If we have learned nothing else about Blake Shelton, we know he cares precious little what people think about him. Not only does he ignore the constant rumors about there being trouble in his marriage to Miranda Lambert, but he seems to like saying things that further ignite them. Shelton recently sat for an interview that will air on CBS's 60 Minutes tonight, and some of his answers will leave fans speculating on the status of his marriage.
When he was asked about the rumors of his infidelity and whether or not his love of alcohol has an effect on his home life, Shelton eventually said:
"Gosh dang, man, I hear about it all the time. You know, 'It's the same subject matter over and over again,' and, 'All y'all sing about is' you know, 'Pretty girls,' I like pretty girls and I like drinking and I like singing about it. So get over it. It's not just our music, I think, that people feel like they can relate to. But it's us. It's the artists that they feel like they can relate to. I know for me when I go home I hunt, I fish, and I plant corn, and I drive back roads. I literally do the things that I sing about."
Unfortunately, by referencing those "pretty girls" rather than just his wife even in this interview seems to leave some to wonder just how rock solid his union with Lambert really could be, She has quite often come out and addressed how she checks up on Shelton and that is how she knows she can trust him. It does seem like the common ground between the two has lessened in the last year as Lambert has whipped herself into shape and refuses to party with her husband like she used to.
