Warner Music NashvilleBlake Shelton found out about his three CMA nominations during a phone call from wife, Miranda Lambert, who got a leading nine nods. When Miranda told Blake she’d tied her own record for the most nominations of any woman in CMA history, Blake could tell she seemed a little embarrassed about her good fortune.
He tells People, “If it was anybody else, she probably wouldn’t even talk about it, but with me she’s pretty excited about it.”
Blake is also excited to see his former team members from The Voice, The Swon Brothers, get a Duo of the Year nomination.
He says, “They’ve worked really hard and to see them capitalize on the opportunity is just so gratifying.”
