Gwen Stefani talks about first red carpet appearance alongside Blake Shelton: ‘That melts me’

Gwen Stefani became a little emotional while discussing her first red carpet appearance alongside Blake Shelton. 

Kelly Clarkson showed the 53-year-old singer-songwriter a photo of Stefani in a gorgeous red gown from the Vanity Fair Oscar party in February 2016. She then asked Gwen what ‘occasion’ she wore the garment for. 

‘That was my first public date with Blake Shelton,’ she revealed to the audience which shrieked out their enjoyment. 

Clarkson said she had not realized that but told her how much she loved the gown. 

Stefani continued, ‘It was the Oscars Vanity Fair party. I think I played at the party and then we went out that night.’ 

To make it even more special, the Hollaback Girl singer admitted that Shelton ‘never does red carpets’ but made an exception for her.

Clarkson and Stefani then discussed another gown Stefani wore to the Met Ball back in May of this year. 

The dress was made by Vera Wang, and Stefani was quick to shower praise on the 73-year-old designer. 

‘She’s just so talented,’ Stefani said. ‘Vera’s been doing it for so long, and so to be able to work with her it was just so amazing.’ 

The No Doubt star said Vera’s original sketch looked nearly identical to the finished product, and she was blown away at seeing the dress really come to life.
