39 year old Shelton said in an interview on CMT's ‘Hot 20 Countdown’ over the weekend: “I'm not in rehab. I have to pick up a magazine every now and then to see what my alter ego, I guess, [is doing].”
Shelton and Lambert (31) announced their divorce after four years of marriage in late July this year, saying to Us Weekly at the time: This is not the future we envisioned, and it is with heavy hearts that we move forward separately.” In the aftermath of this, rumours have been abounding that Shelton is in a seriously bad way, with reports even emerging that he was battling a drinking problem after an innocuous joke at a Vegas show.

The best album of the year? The reviewers think so.
Miranda Lambert naming her new album Platinum might turn out to be a self fulfilling prophesy. Not only is the record, which came out on Tuesday, already on top of the iTunes sales chart, the critics are in love as well. Lambert’s strength has always been in her clever lyrics, her fiery sound and, well, her sass. Fans will be happy to hear that, despite her being a married woman now, the sass is still strong with this one.
The new record shows a maturity that really suits Lambert, say reviewers.
Says Jamieson Cox of TIME Magazine: “Platinum doesn’t reinvent the wheel in any sense, but it doubles down on the qualities that have helped Lambert become one of country’s most reliable stars: broad, plain-spoken feminism, rousing choruses that split the difference between archetypal country and contemporary pop-rock, and frank, funny, fully realized depictions of the protagonist at the heart of these songs.

There's no marriage trouble and no alien babies, either. Or so she says.
Miranda Lambert has a new album to promote. Platinum comes out on Tuesday, so the country singer is currently doing the obligatory press rounds and digging deep into her personal life in the process. In one interview, Lambert tells USA Today all about her marriage to Blake Shelton and how the couple deal with life in the spotlight.
"Even if it's people you know, sometimes you need to cement it," Lambert says. "It's just like, 'No one come over; we're having us-time for a second.' We haven't seen each other, and we need to be like, 'Hey, how was the last five days?' It just gets too crowded sometimes."
Lambert collaborated with Carrie Underwood on one song off Platinum.
