Blake Shelton wants Dolly Parton and Beyoncé to take the stage at his newly-opened bar in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The country superstar marked the grand opening of the new Ole Red location in Las Vegas earlier this month. Shelton took the stage to perform, and introduced wife Gwen Stefani as a surprise guest during the show, shortly after she reunited with No Doubt at Coachella. The husband-and-wife duo delivered renditions of two of their hit duets, âNobody but Youâ and âHappy Anywhere.â Their most recent collaboration is âPurple Irises,â which made its debut earlier this year.
âIt really does feel like youâve stepped in through a portal and youâre in Nashville when you come through the doors,â Shelton said in an interview on CBS Mornings as he spoke about his Las Vegas venue and his romance with Stefani. When Entertainment Tonightâs Cassie DiLaura asked which artists he would want to perform at Ole Red in Las Vegas, Shelton quickly responded: âDolly would be great. I was hoping to get BeyoncĂ© to do a little something. If she wants to make it in the country music industry, and I think she must, it ainât happening âtil she plays Ole Red.â
The Las Vegas venue is the latest Ole Red location, following those in Tishomingo, Oklahoma; Orlando, Florida; Gatlinburg, Tennessee; Nashville, Tennessee, and the Nashville Airport.Â
