Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani performed their new love duet “Nobody But You” live for the first time at the 2020 Grammy Awards.
Shelton hit the stage first, singing a solo piece with a guitar in hand. Stefani then joined the country singer halfway through, walking out in a sheer white ballgown with an embellished Queen of Hearts-theme corset and matching headband.
Shelton and Stefani showed off their love for each other during the romantic performance, as they faced each other while staring at each other’s eyes, as they sang. At one moment, Stefani held Shelton’s hand as they finished singing their duet.
Earlier in the night, the couple joked with Ryan Seacrest on the E! red carpet, that her embroidered mini dress was a tribute to “Blake Shelton” and also confirmed that the love song was not originally written as a duet.
“But once we listened to it, we realized it’s actually a perfect duet, especially for us — the lyrics of the song just fit our story perfectly,” Shelton said. “Believe it or not … we were in the gym, I was watching her work out, listening to the song and it was like, ‘Wait a minute. You need to sing on this song with me’.”
“It just all came together,” he added.
Despite the song not being a duet originally, it doesn’t mean the couple plans to make an album together in the future. “I don’t think so,” the country singer said.
“I don’t think so either, but we have done a lot of music together, actually,” added Stefani. “We wrote two songs together, that’s a lot. Because he never [duets]. He’s sharing his talent with me!”
As for their pre-performance nerves, the couple said they weren’t too bad.
“We [sing together] all the time,” Shelton said. “We sing at the house. Music is such a part of our everyday life anyway together, so performing here — it’s the Grammys, so you’re nervous about that, but the actual performing together is just what we do.”
