Find Out Why Gwen Stefani Calls Her Duet With Blake Shelton โ€˜Shockingโ€™

NBC

When it was announced that Blake Shelton recorded a duet with Gwen Stefani on his new album If Iโ€™m Honest, no one was more surprised than Stefani, herself.

Entertainment Tonightโ€˜s Katie Krause spoke with Stefani about their duet on the red carpet at KIIS FMโ€™s Wango Tango over the weekend.

Stefaniโ€™s goal with her new album was to make something good out of something bad: her divorce. While she was going through a rough spot in her life, she and Shelton made a connection and began dating.

Their fears and insecurities of a new relationship were brought to life in their collaboration โ€œGo Ahead and Break My Heartโ€, which they premiered last week and performed live on The Voice.

โ€œAnytime Iโ€™ve ever collaborated with anyone, itโ€™s always my favorite,โ€ she admitted. โ€œBut to do something with him โ€” because heโ€™s so talented and comes from such a different world โ€” to make music together, it was just so shocking!โ€

The two singersโ€™ genres could not be more different, but somehow, they found a happy medium and produced a meaningful song, and itโ€™s super catchy as well!
