With the pandemic going on, most of us are doing our part to stop the virus from spreading. The CDC continues to advise the public to practice social detachment, which means that we currently spend much of our time at home without seeing our extended family or friends. For celebrities like Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani, quarantine is a little more difficult to perform, as they need to be on set to work or other business related projects, but the two are still doing what they can to stay (mostly) at home . In a new episode of the radio show Apple Music Party Barn Radio with Luke Bryan, Shelton revealed that Stefani is taking coronavirus precautions seriously – meaning he cannot see his friends.
While talking to Bryan, the country singer admitted that he has avoided his texts in an attempt to appease his bride. “She is very strong about this quarantine thing, which is great,” he explains. “She is the only person I can see like that, that’s it. No time to be with friends. “

But that’s what Shelton says next that we don’t like. “When you’re a proud and stubborn guy like me, text me back and say, ‘Man, Gwen won’t let me go.’ This is hard. It’s embarrassing. “Um, what ?! An adult man like Shelton must be able to turn down his friends without having to pull the ole line” my girlfriend won’t let me go out with the boys “- especially during a pandemic.
COVID-19 brought to light an intrinsically unique concept of men feeling as if their masculinity could be stripped away for wanting to protect themselves against a deadly growing virus. TBH, we don’t fully understand why this is one thing in the first place. Now, we all have to put our pride aside and accept the fact that the coronavirus is bigger than any of us.

And Shelton, there is nothing wrong with admitting to your friend that you feel more comfortable at home now – and you can do that without having to bring Stefani into it.
