Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are releasing a new breakup song together — but could this mean their connection is in trouble?
In a recent interview, the country star, 48, assured that the song is not any indication of their real-life relationship.
Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani posed on the red carpet together at Opry 100.
“It’s really no reflection of where Gwen and I are in our relationship, I hope,” Shelton told Access Hollywood backstage at Opry 100, which took place on Wednesday, March 19. “But it’s a bada-- country song and we wanted to do it.”
“Hangin’ On,” which has not yet been released, is about a couple that wants to break up but is trying to stay together. Shelton expressed that he chose the track because it pushes him and his wife vocally. “We’re at a point in our lives where we just want to do songs that we love,” he added.
