Brad & Blake Exchange Tour Pranks

This week’s co-host Blake Shelton is on the road this summer with Brad Paisley.  Brad is a well-known practical joker, and so is Blake.  So what happens when you get these two together?  Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton asked Blake: “Everybody asks me about this, and the only thing that’s happened so far is on my birthday, and this was probably my fault.  In our merch booth we have these shorts that are so stupid that say ‘Kiss My Country Ass’ on them.  So he got some guy that looks like he hasn’t done a day’s work in ten years to come out with those shorts on, and it was pretty gross, cause that’s all he had on.  Normally I don’t pull pranks.  I’m more of a guy who, and I just did this the other day, and it was the highlight of my year so far.  I tripped and pushed him and tripped him on stage, and he hit the ground, and I stood over him laughing.  That’s how mature I am.”

 

When Brad was on the show, he told Lon there might be something special for Blake when the tour comes to Chicago in August.  Blake responded: “I may come down with the flu that day.  He has an enormous screen behind him that’s basically his toy.  Every night I go out to sing “Don’t Drink The Water” with him, and I’ll look up and he’s superimposed my head on something, me in one of those banana-hammocks, and you can’t get him back, because he’s the Wizard of Oz, and you’re in his world.  But I’ve had more fun with that than I thought I’d have.  He gives me that look when I come out, like ‘Don’t trip me, don’t kiss me, because you’re gonna make me humiliate you even more.'”
