Hey baby, hey baby, hey!
Gwen Stefani gave her husband, Blake Shelton, an onstage shoutout over the weekend as the country singer “finally” attended No Doubt’s Las Vegas residency.
“Blake Shelton’s here!” the singer gushed to audience members at Sin City’s Sphere venue Saturday in an Instagram video shared by Shelton the following day.
After Stefani, 56, promised fans the concert was “gonna be good,” the clip cut to the country singer pointing to himself.
“That’s me!” he exclaimed to those around him.
Shelton, 49, sang along to the band’s 1995 hit “Just a Girl” later in the video, and ended the footage by posing in a new green No Doubt jacket.
He also shared a sweet moment with his fellow “Voice” coach, hugging her.
“So proud of my wife @gwenstefani and the @nodoubt guys for working their asses off and putting on this hell of a show,” Shelton told his followers in the caption, referencing bass player Tony Kanal, guitarist Tom Dumont and drummer Adrian Young.
“finally got a night off to see it,” he continued. “un-freakin-real.”
Stefani, who kicked off her group’s residency on May 6, re-posted her husband’s tribute via Instagram Stories.
When Shelton missed the band’s debut show earlier this month, he blamed his manager.
“My wife came to town. She’s here. I mean, she’s not here. She’s over there at the other venue,” he said during his own concert at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace.
“What kind of a d–khead books us the exact same nights every single night?” he added. “I think my manager did that. He’s here, isn’t he?”
Months prior, Shelton told People their performances would be “in direct competition.”
“I know there’ll be probably a little bit of trash talking. Whether we both sell out, there’s a big difference in selling out the Sphere and selling out Caesars, so she’ll have that over my head,” he quipped in January, dubbing their “not friendly competition” an “absolute ass-kicking.”
Shelton and Stefani have been married since July 2021.
