Blake Shelton Misses Gwen Stefani’s Sphere Debut, Jokes About Manager After Schedule Clash

The clash of residencies shows how parallel Vegas runs complicate public support.

Overview

  • Selton, whose Colosseum residency opened Wednesday, skipped Stefani’s No Doubt debut at Sphere because both shows were booked the same night.
  • During his Caesars Palace set, he joked that manager Narvel Blackstock put them on identical dates and called the move a “d***head” decision.
  • Stefani posted a video of a large bouquet from him with a note wishing her luck, signaling support despite the conflict.
  • No Doubt’s Sphere run covers 18 shows through mid-June, and Stefani made history there as the venue’s first female headliner.
  • His Vegas dates run through May 24, then CMA Fest on June 5 and Carolina Country Music Fest on June 6 could curb chances to attend, as coverage also revisits split rumors he rejected in January.
