
00:31:34,065 --> 00:31:37,204
with a wedding in St. Paul's, London.
486
00:31:37,204 --> 00:31:41,370
A second wedding was held in
Los Angeles two weeks later,
487
00:31:41,370 --> 00:31:43,583
the pair went on to have
three children together,
488
00:31:43,583 --> 00:31:46,097
and enjoyed over 10 years of married life
489
00:31:46,097 --> 00:31:50,066
before things took a turn for the worst.
490
00:31:54,068 --> 00:31:55,820
in August, 2015,
491
00:31:55,820 --> 00:31:58,736
Gwen Stefani filed for
divorce from her husband,
492
00:31:58,736 --> 00:31:59,903
Gavin Rossdale
493
00:32:02,639 --> 00:32:05,012
Gwen has described the
breakdown of her marriage
494
00:32:05,012 --> 00:32:06,351
as eight months of hell
495
00:32:06,351 --> 00:32:09,452
as Gavin Rossdale was unfaithful to her.
496
00:32:12,191 --> 00:32:14,743
She tortured herself trying
to figure out the secret
497
00:32:14,743 --> 00:32:16,030
he was keeping from her,
498
00:32:16,030 --> 00:32:19,447
an affair happening in their family home.
499
00:32:23,146 --> 00:32:25,223
Known as one of the most glamorous couples
500
00:32:25,223 --> 00:32:27,344
in the music industry, fans of the pair
501
00:32:27,344 --> 00:32:29,870
thought that they were
going to last forever,
502
00:32:29,870 --> 00:32:33,497
appearing so in love
in their younger years,
503
00:32:37,545 --> 00:32:40,142
Yeah, sometimes, but
you know it's working out,
504
00:32:40,142 --> 00:32:41,528
it's working out good.
505
00:32:41,528 --> 00:32:43,800
And so she'll
just be watching tonight, or?
506
00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:48,069
She's here, she's
inside, she'll be watching.
507
00:32:48,069 --> 00:32:50,470
I don't have, there's
no tricks, but you know,
508
00:32:50,470 --> 00:32:53,366
we, our love is alive, what can I say?
509
00:32:53,366 --> 00:32:55,516
It just happens, it just happens.
510
00:32:58,108 --> 00:32:59,316
Is it
nice having your wife,
511
00:32:59,316 --> 00:33:00,854
who broke out in music,
512
00:33:00,854 --> 00:33:02,604
and now you're breaking
into the film business,
513
00:33:02,604 --> 00:33:04,273
the two of you doing it together?
514
00:33:04,273 --> 00:33:06,559
Yeah, absolutely, you know
it's good to have her here
515
00:33:06,559 --> 00:33:09,441
for support, we try and be here
for each other when we can,
516
00:33:09,441 --> 00:33:11,352
and sometimes, it's
difficult with schedules,
517
00:33:11,352 --> 00:33:15,546
and all that stuff, and so
we'll set our dates together
518
00:33:15,546 --> 00:33:18,919
as we should.
519
00:33:18,919 --> 00:33:20,441
However, just over a year
520
00:33:20,441 --> 00:33:22,952
after the birth of their third child,
521
00:33:22,952 --> 00:33:25,702
the marriage began to fall apart.
522
00:33:29,098 --> 00:33:31,268
They released a joint
statement, which read,
523
00:33:31,268 --> 00:33:33,856
"While the two of us have
come to the mutual decision
524
00:33:33,856 --> 00:33:36,341
that we will no longer
be partners in marriage.
525
00:33:36,341 --> 00:33:38,161
We've remained partners in parenthood,
526
00:33:38,161 --> 00:33:40,878
and are committed to jointly
raising our three sons
527
00:33:40,878 --> 00:33:43,795
in a happy and healthy environment.
528
00:33:44,917 --> 00:33:46,979
It was later revealed that Gavin Rossdale
529
00:33:46,979 --> 00:33:48,719
had been accused of having an affair
530
00:33:48,719 --> 00:33:51,200
with their nanny, Mindy Mann.
531
00:33:54,657 --> 00:33:56,897
US Weekly reported that
the affair had gone on
532
00:33:56,897 --> 00:33:59,679
for three years and
claimed Gwen had found out
533
00:33:59,679 --> 00:34:02,517
about the relationship
after discovering texts
534
00:34:02,517 --> 00:34:06,267
between the pair and
images of them together.
535
00:34:07,397 --> 00:34:10,319
Reportedly, Gavin Rossdale
initially dismissed the texts
536
00:34:10,319 --> 00:34:13,951
as just flirtation, but
then confessed to the affair
537
00:34:13,951 --> 00:34:17,868
several months later,
leading to their divorce.
538
00:34:21,058 --> 00:34:24,259
Gwen Stefani remained hurt
for a long time afterwards,
539
00:34:24,259 --> 00:34:28,695
even admitting that she has
the date, February ninth, 2015,
540
00:34:28,695 --> 00:34:31,591
ingrained in her mind as the
date she first discovered
541
00:34:31,591 --> 00:34:33,924
her world was falling apart.
542
00:34:36,301 --> 00:34:37,998
Despite finding it hard at first,
543
00:34:37,998 --> 00:34:40,317
the former couple now shared joint custody
544
00:34:40,317 --> 00:34:44,188
of their three sons,
Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo.
545
00:34:47,868 --> 00:34:50,388
Gavin Rossdale has gone
on to say in recent years
546
00:34:50,388 --> 00:34:52,796
that he is embarrassed by
how their marriage ended,
547
00:34:52,796 --> 00:34:55,805
and never wanted it to end in divorce.
548
00:35:15,208 --> 00:35:17,571
On April 29th, 2014,
549
00:35:17,571 --> 00:35:20,389
Gwen Stefani announced she
would be joining "The Voice"
550
00:35:20,389 --> 00:35:23,438
as a judge alongside Blake
Shelton, Adam Levine,
551
00:35:23,438 --> 00:35:25,240
and Pharrell Williams.
552
00:35:25,240 --> 00:35:27,643
This would be where Gwen
and Blake would meet,
553
00:35:27,643 --> 00:35:29,354
and form a great friendship,
554
00:35:29,354 --> 00:35:32,598
understanding the struggles
one another were going through.
555
00:35:32,598 --> 00:35:35,304
An image was shared for the
first public live taping
556
00:35:35,304 --> 00:35:36,335
of the series.
557
00:35:36,335 --> 00:35:41,122
The first photo of Gwen and
Blake together in any capacity.
558
00:35:41,122 --> 00:35:44,890
On September 18th, 2014,
Gwen and Blake appeared
559
00:35:44,890 --> 00:35:46,794
on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon"
560
00:35:46,794 --> 00:35:49,594
to promote the new season of "The Voice."
561
00:35:49,594 --> 00:35:52,008
The pair also sang a
duet of "Endless Love,"
562
00:35:52,008 --> 00:35:53,960
and their chemistry became very apparent
563
00:35:53,960 --> 00:35:55,856
through the performance.
564
00:36:26,809 --> 00:36:29,174
Alongside her television commitments,
565
00:36:29,174 --> 00:36:31,984
Gwen told MTV News during
New York Fashion Week
566
00:36:31,984 --> 00:36:34,356
that she was working on
both a No Doubt album,
567
00:36:34,356 --> 00:36:38,089
and a solo album.
568
00:36:38,089 --> 00:36:40,492
Billboard announced that
her third studio album
569
00:36:40,492 --> 00:36:43,818
was set to be released in December.
570
00:36:43,818 --> 00:36:45,651
On October 17th, 2015,
571
00:36:46,878 --> 00:36:48,758
Gwen Stefani performed a concert
572
00:36:48,758 --> 00:36:51,913
as part of her MasterCard
Priceless Surprises tour series
573
00:36:51,913 --> 00:36:54,768
at the Hammerstein
Ballroom in New York City,
574
00:36:54,768 --> 00:36:57,329
where she performed a new
song about her breakup
575
00:36:57,329 --> 00:37:01,985
with ex-husband, Gavin Rossdale,
titled "Used To Love You."
576
00:37:42,700 --> 00:37:46,420
It was released as a download
on October 20th, 2015,
577
00:37:46,420 --> 00:37:49,420
the video was released the same day.
578
00:37:50,307 --> 00:37:52,548
The song was released to
contemporary hit radio
579
00:37:52,548 --> 00:37:56,131
in the United States
on October 27th, 2015,
580
00:37:57,516 --> 00:37:59,260
the track is her first official single
581
00:37:59,260 --> 00:38:00,927
off her third solo album,
582
00:38:00,927 --> 00:38:03,927
"This Is What The Truth Feels Like."
583
00:38:06,542 --> 00:38:08,960
The album's second single,
"Make Me Like You,"
584
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,960
was released on February 12th, 2016.
585
00:38:14,478 --> 00:38:16,150
"This Is What The Truth Feels Like"
586
00:38:16,150 --> 00:38:19,294
was released on March 18th, 2016,
587
00:38:19,294 --> 00:38:22,643
and debuted at number
one on the Billboard 200
588
00:38:22,643 --> 00:38:24,828
with 84,000 album equivalent units
589
00:38:24,828 --> 00:38:26,719
sold in its first week,
590
00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,762
earning Gwen her first number
one album on the US chart
591
00:38:29,762 --> 00:38:31,179
as a solo artist.
592
00:38:32,583 --> 00:38:34,309
To further promote the album,
593
00:38:34,309 --> 00:38:37,513
Gwen embarked on her This Is
What The Truth Feels Like Tour
594
00:38:37,513 --> 00:38:40,596
with rapper Eve in the United States.
595
00:38:44,783 --> 00:38:47,940
Similarly to Gwen, Blake
went back into the studio,
596
00:38:47,940 --> 00:38:50,180
alongside his commitments on "The Voice,"
597
00:38:50,180 --> 00:38:52,524
and released his 10th studio album,
598
00:38:52,524 --> 00:38:54,525
titled "If I'm Honest."
599
00:38:54,525 --> 00:38:56,351
The album once again reached the top
600
00:38:56,351 --> 00:38:57,987
of the Country Billboard charts,
601
00:38:57,987 --> 00:39:02,215
and reached third on the US Billboard 200.
602
00:39:02,215 --> 00:39:04,695
"Every Time I Hear That
Song" was the lead single
603
00:39:04,695 --> 00:39:06,874
with its fresh pop sound.
604
00:39:06,874 --> 00:39:09,114
The video also felt very similar in style
605
00:39:09,114 --> 00:39:12,171
to his first single, "Austin."
606
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:41,872
"If I'm Honest" was a hit,
607
00:39:41,872 --> 00:39:45,403
and at the CBS People's
Choice Awards won two awards,
608
00:39:45,403 --> 00:39:47,205
one for Favorite Country Album,
609
00:39:47,205 --> 00:39:50,205
and one for Favorite Country Singer.
610
00:39:51,130 --> 00:39:52,381
I love it, I love it.
611
00:39:52,381 --> 00:39:56,442
I do not take this for
granted at all, you know?
612
00:39:56,442 --> 00:39:57,970
Anytime the fans are the ones
613
00:39:57,970 --> 00:39:59,682
that are making the decision out there,
614
00:39:59,682 --> 00:40:03,485
that's really where at the end of the day
615
00:40:03,485 --> 00:40:04,736
where the rubber meets the road,
616
00:40:04,736 --> 00:40:08,642
because we can have, you know,
all the industry inside of,
617
00:40:08,642 --> 00:40:11,905
you know, awards, and
committees, and things like that,
618
00:40:11,905 --> 00:40:14,320
but when people that are
actually buying the albums
619
00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:15,956
and the tickets, you know,
620
00:40:15,956 --> 00:40:17,805
take time out of their day
to pick up their phone,
621
00:40:17,805 --> 00:40:20,248
or their laptop, whatever
they use to vote on,
622
00:40:20,248 --> 00:40:21,954
and they do that for you, it means a lot,
623
00:40:21,954 --> 00:40:24,402
because I know that's, I mean,
it's a pain in the ass too
624
00:40:24,402 --> 00:40:27,213
to do that, you know, and they did it,
625
00:40:27,213 --> 00:40:30,586
and I can't believe it, and
I couldn't be more thankful
626
00:40:30,586 --> 00:40:31,672
that they did that.
627
00:40:31,672 --> 00:40:33,791
And where are
you keeping these bad boys?
628
00:40:33,791 --> 00:40:35,868
I got to get to, I was
telling someone earlier,
629
00:40:35,868 --> 00:40:38,274
I got a little home
interior shelf, I think,
630
00:40:38,274 --> 00:40:41,033
that my mother passed down
to me from a garage sale,
631
00:40:41,033 --> 00:40:42,321
she must've got it from somewhere,
632
00:40:42,321 --> 00:40:45,058
but I don't think it'll
hold, these things are heavy,
633
00:40:45,058 --> 00:40:47,388
like this is like, you
could burn a bug with these
634
00:40:47,388 --> 00:40:49,578
if you had the sunlight just right.
635
00:40:49,578 --> 00:40:51,498
So I don't know, I'd have to,
I'm gonna have to build on,
636
00:40:51,498 --> 00:40:55,135
I guess, from my People's Choice Awards.
637
00:40:55,135 --> 00:40:59,165
By 2017, Blake
had released 10 studio albums,
638
00:40:59,165 --> 00:41:01,553
and had been on "The Voice"
for six years straight,
639
00:41:01,553 --> 00:41:04,865
not only developing a close
relationship with Gwen Stefani,
640
00:41:04,865 --> 00:41:08,029
but also a good friendship
with his other costar,
641
00:41:08,029 --> 00:41:09,202
Adam Levine.
642
00:41:09,202 --> 00:41:10,908
If you would've told me then
643
00:41:10,908 --> 00:41:15,908
that this guy was gonna end up
being one of my best friends,
644
00:41:16,058 --> 00:41:20,572
I would have called you crazy,
but that's, what is this?
645
00:41:20,572 --> 00:41:23,943
Seven years later, six years
later, or whatever it is,
646
00:41:23,943 --> 00:41:28,943
Adam and I have been on an
incredible journey together,
647
00:41:29,079 --> 00:41:32,647
and we have both seen some ups and downs,
648
00:41:32,647 --> 00:41:35,835
and obviously I've seen, you know,
649
00:41:35,835 --> 00:41:36,975
a lot of ups and downs,
650
00:41:36,975 --> 00:41:41,058
and I've never had a more
honest and loyal friend
651
00:41:43,098 --> 00:41:47,228
than Adam Levine through my
personal journey knowing him,
652
00:41:47,228 --> 00:41:50,813
and so, you know, I
know this getting a star
653
00:41:50,813 --> 00:41:52,668
on the Walk of Fame is a big deal,
654
00:41:52,668 --> 00:41:55,701
and we all know he's a
huge star with music,
655
00:41:55,701 --> 00:41:57,135
and movies, and television,
656
00:41:57,135 --> 00:42:00,362
but I'm happy to see him get
this because he's my friend,
657
00:42:00,362 --> 00:42:01,862
and nobody is more
658
00:42:03,712 --> 00:42:07,295
shocked, I mean, proud
659
00:42:07,295 --> 00:42:10,311
than I am that he's gonna have a star
660
00:42:10,311 --> 00:42:12,679
on the Hollywood Walk of Fame forever.
661
00:42:12,679 --> 00:42:14,438
Congratulations, brother, I love you
662
00:42:17,658 --> 00:42:20,241
Thank you, brother, I love you.
663
00:42:24,098 --> 00:42:26,027
Later that
year, Blake, once again,
664
00:42:26,027 --> 00:42:29,066
went back into the studio
to work on his next album,
665
00:42:29,066 --> 00:42:30,899
titled "Texoma Shore."
666
00:42:32,176 --> 00:42:34,354
The album was another commercial success,
667
00:42:34,354 --> 00:42:37,295
reaching number one on the
Top Country Albums chart,
668
00:42:37,295 --> 00:42:40,628
and number four on the US Billboard 200.
669
00:42:42,054 --> 00:42:44,589
The lead single, titled
"I'll Name The Dogs,"
670
00:42:44,589 --> 00:42:46,450
was a much more country sounding song
671
00:42:46,450 --> 00:42:48,345
compared to previous singles,
672
00:42:48,345 --> 00:42:50,626
with the video showing Blake playing live
673
00:42:50,626 --> 00:42:52,495
at a traditional country wedding
674
00:42:52,495 --> 00:42:55,111
while people dance to his music.
675
00:42:55,111 --> 00:42:57,602
Blake Shelton also owns a
franchise of restaurants,
676
00:42:57,602 --> 00:43:01,162
and entertainment
complexes called Ole Red.
677
00:43:01,162 --> 00:43:03,154
The first Ole Red opened in his hometown
678
00:43:03,154 --> 00:43:06,737
of Tishomingo, Oklahoma
in September, 2017.
679
00:43:07,749 --> 00:43:11,263
A Nashville location opened in May, 2018.
680
00:43:11,263 --> 00:43:15,821
A third location in Gatlinburg
opened in March, 2019.
681
00:43:15,821 --> 00:43:20,162
A fourth location in Orlando,
Florida opened in May, 2020.
682
00:43:20,162 --> 00:43:22,095
That's my dream, that's my vision
683
00:43:22,095 --> 00:43:24,906
of somebody coming in here one day from,
684
00:43:24,906 --> 00:43:27,893
you know, wherever and
stopping in, and get a drink,
685
00:43:27,893 --> 00:43:30,023
and I happen to be sitting here,
686
00:43:30,023 --> 00:43:32,602
you know, playing my
guitar, singing some music.
687
00:43:32,602 --> 00:43:35,307
For me, it's as simple as
this is my home, you know,
688
00:43:35,307 --> 00:43:37,589
to come here and have a good time,
689
00:43:37,589 --> 00:43:41,079
maybe hear some music, and, you know,
690
00:43:41,079 --> 00:43:44,412
have a burger, and a drink or something.
691
00:43:47,618 --> 00:43:49,851
In November, 2015,
692
00:43:49,851 --> 00:43:51,409
representatives for Blake Shelton
693
00:43:51,409 --> 00:43:55,314
confirm the romance between
himself and Gwen Stefani,
694
00:43:55,314 --> 00:43:58,154
And they eventually both
spoke about their relationship
695
00:43:58,154 --> 00:44:00,704
saying they grew closer
after supporting each other
696
00:44:00,704 --> 00:44:02,621
through their divorces.
697
00:44:04,687 --> 00:44:06,701
It seems like the two found each other
698
00:44:06,701 --> 00:44:09,086
in the perfect time, began
to lean on each other,
699
00:44:09,086 --> 00:44:10,666
and become closer friends.
700
00:44:10,666 --> 00:44:14,133
From there, it turned into
a blossoming relationship.
701
00:44:14,133 --> 00:44:15,858
The two seem very serious,
702
00:44:15,858 --> 00:44:17,971
they spend a lot of time
together on Blake's farm,
703
00:44:17,971 --> 00:44:21,226
Blake has spent a lot of
time with Gwen's children,
704
00:44:21,226 --> 00:44:23,829
and it seems like they are
working towards building a family
705
00:44:23,829 --> 00:44:25,261
of their own.
706
00:44:25,261 --> 00:44:27,247
There's a lot of love between them,
707
00:44:27,247 --> 00:44:30,255
and I think a lot of people
like to see them together
708
00:44:30,255 --> 00:44:33,026
because obviously they
associate, you know,
709
00:44:33,026 --> 00:44:35,634
Blake has a very good boy
image for the most part,
710
00:44:35,634 --> 00:44:39,893
and I think that the audience
can really see how happy
711
00:44:39,893 --> 00:44:42,197
Gwen is next to him.
712
00:44:42,197 --> 00:44:43,855
So maybe deep down inside of the audience,
713
00:44:43,855 --> 00:44:48,555
you know, wants to believe
that this is the one for Gwen,
714
00:44:48,555 --> 00:44:51,487
and you know, she's
really not one to be known
715
00:44:51,487 --> 00:44:54,026
for being in many relationships.
716
00:44:54,026 --> 00:44:57,482
She was in a relationship with
Gavin Rossdale for 13 years,
717
00:44:57,482 --> 00:44:59,210
that's a very long relationship,
718
00:44:59,210 --> 00:45:01,787
at least in terms of
Hollywood standards, you know?
719
00:45:01,787 --> 00:45:04,882
A lot of these are
celebrity couples, you know,
720
00:45:04,882 --> 00:45:07,205
are dating one day and then
the next day they're, you know,
721
00:45:07,205 --> 00:45:09,463
dating someone else, and she
also has children, you know?
722
00:45:09,463 --> 00:45:13,880
So I think she is looking
for someone to settle with.
723
00:45:14,927 --> 00:45:19,844
There have been reports that
Gwen's kids really like Blake,
724
00:45:21,154 --> 00:45:22,891
so I think it's a good thing,
725
00:45:22,891 --> 00:45:25,068
and fingers crossed it'll be something
726
00:45:25,068 --> 00:45:27,741
that'll last a long time.
727
00:45:27,741 --> 00:45:30,222
In February, 2016,
728
00:45:30,222 --> 00:45:33,563
the pair made their first
public debut on the red carpet
729
00:45:33,563 --> 00:45:37,053
at the Vanity Fair 2016
Oscars After Party.
730
00:45:41,002 --> 00:45:44,749
Shortly after this in May Gwen
and Blake performed a duet,
731
00:45:44,749 --> 00:45:48,917
"Go Ahead and Break My Heart"
at the Billboard Awards.
732
00:45:48,917 --> 00:45:53,917
The song was recorded for
Blake's album, "If I'm Honest."
733
00:45:54,093 --> 00:45:56,693
Their costar and close
friend, Adam Levine,
734
00:45:56,693 --> 00:45:58,778
opened up about their relationship,
735
00:45:58,778 --> 00:46:02,375
and claimed the couple were so in love.
736
00:46:02,375 --> 00:46:06,698
In June, 2018, Gwen began
her Las Vegas residency,
737
00:46:06,698 --> 00:46:09,506
titled "Just a Girl Las Vegas,"
738
00:46:09,506 --> 00:46:12,594
and Blake was by her side to support her.
739
00:46:12,594 --> 00:46:14,571
The show was named after a No Doubt song,
740
00:46:14,571 --> 00:46:17,303
"Just a Girl" and proceeds
from the show were donated
741
00:46:17,303 --> 00:46:19,886
to the organization, Cure4Kids.
742
00:46:21,929 --> 00:46:24,387
On December 13th, 2019,
743
00:46:24,387 --> 00:46:27,611
Gwen featured on Blake's
single, "Nobody But You,"
744
00:46:27,611 --> 00:46:29,139
from his compilation album,
745
00:46:29,139 --> 00:46:32,213
"Fully Loaded, God's Country."
746
00:46:53,685 --> 00:46:57,129
The song peaked at number
18 on the Billboard Hot 100,
747
00:46:57,129 --> 00:47:00,101
and 49 on the Canadian Hot 100.
748
00:47:01,984 --> 00:47:04,107
On July 24th, 2020,
749
00:47:04,107 --> 00:47:06,440
Gwen and Blake released another single,
750
00:47:06,440 --> 00:47:08,349
titled "Happy Anywhere,"
751
00:47:08,349 --> 00:47:11,182
inspired by the COVID-19 pandemic.
752
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:13,173
In the following years,
753
00:47:13,173 --> 00:47:16,244
the pair gushed over each
other publicly in interviews
754
00:47:16,244 --> 00:47:17,843
and performances.
755
00:47:17,843 --> 00:47:20,456
When finally after five years together,
756
00:47:20,456 --> 00:47:23,908
Blake Shelton proposed in October, 2020.
757
00:47:30,856 --> 00:47:32,594
There have been constant
debates in the media
758
00:47:32,594 --> 00:47:34,856
about who will perform at their wedding,
759
00:47:34,856 --> 00:47:37,421
with stars, such as Miley
Cyrus and Adam Levine
760
00:47:37,421 --> 00:47:40,155
throwing their names into the mix.
761
00:47:46,416 --> 00:47:48,248
On December fourth, 2020,
762
00:47:48,248 --> 00:47:51,906
Gwen Stefani revealed she had
plans to release a new single
763
00:47:51,906 --> 00:47:54,823
called "Let Me Reintroduce Myself"
764
00:47:54,823 --> 00:47:56,697
after a series of cryptic posts
765
00:47:56,697 --> 00:47:59,114
on her social media accounts.
766
00:48:00,414 --> 00:48:03,619
This song was released on
December seventh, 2020,
767
00:48:03,619 --> 00:48:06,786
climbing to first on the iTunes Chart.
768
00:48:40,523 --> 00:48:45,190
The song's music video premiered
on January first, 2021.
769
00:48:46,453 --> 00:48:48,733
She also teased a new
song called "Slow Clap"
770
00:48:48,733 --> 00:48:52,885
through her Instagram, which
was released March 11th, 2021,
771
00:48:52,885 --> 00:48:54,969
alongside a remix of the song
772
00:48:54,969 --> 00:48:57,969
featuring upcoming rapper, Saweetie.
773
00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,459
On March 30th, 2021,
774
00:49:01,459 --> 00:49:04,645
it was announced that Gwen's
upcoming fifth studio album
775
00:49:04,645 --> 00:49:08,405
will be called "Let Me
Reintroduce Myself."
776
00:49:08,405 --> 00:49:11,719
Also in March, 2021, Blake
announced "Body Language,"
777
00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,325
his first brand new
full length studio album
778
00:49:14,325 --> 00:49:15,908
in over four years.
779
00:49:18,659 --> 00:49:21,557
The album will include the
singles, "Happy Anywhere,"
780
00:49:21,557 --> 00:49:23,140
and "Minimum Wage."
781
00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:28,733
Gwen Stefani and Blake
Shelton tied the knot at last,
782
00:49:28,733 --> 00:49:31,077
after five years of being engaged,
783
00:49:31,077 --> 00:49:33,244
it happened in July, 2021.
784
00:49:34,314 --> 00:49:38,231
It was a surprise, pretty
much secret nuptials.
785
00:49:39,238 --> 00:49:40,507
The people only found out about it,
786
00:49:40,507 --> 00:49:42,350
'cause they filed for
the marriage certificate
787
00:49:42,350 --> 00:49:44,827
48 hours, by law, you have to do that,
788
00:49:44,827 --> 00:49:47,521
before the actual ceremony took place
789
00:49:47,521 --> 00:49:51,163
and it happened on
Shelton's ranch in Oklahoma.
790
00:49:51,163 --> 00:49:53,746
He had a church basically built
791
00:49:54,884 --> 00:49:57,295
as the venue specifically for it.
792
00:49:57,295 --> 00:50:01,167
It was a very, very intimate
ceremony, just their family.
793
00:50:01,167 --> 00:50:04,271
One of Gwen's three boys
read from the Bible.
794
00:50:04,271 --> 00:50:07,496
Carson Daly was the officiator
of the whole ceremony,
795
00:50:07,496 --> 00:50:10,104
he read the vows and actually was the one
796
00:50:10,104 --> 00:50:12,309
that said you are husband and wife,
797
00:50:12,309 --> 00:50:16,400
which is really cute since
he's the host of "The Voice."
798
00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,285
Gwen had already had a six
to nine carat solitaire ring
799
00:50:19,285 --> 00:50:21,643
that she'd been rocking
for the last couple years
800
00:50:21,643 --> 00:50:23,070
that Blake had given her.
801
00:50:23,070 --> 00:50:25,081
Now, she's gonna have a
band to go along with it,
802
00:50:25,081 --> 00:50:29,126
and be Mrs. Shelton, so
that'll be fabulous to see.
803
00:50:37,488 --> 00:50:39,150
Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton
804
00:50:39,150 --> 00:50:41,344
have taken the media by storm
805
00:50:41,344 --> 00:50:44,806
with fans gushing over their love story.
806
00:50:44,806 --> 00:50:46,585
While their romance initially seems
807
00:50:46,585 --> 00:50:48,758
to have taken everyone by surprise,
808
00:50:48,758 --> 00:50:52,675
the duo took a chance on
love, and it paid off.
809
00:50:53,795 --> 00:50:56,573
The world can not wait to watch
them build a life together
810
00:50:56,573 --> 00:50:58,321
over the coming years.
