Blake Shelton Finds Reactions To His ‘Karma’ Tweet ‘Funny’: ‘People Are Way Off The Mark’
Blake Shelton is setting the record straight about his cryptic Tweet. The country music superstar reckons fans are taking it out of context.
It's All About The Deeper Meaning
Last week, the singer tweeted an intentionally vague message about karma.
"Been taking the high road for a long time.. I almost gave up. But I can finally see something on the horizon up there!! Wait!! Could it be?! Yep!! It's karma!!" he wrote.
Fans immediately speculated that it was in reference to his ex, Miranda Lambert, and her very public relationship drama. However, the "I Lived It" singer says that is absolutely not the case.
In a Facebook Live interview with ET, he set the record straight once and for all.
"If it was meant for people to know exactly what it meant, it wouldn't have been so cryptic," he argued.
He Has No Time For Such Nonsense
As for people's increasingly high-pitched reactions, Shelton isn't too enthused, but he has been busy watching everybody struggle to interpret the meaning behind his tweet.
"It's been, actually, very entertaining to watch the world run with it and assume what they think it's about," he admitted.
The country superstar finds the reactions funny, especially as, according to him, everybody commenting on the situation is interpreting it incorrectly.
It Does Make A Certain Amount Of Sense
Shelton married country star Lambert for four years, with the two announcing their divorce in July 2015. He sparked up a romance with fellow Voice judge Gwen Stefani in November of that year.
The "karma" Tweet seems related to the news that Lambert had shacked up with married musician Evan Felker. Fans were quick to point out that the timing was a bit convenient, suggesting Shelton was calling out his ex.
"It was a personal thing that's in a small circle of my people and that's why it was written the way it was, and then people took it and make it into what they want to make it into, which I don't want any part of that," Shelton told Extra yesterday.
Although the country singer denies the meaning behind the tweet, sources close to him have confirmed that Shelton was referring to Lambert. One insider even claimed Shelton feels vindicated by the fact that Lambert married Turnpike Troubadours frontman Felker, who filed for divorce from his estranged wife just a few weeks after meeting Lambert for the first time.
She initially connected with Felker via text message, before his band opened on her February tour. Lambert's split from boyfriend Anderson East came out last month. Felker allegedly skipped his flight home after the tour to spend more time with Lambert.
Felker's estranged wife, Staci Nelson, alluded to the ongoing drama on social media last week with an Instagram Story about how difficult the past few days had been for her.
