Adam Levine spoke out this week to reveal that he’s still waiting for an invitation to perform at the wedding of his good friends Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani.
“They can’t afford me,” Levine joked while appearing on SiriusXM’s “The Morning Mash Up.” “No, yeah, shoot, they haven’t asked me yet. …I was just texting with them. I love them so much… They’re the best. I would love to. I’d be honored.”
Levine went on to add that he does not have high hopes for being the first pick, saying, “They won’t ask me though. They’ll probably get like Luke Bryan or something.”
Back in December, Shelton claimed to late night host Seth Meyers that Levine was on the shortlist to perform at his wedding.
“I’ve kind of decided that I’ve been doing this a long time now and I’ve got a lot of favors out there,” Shelton said at the time. “He may not like it, but Adam Levine’s gonna have to get the band together and come and play our wedding.”
Levine referenced this comment in his new interview, saying, “They’re talking about marriage and he’s like, ‘Yeah, I’m gonna get Adam Levine to come play, he doesn’t know it yet,’ and I’m like sitting in bed eating popcorn and I’m like, ‘Man, f**k you, I’m not gonna play at your wedding.'”
Shelton and Stefani became engaged back in October after five years of dating. They had met on the set of their show “The Voice,” which Levine appeared on as well at the time. Earlier this month, Shelton opened up about his proposal to Stefani.
“It’s kind of a blur, honestly,” Shelton told Access. “I remember after I asked her, there was some crying and things and Gwen’s oldest son, Kingston, was sitting right next to us when this happened.”
“And Gwen in one moment said, ‘Wait a minute, did I answer you? Did I say yes out loud?’ And even I was wondering,” Shelton recalled. “And Kingston said, ‘Mom, yeah you did. I heard you say ‘Yes,’ you did.’”
“I don’t know how long it took, but that’s how it happened,” he added.
