Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani Perform Together on His Birthday – Watch!

Blake Shelton celebrated his  40th Birthday at Country Jam in Grand Junction, CO this weekend and he had a huge surprise for the crowd! His girlfriend Gwen Stefani came out to perform their duet “Go Ahead And Break My Heart” from Shelton’s new album If I’m Honest.

Afterward, Shelton told the crowd:

“This is fun! Y’all have been so freakin’ nice to me on my 40th birthday and I guess if I had one birthday wish for me personally … I wish I could rock. I wish I was one of those type of artists that could rock but I can’t. For my birthday I wish I could hear an artist who could rock, that’s my birthday wish.”

The crowd was also treated to Stefani singing her band No Doubt’s hit song “Hella Good.” Earlier in the day Shelton had revealed in his meet and greet line that Stefani had decorated his plane for his birthday (birthday goals). Shelton and Stefani have not been shy about their new relationship since confirming it on November 4th, 2015. They’ve been spotted together numerous times, performed on The Voice together, are featured on each other’s social media and this past weekend changed their twitter profile pictures to pictures of each other (the new Facebook official?).

As seen on Stefani’s snap chat she gave Shelton a guitar shaped birthday cake!

Gallery: Katie Armiger Performs at CMA Fest

CMA Fest  is pretty much the best week(end) of the year. There is no other festival that has the magnitude of Country Artists involved. If you are a Country Music Artist, chances are you are doing something at CMA Fest. The other wonderful part about that glorious weekend is that it’s sometimes the only chance you have to see some of your favorite artists. A lot of them aren’t able to travel to every city or aren’t on a major tour, so seeing them is rare. That’s why every year, going to CMA Fest is a must!

Thankfully, Variety Beat was able to catch up with one of our favorite Female Country Artists, Katie Armiger last month and see her again at CMA Fest! Armiger had three performances during the weekend and we were able to be at two of them!

Armiger performed at the Willie Nelson & Friends Museum and even paid tribute to Nelson by performing “Always On My Mind.”
