INSPIRATIONAL AND EXCITING

"To be on a song that goes number one in a genre that I have no business being part of, twice, and now up for these awards, it's pretty monumental and exciting and unexpected," Stefani told DeGeneres.

For her work with Shelton, Stefani earned her first ACM nomination last month. In October, the couple was given the 2020 CMT Music Award for best collaborative video for the song.

SHE CONTINUES TO LEARN

MANNING THE HOUSE

Stefani and Shelton split their time between their enormous Los Angeles pad and Shelton's Oklahoma country house. For a city dweller like Stefani, it was different from being quarantined on a ranch.

The "Hollaback Girl" singer said to DeGeneres that she is caring for chores such as cooking, cleaning, homeschooling, and doing laundry while also managing the household.
