Blake Shelton took the stage at the newly-opened location of his bar, Ole Red, in Las Vegas, Nevada. Shelton marked the grand opening of his newest establishment on Tuesday evening (April 16), and included a special surprise guest in his performance.
“Now I’m officially on this stage doing my own concert for the first time,” Shelton said to the Vegas crowd as he raised a glass. He posted a reel on Instagram reflecting on some of the highlight moments as he celebrated the opening of Ole Red in Las Vegas. The performance also included a surprise appearance by Shelton’s wife, Gwen Stefani, following her highly-anticipated No Doubt reunion at Coachella and flying back to Nashville for a wedding before traveling to Vegas for the grand opening. The husband-and-wife duo performed their beloved duets, “Nobody but You” and “Happy Anywhere,” on stage together. Stefani also shared a video on her Instagram story from the wings as she watched her husband’s performance (and the “coolest girls at the club,” in the front row) while offstage.
Most recently, Shelton joined Stefani of “Purple Irises.” The couple released the collaboration earlier this year, and delivered the debut live performance at Stefani’s headlining Super Bowl LVIII TikTok Tailgate, which also took place in Vegas. They’ve since performed it on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Valentines Day, and in late February at the 2024 Country Radio Seminar (CRS) in Downtown Nashville, Tennessee.
The Las Vegas location of Ole Red joins previously-opened venues in addition to Tishomingo, Oklahoma; Orlando, Florida; Gatlinburg, Tennessee; Nashville, Tennessee, and the Nashville Airport. Ole Red’s official Instagram account marked, “Ole Red Las Vegas Grand Opening Night 1 ✔️ Y’all ready to do it again tomorrow?! 🐾”
