The mom of three praised the "Austin" hitmaker stating "no one" is more genuine than him and that he is the epitome of country music. All Shelton ever wanted to do in his life was to sing country music, and she enumerated what he had achieved within his decades-long career, including several No.1 singles and his long stint on "The Voice."

Stefani described Shelton as a "rare human being," who remains his true self despite all he has accomplished over the years. As he stepped on the podium following his wife's introduction, Shelton praised Stefani, saying: "I kind of stopped checking things off my list of great accomplishments in my life when I married Gwen, so this is just icing on the cake."
