Blake Shelton & CBS tried to pull a fast one. The network promised the fans explosive live performances as a part of its New Year's Eve program. It turns out they aired pre-recorded performances.
Blake Shelton and CBS left the fans confused on New Year’s Eve when Blake Shelton marked his presence at two places at the same time.
On one end, Blake Shelton was belting out Hillybilly's Bone and Hell Right along with Trace Adkins during CBS’ New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash. On the flip side, he was also leading a live performance at Winstar Casino in Oklahoma at the same time. Fans wondered which one of Blake Shelton’s two performances was actually live and once they figured it out, they were left fuming, to say the least.
