Blake Shelton: The Christmas Gift He Squealed About

Author Nancy Brooks // Country Writer, Beasley Media Group

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani were spotted the weekend before Christmas Day in the Utah mountains of Park City doing some family tubing and skiing. TMZ reported that the couple and their boys were very “cheerful” and even posed for pictures with fans before heading back up the mountains for family fun.

The couple then posted their festivities back home on Christmas Day with a video collage on Instagram of the family cooking their Italian feast, sitting around the table together with extended family, and having fun in what looks like their California home.

Gwen captioned the post on Christmas Day, “From our family 2 yours, we hope u had a very merry Christmas 🙂 gx.”

On New Year’s Day, Blake posted a video clip of a Kubota cart with four seats and a small truck-like bed to his Instagram. He said over the video, pointing, “I hate it when people brag about their Christmas gifts, but look what I got from Kuboto! Whoo hoo-hoo. I love you!”

Shelton’s father, Dick Shelton, was a salesman for Kubota in Oklahoma when Blake was a kid. The younger Shelton has consistently promoted the Kubota line of farm equipment throughout his career.

Blake said in a video he posted in September, “Here’s a farm update for you all, September 22, I put some seed in the ground; the old Kubota is moving the earth. Kevin is driving today; he can be a little selfish sometimes. I can’t blame him when it comes to that tractor. Anyway, that’s the update. You’re welcome, America.”

When the post was just an hour old, it already had almost 5,000 likes. Many fans commented on Shelton’s latest farm video, including one fan who said, “Looking great, Blake. My Dad was a farmer, and I know what hard work it is to run one. Have a great day.” Another fan wrote, “So awesome! Thanks for the update!! I love seeing this process and can’t wait for the next steps!! lol.” One more fan gushed, “Love this. Blake, I’ve never seen Gwen look so happy. You can see it on her face whenever I see the two of you together. Happy for you both.”

6 Country Superstars That Should Play Super Bowl Halftime

  • Luke Bryan

    Luke is all about having a good time on stage, and his energy and hit songs make for a great show for his double-booked sold-out arena shows. He has also become a Las Vegas performer in the last couple of years, which helps. When we interviewed Bryan recently, he shared his thoughts on if he ever got asked to play a Super Bowl halftime show. He told us, “I think I would certainly love the opportunity to do a Super Bowl Halftime show. I think the beauty of someone in that role, if it were me, I would bring everybody to the party. A lot of special guests, a lot of surprises. If I got asked, certainly Jason Aldean would be my first call.”

  • Keith Urban

    This journalist has loved Keith Urban for his music and the generally lovely and considerate guy he is since the day I met him at an interview before he became a superstar in the early 2000s. So, yes, I am biased when it comes to Urban. That being said, his shows are legendary, and with his guitar skills, Keith would make country music proud at the Super Bowl halftime show. His Las Vegas residency sells out every year, and imagine, with an Oscar-winning wife (Nicole Kidman) to cheer him on, how Hollywood would come out to support a Keith Urban halftime show.

  • Blake Shelton

    One of country music’s biggest stars and personalities, Blake would be great at the Super Bowl halftime show, especially if his wife, Gwen Stefani, took the stage with her man. Shelton is one of country music’s biggest NFL fans; specifically, he is a die-hard Arizona Cardinals fan.

  • Morgan Wallen

    Morgan’s star is getting so big in country music, and this guy keeps fans screaming for more in multiple nights of stadium shows in big cities all over the country. If Wallen played the Super Bowl halftime show, you can bet he would more than likely have his buddies HARDY, Ernest, and Bailey Zimmerman also on the show.

  • Luke Combs

    Luke knows how to keep a stadium of fans hanging on his every word at his double night booked stadium shows all over the country, so he is a natural to play the Super Bowl halftime show. Just a handful of years into his massive career and three CMA Entertainer of the Year awards already under his belt, he is a no-brainer for the halftime show. Can you imagine the excitement of the Super Bowl crowd when he plays his wild “Beer Never Broke My Heart” encore?

  • Carrie Underwood -

    With her ties to Sunday Night Football and her love of the game and the players, Carrie would be great at the Super Bowl Halftime show. Her energetic performance would undoubtedly include some of her big rocker friends like Axl Rose and Joan Jett. Underwood would more than likely also have some serious aerial moves like she did when she performed on her Denim & Rhinestone tour.

She loves her life in country music and has been backstage at every CMA Awards show since the late 1990s. Many of her stories are from her one-on-one interviews. She was there at the beginning of the incredible careers of many music superstars today, including Taylor Swift, Shania Twain, and Blake Shelton, and has interviewed them multiple times throughout the years.
