Blake Shelton knows how to throw a party — and when it comes to celebrating his 30th No.1 single, he did it the only way he knows how: big, bold, and Texas-style.
Just days ahead of the ACM Awards, the country music superstar gathered friends, fans, and industry insiders deep in the heart of the Lone Star State to celebrate the chart-topping success of his latest smash hit, “Texas.” The event, full of Southern charm, live music, and heartfelt toasts, marked not only his newest No.1 but an epic career milestone — 30 No.1 hits on the country charts.
“To be standing here in Texas, celebrating a song called ‘Texas’ going No.1 — and realizing it’s my 30th — that’s just wild,” Blake told the crowd. “I’ve been one of the lucky ones. And I don’t take it for granted, not for a second.”
The celebration was equal parts rowdy and reflective, with Blake performing a few fan favorites and thanking the songwriters, producers, and fans who’ve stuck with him through every chapter of his two-decade career.
From his breakout hit “Austin” to this latest anthem, Shelton has remained one of country music’s most enduring and beloved figures. His 30th No.1 cements his place among the genre’s most successful hitmakers — a feat few artists ever achieve.
The timing of the celebration — just ahead of the Academy of Country Music Awards — added an extra layer of excitement, with speculation swirling that Blake may have even more surprises in store during the ceremony.
For now, though, it’s all about raising a glass to “Texas,” to 30 unforgettable chart-toppers, and to Blake Shelton’s undeniable legacy as a country music giant.
