    Blake Shelton Sues Tabloid for Defamation, Denies He Has Drinking Problem or Went to Rehab

    Blake Shelton filed a lawsuit several weeks ago against In Touch Weekly for defamation of character. The tabloid claimed The Voice coach and “Came Here to Forget” singer has a drinking problem, for which he went to rehab, and wrote that he–among other unsavory things–urinated on a mailbox because of said vice.

    On top of that, the tabloid claimed Blake Shelton’s drinking contributed to his split from Miranda Lambert, publishing he was unfaithful to her, too.

    TMZ obtained a sworn declaration Blake Shelton submitted to the courts this past Thursday. In it he lists several points that ascertain In Touch published some rather glaring untruths.

    In the declaration, Blake Shelton swears to the following:

    “I have never been to rehab.”

    “I did not then nor have I ever hit rock bottom.”

    “I do not drink excessively, binge drink or have a drinking problem.”

    “I do not drink vodka before 11 AM.”

    “I am never drunk, intoxicated, or unable to perform my job on The Voice.

    “I do not slur my words or stumble when I drink.”

    “I have never urinated on a mailbox.”

    “My ex-wife Miranda Lambert did not catch me with a bunch of naked women in our Tennessee home.”

    Blake Shelton is represented by attorney Judy Smith, who is the real-life inspiration for Olivia Pope on Scandal.

    “The story was categorically false. Blake said enough is enough and decided to fight back,” she said to TMZ in recent days.

    High fives are in order for Blake Shelton for hitting back at this sort of defamation. Tabloids have long gotten away with publishing countless lies about a wealth of celebrities. These kinds of lies can damage a person’s credibility and hurt their fan base.

    It will be interesting to learn if Blake Shelton’s case moves forward within the court system. It must pass through some hurdles before it actually heads to court, but it’s well on its way.

    Blake Shelton has Gwen Stefani on his side to lighten his load. He is on her side, too, as evidenced when he purchased not just one, but six copies of her newly released album, “This is What the Truth Feels Like.”

    In Touch Weekly might soon learn exactly what the truth feels like, especially if Blake Shelton wins this case. That truth could cost them the $2 million he is seeking.

  • Blake Shelton Shows Love for Gwen Stefani at Cincinnati Concert

    Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have been dating since this past fall, and every picture of them that crops up shows their love growing deeper and deeper. That love was present in Cincinnati on Thursday night, too, when Blake Shelton appeared in concert at the U.S. Bank Arena.

    Prior to Blake taking the stage, fans were treated to some tunes over a speaker system. It didn’t take long for them to realize it was Gwen Stefani serenading them with several of her recent songs.

    Gwen Stefani recently debuted a new song–at the Grammy Awards–called “Make Me Like You.” She admits it is all about Blake Shelton. When the song premiered at the Grammys, Blake Shelton was spotted smiling broadly.

    On a month-long concert tour that will take him “across the midwest, northeast, and Tennessee,” Blake Shelton will perform 11 shows. Fans are already wondering if Gwen Stefani will at some point join him on the road.

    Does it surprise you that Blake Shelton played Gwen Stefani tunes for his fans as they awaited the main performance in Cincinnati? It will be interesting to learn if this is something he plans to do for the remaining 10 shows.

  • Gwen Stefani And Blake Shelton: Is It Love, Rebound, Or Another Step In “Spiritual Phase”?

    Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have been exceedingly open about their relationship so far, almost making their time together look like new love for the two of them.

    Both Gwen Stefani and Shelton have experienced recent, and shocking, divorces from their respective spouses, Gavin Rossdale and Miranda Lambert.

    It’s hard to picture Gwen Stefani with anyone other than Gavin Rossdale, especially if you’re a child of the 90’s and remember them as the musical royal couple of the day.

    However, it seems Gwen Stefani is pretty comfy with Blake Shelton. So much so, that after being spotted kissing and laughing time and again, Gwen posted this pic to her Instagram, which seems to be a “morning after” shot of her in Shelton’s hat that he wore on their recent date night.

    Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton make divorce look like a mild inconvenience as opposed to a life-shattering occurrence.

    Does that make it love? Or could it be just another stop on the road to spiritual fulfillment for Gwen Stefani?

    Back in September, Gwen Stefani spoke of her new phase in life and music writing, saying, “My songs are really about my life, for the most part, so they capture time periods.”

    She added, “Singing them again, after you’ve gone through life and come back, it’s so intense… I just write about my life. Really, you can’t come across any human being that doesn’t have like crazy stuff going on the entire time.”

    So true.

    Gwen Stefani also opened up about her blooming spiritual side.

    She said, “I’m in a real spiritual phase in my life, so it’s all about listening and being grateful and being in the moment, kind of being open to channeling and being guided. So when you’re in that place, anything can happen. And it has, in so many magical ways.”

    Could Blake just be another magical anything-can-happen moment, soon to fizzle out? Or do you think Gwen Stefani has just really quickly found new love with a great guy?

  • Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton Break the Adorable Meter In New Pics

    Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton couldn’t be more adorable and recently captured pics of the couple prove it.

    Not only are The Voice coaches seemingly in love, they are not afraid to show some PDA while out and about.

    On Wednesday, Gwen and Blake were spotted cracking up while driving around Los Angeles on Thursday and the pics are ridiculously adorable.

    Stefani, 46, looks way too cute wearing what appears to be one of Shelton’s camo hats, driving around town while her 39-year-old beau, rides shotgun in her Range Rover.

    The pair are nearly inseparable and do not hold back in sharing their affection for each other.

    As reported by Us Weekly, Stefani and Shelton confirmed they were dating in November on the same day as the country music awards. Their announcement came just months after their respective divorces over the summer.

    “Gwen and Blake are longtime friends who have very recently started dating,” Stefani’s spokesperson said of the couple.

    Since taking their love public, Blake and Gwen have been super cuddly during numerous outings, even for the NBC cameras. Earlier this week, Stefani shared an adorable photo from The Voice stage with Blake playfully biting his girlfriend’s shoulder as fellow coaches Pharrell Williams and Adam Levine look on.

  • Christina Aguilera Thinks Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani Make Great Couple

    Christina Aguilera chatted with Access Hollywood recently, and since she is among the original coaches on The Voice, the talk naturally turned to Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani. Aguilera is happy for the new couple.

    Learning that Blake and Gwen were truly dating came as a surprise to Christina Aguilera, however.

    “I think there was starting to be rumors about it, and I was like, [laughs] ‘Yeah, right, Blake!’” she says. “It was just funny. We were just palling around, joking around. And then it became real.”

    Xtina believes the two make a great couple.

    Blake Shelton is “a barrel of laughs, and has been like a brother to me,” she says.

    Christina Aguilera is pro-Gwen Stefani as well.

    “She’s an awesome girl. She’s such a dedicated mom,” she adds.

    “Happiness deserves happiness. They’re good people. I just know that divorce is tough and so they deserve some laughs and happiness and if it’s [with] each other, then they deserve each other,” Christina Aguilera says.

    Has Christina had a chance to speak to Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani since that proverbial cat came out of its bag?

    “I just saw them yesterday, actually, and I got the chance to tell [Gwen] in person … ‘You get that cowboy, girl!’” she says.

    That sounds about right for Christina Aguilera. She’s nothing if not just this side of raunchy. That’s actually a rather tame statement for the “Beautiful” singer.

    Christina Aguilera will return to The Voice next season, meaning Blake Shelton won’t have Gwen Stefani by his side. In fact, Gwen will be on tour with No Doubt.

    Do you expect Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton will still be a couple when Christina Aguilera returns to The Voice?
