Garth Brooks: ‘Blake Shelton Is The Nicest Guy On The Planet’
Garth Brooks played Boise State University this weekend and Blake Shelton joined him on stage for their first live performance of their duet “Dive Bar.”
Garth said of Blake, “If you’re lucky in this business, someone’s going to call you the nicest guy on the planet. The nicest guy on the planet – Blake Shelton. This guy has said ‘yes’ to everything. Sweetest guy. No ego whatsoever. And talented. He’s the best guy on the planet.”
The live performance of the duet was recorded live and captured on camera for a later release.
Shelton not only sang “Dive Bar” with Garth – he treated the crowd to his #1 hit, “God’s Country.”
Brooks posted over the weekend, “Two okies in a 40,000 seat #DiveBar!!! Boise, you and @BlakeShelton are THE BEST! love, g.”
