For these viewers who’re craving a few of that “Hillbilly Bone” snark of their lives, I’ve received excellent news for you — Shelton is returning to TV this week, and he’ll even be reuniting with a few of his buddies from The Voice, when Barmageddon Season 2 premieres on USA Community.
Barmageddon, which options celebrities going through off in over-the-top bar video games, was created by Blake Shelton and Carson Daly after the 2 grew to become BFFs on The Voice. However the longtime host isn’t the one acquainted face the cowboy will see on the November 13 premiere. Kelly Clarkson shall be one of many featured celebrities, and I completely can’t wait to see her and Shelton buying and selling playful jabs on my display once more.
Followers beloved the feud between Kelly Clarkson and Blake Shelton on The Voice, and the trolling between the 2 real-life associates was fixed. NBC pulled out all of the stops for Blake Shelton’s ultimate episode — and deservedly so — however the Season 23 finale was additionally the final look of the American Idol champion, as she has since relocated to the East Coast. So whereas it appears like a return to The Voice will not be within the playing cards for her anytime quickly, she apparently had no qualms about making the journey to Nashville, Tennessee, to reunite along with her former colleague at his bar Ole Purple.
Sadly Kelly Clarkson gained’t be competing towards her ex-rival on the Barmageddon Season 2 premiere. She’ll as a substitute face off towards The Quick and the Livid franchise actress Michelle Rodriguez in bar video games that in Season 1 included punny and suggestive names like Drunken Axehole (axe-throwing), Simply the Tip (pool meets Pictionary), 4 Play (giant Join 4) and Break up Occurs (bowling).
I actually do miss each Blake Shelton and Kelly Clarkson on The Voice. That’s no shade to the cowboy’s substitute Reba McEntire or the remainder of the present coaches of The Voice — John Legend, Gwen Stefani and Niall Horan. However Shelton injected a sure power to the present, and his chemistry with Clarkson is one thing NBC hasn’t been capable of recreate. It’s not for lack of effort, as they appeared to check the waters of a rivalry between Legend and Horan, however it didn’t stick.
It was additionally enjoyable to see Blake Shelton’s relationship with Gwen Stefani develop on The Voice, and that’s one pairing Barmageddon followers will even get to see early in Season 2. In actual fact, in Episode 2, the husband and spouse will go head-to-head in competitors, as Carson Daly takes his common spot behind the bar. As a lot as followers miss Shelton on the singing competitors, it’s most likely not as a lot as his spouse, who returned to The Voice simply as her husband made his exit.
The “No Physique” singer will even face off towards Ice T and Lauren Alaina this season on Barmageddon, and different movie star contestants will embrace Jelly Roll, Boyz II Males, Rob Riggle and Nikki Glaser. First, although, it’s Kelly Clarkson vs. Michelle Rodriguez, so be sure you tune in at 11 p.m. ET Monday, November 13, on USA Community, and take a look at our 2023 TV schedule to see what different premieres are coming quickly.
