What Blake Shelton’s Latest Album Says About His Love for Gwen Stefani
Blake Shelton’s latest album Texoma Shore was released on Nov. 3. On his last album, many people expected him to address his divorce to Miranda Lambert, and he did. But now that he has moved on to having a serious relationship with Gwen Stefani, we had to wonder if she will be mentioned?
The answer is yes. In his first single, “I’ll Name The Dogs,” there are some pretty big nods to the couple’s relationship. So what will the rest of the album say? Here are seven things we know about the album and what it says about his love for Gwen Stefani.
1. In ‘Turnin’ Me On,’ he sings his love for Gwen Stefani’s red lipstick
Gwen Stefani has been rocking red lipstick for decades, and now it’s getting a love song. On Shelton’s album, there is a song called “Turnin’ Me On” — and the lyrics describe a woman that sounds just like his famous girlfriend.
Knows how to set me on fire, she’s always holdin’ the match / And when my body’s beside hers, there ain’t no turnin’ back / She’s Revlon red in the blackest night, lighting up the room in the world / Just like she’s turnin’ me on
The specific dropping of “Revlon red” is, of course, referring to the singer who has been the face of Revlon in advertisements. The song pretty much talks about how much the singer turns him on with other lyrics like, “Knows what she’s doing with a single touch.”
Texoma Shore is full of references to the pop star, and it even the name has a secret meaning referring to their time together.
