The “Play It Again” singer replied, “I am better looking than Blake Shelton, and should have won PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man.” The interviewer responded, “Those are fighting words.” To which, the singer replied, “I can die on that hill.”
Fans had interesting reactions to this on X. One fan commented, “How can someone not LOVE LUKE?” A second fan wrote, “He would be cool to have a beer with.” A third fan penned, “You are! Both handsome but you are.” Finally, one fan sarcastically remarked, “is this…..not Blake Shelton?”
Fans know that Shelton and Bryan share a long-standing friendship and bromance, often taking playful jabs at each other. Most recently, in March, Bryan shared a funny video explaining the real meaning behind “BS Free.” He explained that the lyrics “BS-free” meant “Blake Shelton-free.” Not only that, Bryan tagged the “Some Beach” singer in the caption as well.
Previously, Shelton hilariously called out a fan for wearing a Bryan T-shirt at one of his shows. He remarked with a smile, “You come to my show wearing Luke Bryan s**t? What’s the matter with you? That guy’s an idiot.”
