Country's Sexiest Men 2014

BLAKE SHELTON

AGE: 37

MARRIED TO MIRANDA LAMBERT

Don’t let his tweets fool you. From his micromissives, Shelton could be dismissed as a funny but foul-mouthed, flirtatious, cat-hating drunk. While there’s an element of truth to that cheeky image (of wife Miranda’s three cats, he says, “I don’t think they like me any more than I like them”), it belies the surprisingly sober, sensitive – and smitten – singer beneath the surface. A homebody who too rarely has time at the Oklahoma home he shares with Lambert, Shelton said his plans for celebrating their third wedding anniversary last month were surprisingly simple: “Our ideal day is actually nothing,” he says. “When we’re at home, she’s really gotten into English-style horseback riding, and I still love farming and gardening. I’m the worst when it comes to pulling out the romance, but we have fun when we’re together at home.” And, if all else fails, he jokes, “I know the way to her heart and that’s a bottle of vodka!”
