Blake Shelton—Twitter’s Humorous Hunk
It had to happen sooner or later. The emergence of an outspoken, no-holds-barred, 140 character dialog from a country music artist—Tweets unleashed.
That is exactly what seems to be happening over at @Blakeshelton, a verified account. In fact, Shelton’s feed is turning into an amusing and unique entertainment channel that might appropriately be rated NSFW (not safe for work).
A cast of characters including love interest Miranda Lambert, artists Craig Morgan, David Nail and Chuck Wicks and others regularly weigh in as well as hundreds of Shelton’s 28,450 followers. But don’t get the tweeter mad or you’ll suffer the consequences of getting blocked, which means you can no longer follow the show.
Fans write in and Blake answers….on Twitter it appears with the question first and Blake’s response at the end…
[Fan]Just did Crook and Chase! It was just like I imagined as kid! (via @davidnail)[Blake’s Answer] Wow! I used to imagine doing Crook but never Chase!!!!

Recently a new character, @Blakesho arrived on the scene and got Miranda fired up enough to tweet her followers, “Hey my tweets….@BlakesHo is hittin on my guy on twitter. I will take the high road but I expect yall have my back….it’s probably a dude.”
Now it appears that @Blakesho has exited from Twitter, account closed. Lambert, however, talks about “her man” often with Tweets like:
Blake should win sexiest tweeter. I like the bad boy edge! Plus he’s already the sexiest man in country. If u don’t know that just ask him!
Oh my god!!! Miranda just paid for something!!! (via @blakeshelton) oh my god, Blake spelled something right!!
I love when bikini’s are half off….. (via @blakeshelton)what a perv! I told him my bikini was on sale half price. Just clearing the air!
Chuck Wicks chimes in: @blakeshelton dude! I just got a Twitter from a “Blake blocker”..what r u doing to these people!!! Ha
Shelton is No. 13 on the MusicRow Country Artist Twitter chart (7/30) but his numbers are increasing rapidly showing a robust 12% increase over the last seven days. His CD Startin’ Fires which has sold 167,379 units in 34 weeks has climbed over the last three weeks from No. 36 to No. 31. One not-so-funny detail is the lack of a digital track on the Top 200 list. Regardless, it will be enlightening to see if Shelton’s bad boy antics leverage sales.

Without a doubt, Blake is the funniest, wittiest tweeter out there. Can be crude at times but so funny.
Ashton, Rainn Wilson, John Mayer..have nothing on him.
He really should have his on show:)
I think he’s boring, same old stuff every day. Come to think of it, same old stuff every 15 minutes.
Blake is hilarious! He is the only reason I have a twitter account!
Blake is hilarious. He’s the reason i have twitter. He keeps me entertained all day long.
Blake is witty and full of spunk. Please give him a show of his own. Blake you rule!!!!!
I think Blake’s tweets are rude, crude and immature. If his goal is to appear as a country yokel, mission accomplished. He might be gaining Twitter fans, but he’s losing some of his real fans, me included. What a disappointment.
I LOVE Blake!! He’s honest, funny and entertaining…what more could you ask for! I’ve twittered him a few times, but I get no response…maybe cuz I’m a canuck(canadian) LOL I hope not..cuz we love him here!! 🙂
i’m sure you are a nut like always.never know what you’re going to say, but i like that about you.spontaneous!!!
I have been a huge Blake fan since his first CD. I only opened a twitter account to follow Blake and it has been great. He knows how to have fun, everyone should have some fun sometimes. People should not take him so seriously, he doesn’t, just let him make you laugh! He makes me laugh everyday and I look forward to his Tweets. I love his humor and cant say enough about his music. Total package!
I recently became a country “convert” mainly cause of Blake and as for his remarks he’s an entertainer cant read a tweet without a chuckle
Haha Im on this.. Blake tweeted to me.. thats soo funny! Mine is the cats hide one. 🙂
DD,
You are an idiot.
Thank you, Bill
