Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani: Going Strong at People"s Choice Awards!

Isn"t it so nice to see Gwen Stefani happy after the absolute mess that was her divorce from Gavin Rossdale?

It was widely reported that he had a long affair with their nanny, but whatever happened, Gwen was very clear about being traumatized from it.

After she filed for divorce, she spoke at length about how hurt she was by whatever it was that happened. It was awful.

But then she began dating her fellow co-star on The Voice, country star Blake Shelton, and things began looking up for her.

Gwen and Blake — Gwake, if you will — were very vocal about their love for each other for a while, to the point where they got a bit obnoxious.

Some people even began thinking the relationship was staged, things were so constantly, overwhelmingly sappy.

But in the past several months, it seems like these two have really settled into their relationship.

They don"t gush about each other every waking moment like they used to, and it"s been a nice change.

But don"t for one second think that their love has faded — and if you can"t help it, just check out this clip of Blake Shelton at last night"s People"s Choice Awards.

Blake won two awards, one for Favorite Album and one for Favorite Male Country Artist, and during his acceptance speech, he took a moment to talk about Gwen, who was in the audience.

Check out the incredibly adorable speech here:

Gwen Stefani: Gavin Rossdale is EMBARRASSING!

If you believe what Gwen Stefani – and, you know, Glamour – have to say, she feels like she “got woken up this year.” 

Yeah, we’d say so. 

In a brand new interview with the mag, Gwen addressed Gavin Rossdale’s cheating, her career resurgence, and her relationship with Blake Shelton. 

Yawn, Gwen. Yawn. 

She told Glamour, “Sometimes to be woken up again in life, you need to go through some really bad, hard times.

“I feel like I got woken up this year.”

Perhaps that’s why her schtick is so tired. 

Ba-dum-ching. 

When asked about her feelings on the last year of her life, she said, “[It’s] mind-blowing. I don’t understand my journey.”

“It’s so crazy,” she continued, “but one thing I learned is, that’s what life is. We all have to go through hard times, tragedies.”

“Those are given to us to see what we’re going to do with them,” she reflected. 

About her rat’s ass cheater of an ex-husband, Gwen got more candid than ever.

“I don’t think you’ll talk to one person who didn’t make it in a marriage who’s not gonna feel [shame],” she said.

“The intention of being married is the vow, right? You want to put everything into it to make it a success.”

“I had to work really hard at marriage, all the time … but ours was extra hard,” Stefani admitted.

“Extra hard,” she said … no pun intended. 

The conversation quickly turned to Shelton, who everyone wants to hear about. 

No, just kidding. 

We’re more interested in the dirt and details behind Gwen’s split with Gavin, but we’ll settle for this. 

About Blake, Stefani said, “He was a friend to me when I needed a friend. An unexpected gift.”

Honestly speaking, it’s a cop-out.

 

Shelton is kind of a gift to us all, so what she said about him wasn’t really earth-shattering. 

Come to think of it, nothing aside from Gwen roundaboutly admitting that Gavin cheated was really earth-shattering. 

It’s high time that Stefani went and wrote that tell-all that we’re all salivating over, right?  

Get on it, girl. 

It’ll be tremendously more entertaining than anything you can say to a fashion magazine.

Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton: We Want to Adopt a Baby Girl!

Ever since the world learned that Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are dating, fans have been pushing them to get married and make babies with the urgency of a terminally bored grandmother.

Rumors about Gwen and Blake getting married began circulating pretty immediately.

Not surprisingly, Stefani pregnancy rumors followed shortly thereafter.

We’re not sure why there’s been such a push for Blake to put a baby in Gwen, as she’s 47 and already has three kids, but the fans want it, and supposedly Blake wants it too.

He hasn’t really said much on the topic.

The 4 million Gwake stans who have changed their profile pics to photos of the couple and live-tweet The Voice like its a presidential debate seem pretty convinced that Gwen’s vagina shall deliver unto us a chosen one to lead us from the darkness.

Thus, the Gwake-child talk continues … but with a twist:

“They will absolutely pursue adoption,” a source close to the couple tells Life & Style.

“It might be a baby, or it might be a toddler. But no matter what, they want a little girl in their arms by the end of 2017.”

Psssht … adopting babies and toddlers is so passe.

We say adopt a 23-year-old grad student and pay off his student loans.

That’s the future, y’all.

And it would be a perfect arrangement for Gwen and Blake.

They can both remain devoted to their careers, and Blake can take the kid out to pound some Bud Heavies on the weekend, but they’ll still get all the satisfaction of attending his graduation and being like:

“We did that! Us! As a couple!”

Anyway, if there’s any truth to these rumors, then you can take them as a pretty sure indication that Gwen and Blake are planning to get hitched in the very near future.

After all, why would they pick an arbitrary date like “the end of 2017” unless they were planning to be man and wife by then?

On a related note:

Blake and Gwen’s one-year anniversary is right around the corner, and it’s been rumored that Shelton’s planning to mark the occasion by popping the question.

So you may want to just go ahead mail them some copper cookware now, Gwake stans.

If your gift comes before anyone else’s, we bet they’ll totes want to be your friend.

Gavin Rossdale: Gwen Stefani is So Incredible!

So Gavin Rossdale is pretty awful, right?

He’s always seemed kind of slimy, and honestly, it’s 2016: why is Bush still a thing?

Throw in all those rumors that his divorce from Gwen Stefani was brought on because of a sordid affair he had with their nanny, and, well, he’s pretty much the worst.

But even though anyone with the tiniest bit of consideration would slither into the shadows after what happened with Gwen, Gavin is, for some unfathomable reason, still insisting on being famous.

And not only is he still insisting on being famous, he took on the weirdest, most questionable role thinkable for a famous musician who just got divorced from Gwen Stefani.

He’s on The Voice, guys.

Well, he’s on the UK version of The Voice, but he’s a coach, just like Gwen — he spins around in a little red chair and everything.

It’s awkward, isn’t it?

He didn’t have to do a singing competition show, and if he did, he didn’t have to do Gwen’s show — the same show on which she found her new guy.

It’s actually kind of creepy.

And if you think that’s creepy, then just wait till you hear Gavin acknowledge how creepy it is.

“It’s ironic,” he said about landing the exact same gig as his former wife. “It’s like nothing’s surprising anymore.”

You can say that again.

“She’s so incredible at it,” he went on. “I’ve watched her.”

“She’s really, really brilliant at that show. She’s so natural at it. I hope that I’m just half as good as her.”

This is, funnily enough, the first time that Gavin’s directly spoken about Gwen since she filed for divorce last year.

He’s touched a little on the divorce itself though, and he did so just a couple of weeks ago in an interview with The Sunday Times.

Hilariously, he said “It’s like, enough already. I’ve got to move on. Everyone has got to move on.”

Really, bud? Because that seems like an awful lot of talk for someone who just took the exact same job as his ex-wife.

If he really wanted to move on, he could have taken literally any other gig.

But what fun would that be for a big ol’ creeper like Gavin?

The Voice: Renewed for 2 Seasons, Set to Reunite Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton

Reunited, and it will soon feel so good!

NBC announced on Tuesday morning that it has renewed The Voice for Season 12 and Season 13, confirming along with this news the identity of the show’s coaches for both upcoming seasons.

And Gwen Stefani will be making her return for Season 12, joining boyfriend Blake Shelton on the competition’s red-chaired panel.

Miley Cyrus, who joined the program this year, will sit out that season, but return for Season 13.

“We can’t wait to experience the unique chemistry and energy Gwen, Alicia, Blake and Adam will bring to Season 12,” Paul Telegdy, NBC President of Alternative and Reality Group, said in a statement.

“With Miley returning for Season 13, we’re truly ecstatic about the unmatched musical know-how and talent coming together in our coming seasons.”

No premiere date has yet been set for The Voice Season 12.

But with Season 13 set for the fall of 2017, it’s safe to assume Season 12 will air some time next spring, likely kicking off in February.

Stefani first signed on as a coach for season 7 and came back for season 9.

It was impossible for viewers to miss the sparks that flew between her and Shelton in the autumn of last year, just a few months after both filed for divorce; from Gavin Rossdale and Miranda Lambert, respectively.

Stefani then served as an advisor for Shelton’s squad on Season 10.

By that point, her relationship with the country crooner was public knowledge.

In fact, Stefani and Shelton celebrated their one-year anniversary just a few days ago.

At this point, it seems almost impossible to remember a time when they were NOT dating, doesn’t it?

(For those wondering, yes, Carson Daly will be continuing on as the host of the NBC singing competition for all foreseeable seasons.)

There’s been talk that Stefani and Shelton are pondering both getting married and having a baby, although this talk has not emanated from either of the stars themselves.

They seem pretty content to just hang out and have fun.

The relationship is serious, but not wedding-bells or baby-showers serious, that’s all.

Miley Cyrus: Threatening To QUIT The Voice?

As for the addition of Cyrus for this season? And the influx of aspiring singers?

Some have been calling Season 11 the very best season of The Voice to date.

Miley has brought fresh energy and a new perspective, while the chemistry between Levine and Shelton is as strong as ever.

Few artists out there possess the sort of vocal chops as Keys has in her lungs and throat, making her as respected a coach within the industry as The Voice could ever find.

Plus, the daughter of a Full House star auditioned and joined Adam’s team!

Natasha Bure – “Can’t Help Falling in Love”

It’s been a fun season all around.

We can’t wait to see what the future brings.

Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton Celebrate One-Year Anniversary!

It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost one full year since we first learned that Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are dating.

In the months since the Gwake bomb dropped, there have been countless rumors of Shelton and Stefani getting engaged, but thus far, we still haven’t seen a ring on Gwen’s finger.

But that’s not to say the couple doesn’t have plenty to celebrate.

Just 18 short months ago, Blake and Gwen were both married to other people.

Now, The Voice co-stars are head over heels for one another in a way that has fans (and eye-rolling haters) anticipating a wedding announcement any day.

We don’t know exactly when they hooked up for the first time, but we’re still a couple weeks shy of the date when Blake and Gwen confirmed they were dating on social media.

But that hasn’t stopped the couple from gushing about their 12 months of bliss in recent interviews:

“I was thinking about that because I feel like last year at this time, I went and took my kids to go see The Sound of Music for my birthday,” she recently told People magazine.

“You do that. You go, ‘Where was I last year?’”

Gwen avoided going into specifics, but it’s clear that her feelings for Shelton haven’t diminished over the past year:

“I can’t say anything but I’m so blessed,” she says about her relationship with Shelton.

“It’s just crazy how much happened, you know what I mean? So many beautiful memories.”

The couple is already celebrating their upcoming one-year milestone with some trips down memory lane.

They recently took Gwen’s kids to Disney Land and even swung by Gwen’s childhood home in Anaheim while they were in the area.

In the clip below, Gwen presents a compelling case for the argument that celebrities stop maturing at whatever age they became famous, as she goes full adolescent-fangirl over her own childhood home:

Gwen Stefani Visits Her Childhood Home

We get that it’s exciting to visit the house where you grew up, but Anaheim is like a 40-minute drive from LA, and … Gwen does know she’s rich and can make that trip whenever she wants, right?

Anyway, fans are already speculating that the couple will follow that up with a trip to Shelton’s childhood home in Oklahoma, where Blake will pop the question.

Obviously, neither party is confirming that particular rumor, but the singers say they appreciate all the fan interest in their romance.

“I was saying yesterday to somebody, I really feel the love, you know what I mean? It’s hard to put into words, but it’s a really cool thing to have that.”

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton: Throwing The Biggest Wedding EVER???

While more credible media outlets confirm that Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are indeed planning for a long future together, talk of a grand ceremony isn’t quite on the mark.

Star Magazine’s cover this week claims to know all about secrets of Stefani and Shelton ceremony.

“The vows, the gowns, the guests,” the cover screams.

“They bought their rings online!”

“Why Miranda [Lambert] stormed out in tears,” another caption read next to a photo of Shelton’s ex-wife wiping away a tear.

Inside the magazine, according to Gossip Cop, things get even weirder.

“Preparations are already well under way. They’re planning the wedding for late October, when they’ll both have a break in their busy work schedules,” Star claims, going into detail on Stefani’s gown, the guest list and their honeymoon.

Speaking of guest list, Lambert “stormed out” of somewhere when she found out she was invited.  Where she stormed out of is really not important given how fake this story seems.

“The nuptials will be held at Blake’s $ 2.3 million estate in Nashville, right after Gwen wraps up her ‘This Is What The Truth Feels Like’ tour and Blake finishes shooting the current season of ‘The Voice.’”

Gossip Cop pointed out that The Voice doesn’t wrap its live episodes until the middle of December.

Earlier this month, a source told People magazine that “rumors are circulating in their circle that they’ve begun preparations for a wedding.

“There’s no date set, but they’re planning ahead and having fun talking about it.”

Alrighty, so perhaps Star Magazine wasn’t completely off the mark.

“Everyone is expecting it to happen at some point, but Gwen is touring and busy,” the source added.

“The time just hasn’t been right.  Blake and Gwen are madly in love, committed and planning for a future together.”

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani: ENGAGED!

According to TMZ, the rumors have become a reality:

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are getting married!

You’ve probably read this claim many times over the past few months.

Heck, you probably read that Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton were already married.

And you also may have seen allegations that the famous couple is expecting a pair of babies at some point.

Indeed, many things have been written about Stefani and Shelton ever since they made their romance official, but it feels different this time around.

Why? Because TMZ is the source breaking the engagement news.

You may think that website is seedy and shady and possibly the scum of the universe… but it’s rarely wrong.

In this case, TMZ writes that Gwen and Blake have hired famous wedding designer Jerri Woolworth to take charge of their nuptials.

That’s the sort of detail that makes this report a whole lot easier to believe than past rumors about the artists. 

Woolworth has offices in Tennessee and New York. She has planned events that range in size from 15 people to 15,000 people, including events sponsored by the CMAs, the NFL and the NHL.

The popular planner did not respond to a request for comment on this story and no wedding date has been set yet.

But mark these words: Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are getting married!

View Slideshow: Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani: 11 Most Adorable PDA Moments

Both panelists on The Voice, both also got divorced last summer.

In a recent interview with Cosmopolitan, Stefani once again hinted at some major drama (like an affair with the nanny?) that went down between her and ex-husband Gavin Rossdale.

Shelton, meanwhile, broke up with Miranda Lambert after nearly four years of marriage.

There was talk of infidelity here and there on both sides, but nothing has ever been confirmed.

As far as famous celebrity divorces go, this one ended up pretty boring and amicable in the end.

Within just a few months of both stars becoming single, they started dating.

According to Stefani, it wasn’t working together on The Voice that sparked the romance as much as it was collaborating on the single “Go Ahead and Break My Heart.”

As she told Cosmo this month:

Blake wrote the song and sent it to me. He was like, ‘Help me finish it.’ I wrote a verse and sent it to him, but he was gone because he doesn’t live in L.A.

He didn’t have WiFi, so he wasn’t answering me back! As soon as he came back to town, he brought his guitar over. We were like, ‘We wrote a song together! This is crazy!

And the rest will soon be marital history.

Assuming this report really is accurate, we send Shelton and Stefani our heartfelt congratulations.

Gwen Stefani on Gavin Rossdale Split: You Have NO IDEA What Happened!

Gwen Stefani split from Gavin Rossdale after 13 years of marriage last summer.

Ever since, the singer has remained mostly mum regarding the basis for this divorce, focusing on co-parenting the three kids she and her estranged husband share. 

Here and there, however, Stefani has come out and hinted at the MAJOR DRAMA that played out last year between her and Rossdale.

In March, for example, Stefani told The New York Times that “my life was literally blown up into my face” the day after she performed at the Grammy Awards.

The artist said she would prefer to keep the details private, but emphasized that they were “juicy.”

And now it seems as if Stefani has chosen to squeeze more drops out of that juice… or something.

“Nobody except for my parents, the people involved, and whoever they told [know what happened],” Gwen says in the latest issue of Cosmopolitan, adding mysteriously:

“Nobody would believe it if I could really say what happened. I went through months and months of torture.”

It’s very hard to believe that Stefani isn’t referencing the rumor affair Rossdale had with the couple’s nanny, right?

Her name is Mindy Mann and chatter about the rocker banging the help has been circulating for months.

Stefani and Rossdale went on to finalize their divorce in October 2015; they continue to coparent their three sons: Kingston, 10, Zuma, 7, and Apollo, 2.

And the former No Doubt singer has since moved on romantically, of course, hitting the sheets these days with Blake Shelton.

She tells the magazine that rumors of their relationship were out there long before anything actually happened.

All thanks to The Voice producers.

“We were laughing our heads off when we saw the blind auditions. I love NBC, but they for sure edited stuff to look like we were flirting,” Stefani told Cosmopolitan.

“They chose to run with that story before anything was even real. I hardly knew him. But it was like it was in the air — happening before it happened.”

Shelton himself had just split from Miranda Lambert when he got together with his co-star on the NBC singing competition.

“We were both having trust issues, as you would if you were us. It was like, ‘I have so many problems. How can I now be getting into another potentially huge problem? What am I doing?"” Stefani told Cosmo.

She then explained that a professional favor led to a personal connection when they collaborated on the track “Go Ahead and Break My Heart.”

“Blake wrote the song and sent it to me. He was like, ‘Help me finish it.’ I wrote a verse and sent it to him, but he was gone because he doesn’t live in L.A.

“He didn’t have WiFi, so he wasn’t answering me back! As soon as he came back to town, he brought his guitar over. We were like, ‘We wrote a song together! This is crazy!"”

Even crazier? Those two are now totally in love!

And Gavin Rossdale, if he really did cheat on Stefani with a nanny, is totally in our perpetual doghouse.

Miranda Lambert: Plotting Revenge on Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani?!

They say revenge is a dish best served cold.

If it weren’t for the fact that it totally mangles the metaphor and basically makes no damn sense at all, we would amend that to “revenge is a dish best served piping hot on the cover of a tabloid!”

That’s the new issue of Life & Style, and as you can see, Miranda is plotting some sort of vengeance against her ex and the new woman in his life.

Cue dramatic music and this dude:

And how will she have her revenge, you ask?

Sugar in their gas tanks?

Ordering a dozen pizzas to their house every day for the rest of their lives?

Launching a competing ska/pop band called Uncertainty?

The possibilities are endless, but it seems that Miranda subscribes to the theory that the best revenge is living well.

(Is it just us, or there a lot quotes about revenge?)

A source tells L&S that the rumors about Miranda being pregnant with Anderson East’s baby are 100% true, and she now feels that she’s “outdone her ex and his new love when it comes to romance, career, fans and, in the biggest bombshell of all, baby news,” 

Interesting fact: revenge babies grow up to be the most well-adjusted members of society.

Okay, we might’ve made that up.

While it’s certainly true that Lambert’s latest single is a hit, it would be tough to argue that she’s more popular or beloved by fans than Blake or Gwen.

But the source says she’s spot-on in her belief that it would drive Shelton nuts if she got knocked up by East:

“If [Miranda Lambert] starts a family with another man, it would have to make Blake’s blood boil,” claimed the source.

“His greatest wish was to have a baby with Miranda during their relationship. But now it’s Anderson by her side, and Miranda is thriving like never before. For Miranda, it’s the ultimate revenge at last.”

Meanwhile, it seems Shelton has yet to propose to Stefani for the simple reason that they’re relationship isn’t all smooth sailing these days.

“Blake and Gwen seem to be struggling on so many fronts. It really is a sweet revenge,” says the insider.

Somewhere, Miranda is stroking a cat and cackling like a Bond villain.

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton Expecting Twin Girls!?

Gwen Stefani has always wanted a girl.

When she found out that the sex of her third child was a boy, she posted an Instagram declaring herself the queen of the Rossdale-Stefani household.

Now, OK! Magazine believes that she and boyfriend Blake Shelton are pregnant with twin girls, and are so confident in their belief that they made it this week’s cover story.

“The buzz in their inner circle is that Gwen is four months pregnant, and that they’re expecting twins!” a source claims.

Stefani and Shelton, according to the story, “began researching fertility doctors and evaluating their options several months ago,” but Stefani, 46, was able to conceive “naturally.”

She’s apparently four months along, and when she told Shelton the news, he “teared up,” then “lost it” when she told him it was twin girls.

With the babies due “around Christmas,” OK! also claims that Shelton and Stefani already “wed in a supersecret ceremony.”

Meanwhile, back in the real world, Stefani went on Howard Stern yesterday and revealed how her relationship with Shelton grew.

“[Blake] was the most unlikely situation to ever happen,” Stefani said.

“I didn’t know him, but I got to know him on the set. When I came back to the show, I had this huge weight on me,” she explained, referring to her divorce from Gavin Rossdale after finding out he was sleeping with her childrens’ nanny.

“I wasn’t trying to start a relationship. I was just trying to not die. I think we started emailing here and there and then overtime [it became romantic].

“It was an incredible gift to be able to have a friend.”

Stefani’s rep confirmed that she and Shelton were officially a couple back in November, when the two were judges together on The Voice.  

Since then, they’ve become the weekly target of wedding and pregnancy speculation.

Gwen Stefani: Gavin Rossdale Almost Ruined My Life, But Look At Me Now!

Prior to her divorce from Gavin Rossdale, Gwen Stefani didn’t talk much about her personal life.

Things have changed for the Orange County native, who has gone (very) public with boyfriend, Blake Shelton.

Stefani covers the August issue of Harper’s Bazaar, and since high fashion is her version of lounge wear, it was no surprise to see page after page of the singer posing in gorgeous threads at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.

Stefani said she’s an open book, for the most part.  There are some things she needs to keep private because of her children, she explained.

Stefani has three sons with Rossdale – Kingston, 10, Zuma, 7 and Apollo, 2.

“As a famous person, you start to think,’I can’t say all that because I’ll embarrass them or hurt them in some way.’ And especially now because they can see everything and hear everything.

“But I’ve done nothing I’m ashamed of …” she said with a laugh.

“Well, we all have a few things we’re ashamed of.”

Stefani reflected back on her life up until now, which was filled with music, boyfriends and then her husband, whom she married in 2002.

Her youngest son was  “only 11 months old when everything happened,” Stefani explained, referring to an alleged affair between Rossdale and the couple’s nanny, Mindy Mann in February 2015.

“Everybody knows what happened next,” Stefani said.

“February 9,” she recalls. “I obviously know the date.

“It was the beginning of hell. Like six, seven, eight months of torture, trying to figure out this big secret.”

Though Stefani admitted she wanted to “tell everybody” what happened, she had to hold back so that her boys wouldn’t be embarrassed.

Stefani got back to work.  She joined, started to write songs for her album, This Is What The Truth Feels Like, and embarked on her romance with Shelton.

“What happened was praying,” Stefani said of coming back from what felt like the end of her world.

“That’s my childhood, that’s how I was raised. And I think I strayed from that. But you know when it gets that bad, you just get desperate? You’re on your knees. You’re like, ‘What do I do?’ You can’t even go to your parents and ask them what to do.”

The toughest part for Stefani is sharing custody with Rossdale.  Only spending half of her time with the boys is still hard on her.

“All I wanted my whole life was to have babies, be married, like what my parents have. Then I remember thinking,’There’s gotta be a reason for this.’ Of course you go through the ‘Why me?’ and feel sorry for yourself.

“But then I was like, ‘No, this happened to me already and I made something good out of it,’ and that was Tragic Kingdom.” 

We have a feeling good things are still to come.
