When Blake Shelton hits the road again in 2012, he will be supporting his seventh major album Red River Blue. Since hitting the scene with a #1 debut single "Austin," Shelton has enjoyed a great deal of success and built a sizable fan base. Thing is, it could've been even bigger if his original (and now dissolved) first label allowed him to record his intended first song "I Wanna Talk About Me," but after the label passed on its release for him the polarizing Toby Keith recorded that one to help launch his own career.

Blake Shelton on Tour
Shelton is affectionately known by many country fans as "Mr. Miranda Lambert" after marrying his fellow country star in 2011 following a five year courtship. Though it's true that his wife has quite the resume of her own - including two #1 singles from her previous album - Shelton's accomplishments in the country music industry give him enough moxie to laugh off the jokes and take them in stride.

Shining alongside Lambert, Shelton's fanbase has clearly grown since their union and given his talented work an extra boost in sales. His single "Honey Bee" was released in July and certified gold in only seven weeks, the fastest ever recorded for a male country artisit. He has also become a multimedia personality, coaching alongside Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine on NBC's hit series, "The Voice."
