Oklahoma country music star Blake Shelton is featured in the Dec. 15 issue of Country Weekly magazine, currently on sale.

The Ada native and Tishomingo resident reflects on his hot new album, “Startin’ Fires,” his romance with fellow country star Miranda Lambert and more in the interview.

“There was a time or two that I wasn’t so sure I’d be making my fifth album right now,” Shelton says in the interview, according to a news release. “But I think those ups and downs taught me a lot. You see a lot of people come out and they’re huge, and then they just screw it all up.”

He also talks about writing and performing with Lambert, who also lives near Tishomingo. They co-wrote and performed the funny duet “Bare Skin Rug” on “Startin’ Fires.”

“Miranda and I are so honest with each other, and have been for so long, that we don’t hurt each other’s feelings anymore,” he says.

He also says ”Startin’ Fires” represents his best, and most personal, work to date, according to the release.

I’ll have a Q&A with Lambert, who is performing Friday at the Firelake Grand Casino in Shawnee, later in the week. Keep an eye out for that.
