Gwen Stefani Calls Blake Shelton ‘Hot,’ Plus Miranda Lambert’s Reaction

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have been rumored to be dating ever since Season 9 of NBC’s The Voice started. The recent divorcees have been seen flirting on and off the show, causing some fans to wonder what’s really going on.

Well, Gwen Stefani is kind of addressing those Blake Shelton dating rumors yet again. It’s kind of amazing that the No Doubt singer hasn’t gotten sick of hearing the same questions over and over again. When Ryan Seacrest asked Stefani about them on his radio show, she joked that it was NBC’s idea to put two recently divorced people on the reality show at the same time. The “Used to Love You” singer wasn’t going to admit the rumors, but she did admit that Shelton is good to look at.

“I’m not going to answer that right now, Ryan. But I think that he’s hot, don’t you? But to be super honest, it’s kind of crazy that we both went through the same thing at the same time.”

Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale ended split in August after 13 years of marriage and 10 years of dating. The two just recently reached a divorce settlement. Meanwhile, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert ended their four-year marriage back in July.

“There’s been so many people that I’ve been gotten so much comfort from, just people coming to me and telling me their story about, like, ‘When I was little…’ Not confiding but sharing, which has just helped me to see things from a different perspective and move forward.”

The dating rumors picked up again when Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton were seen attending two parties over the Halloween weekend. Not to mention, Stefani wore a sexy cowgirl costume while Shelton wore a Mexican Cobija Blanket, which received some backlash. That night Stefani and Shelton attended George Clooney’s bash, and then attended Maroon 5’s Halloween party. Sometime during the night, they also attended Jared Leto’s private party in the Hollywood Hills.

In photos obtained by E! News, Blake had his arms wrapped around Gwen’s waist. In another photo, the girl rocker looked up at the country crooner adoringly.

So, what does Miranda Lambert thinking about the dating rumors surrounding her ex-husband and the “Harajuku Lovers” singer? There appears to be conflicting reports about the country singer’s reaction. According to E! News, Lambert is “not surprised” to hear that Stefani and Shelton are dating.

The alleged insider said that the singer is taking the time from her divorce to reflect on herself and her music career.

“Miranda is at a point in her life where she is really focusing on herself and her music. This is a new chapter for her to create new relationships and really move on. Miranda has been going through many personal changes over the past few months, but it’s all for the better.”

During her time to herself, Lambert has caught wind of the Stefani and Shelton dating rumors that have been circulating for the past few months. The “Little Red Wagon” singer is not shocked because she knows her relationship with Shelton was already at its wits end, and is well aware that he was very flirtatious with Stefani on the set of The Voice.

“She was not surprised to hear of the romance between Blake and Gwen. They were always pretty flirty. Miranda and Blake were on the rocks on and off and knew that this could always be a possibility.”

But another report on the Hollywood Life claims that Lambert is “shocked” to learn that Shelton has already moved on while she’s still recovering from their divorce. The alleged insider added: “How could she not feel just a tad bit jealous? Gwen is absolutely gorgeous and Blake appears to be completely smitten with her.”

While Miranda is surprised to hear about the co-hosts dating, she is not surprised by their amazing chemistry.

“Miranda could tell by watching them on the show that they had a certain chemistry, but she never knew it would develop into such a close relationship so fast.”

It looks like Miranda Lambert’s reaction is all hearsay and speculation at the moment. The singer has been keeping mum about her divorce, especially on social media. The last time that Lambert hinted towards having heartbreak was in her Instagram post, which read: “Protect Yo Heart.”
