In a lively celebration of the New Year, Blake Shelton rocked Nashville's Big Bash with his unforgettable presence.

The 47-year-old country music superstar stepped onto the stage alongside the legendary Trace Adkins, delivering a stunning performance that brought the crowd to their feet.

They showcased the electrifying tune "Hillbilly Bone" by Blake in their repertoire, a collaborative masterpiece that highlighted Trace's remarkable talents. Trace's ensemble seamlessly matched the attire of The Voice coach.

The country singers graced the stage in a harmonious display reminiscent of two long-lost comrades, enthralling the audience with their captivating performance.

However, opinions among fans varied considerably regarding this reunion. While some were overjoyed to see the duo's collaboration, regardless of the circumstances, others seethed with anger, feeling deceived by the promise of a live show that turned out to be prerecorded.

Not Live

Witnessing Blake's supposedly "live" performance, people on X, previously called Twitter, wasted no time highlighting that it had been prerecorded.

Despite the performance being captured before New Year's Eve, Blake and Trace took to the stage in the presence of a live audience during the rendition.

An astute observation by a dedicated fan revealed that Blake had an upcoming performance at the WinStar World Casino and Resort to ring in the New Year. Positioned at the junction of Oklahoma and Texas, this renowned destination is a considerable distance from the bustling city of Nashville.

According to TMZ, critics raised an interesting question about Blake Shelton's presence in Nashville for the #CBSNashvilleNYE event.

"How's Blake Shelton 'live' in Nashville for #CBSNashvilleNYE when he's about to go on stage at

@WinStarWorld in 5min? He must have one fast ass tour bus," one person tweeted.

Another said, "He must have one fast-a-- tour bus!"

A Disappointing Duet

The recent CBS Nashville New Year's Eve performance has also disappointed many in a surprising turn of events.

Viewers expressed their dissatisfaction with the collaboration between Thomas Rhett and Blake Shelton, deeming it less than stellar. One individual even went as far as to label it an embarrassment to the country music genre.

"#CBSNashvilleNYE WTF is this? Thomas Rhett and Blake Shelton sound like absolute a--."

Another said, "Their duet 'Hell Right' however, is one of the dumbest songs I've ever heard."
