Somebody’s going to have a great day if they stumble on to this ring.” Blake says he only got to be on ‘The Voice’ because Reba McEntire turned the spot down. Had he not taken the job he may have never met Gwen Stefani
Luke Combs tells Music Mayhem magazine that a television and a couch were the best gifts he ever received from his parents. “My parents got me my own television when I was probably like 13.

You don’t know who this guy is?’ Eventually, he showed his race pass and was let in…in response the race course put up a giant sign with Dale Jr’s picture and said he was allowed access to the course
