<p id=”par-7_50″>“I’ve never had that kind of experience with anybody,” Shelton said, per <a target=”_blank” href=”https://ew.com/article/2011/07/12/miranda-lambert-vh1-behind-the-music-exclusive-video/” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Entertainment Weekly.</a> “I was a married guy, you know? Standing up there and singing with somebody and going, ‘Man, this shouldn’t be happening.’ Looking back on that, I was falling in love with her, right there on stage.”</p>

<p id=”par-8_8″>Lambert said their chemistry felt effortless and immediate.</p>

<p id=”par-9_21″>“He’s hilarious,” Lambert said. “We had instant chemistry, just like messing with each other, and he’s real easy to be around.”</p>

<p id=”par-10_15″>Still, she knew that they shouldn’t pursue anything. He was married and she was engaged.</p>

<p id=”par-11_57″>“I knew better, like, this is off-limits … I didn’t know what to do with it, it was, like, my first duet with some other country star, and I didn’t know if it was just initial butterflies because of that,” she said, adding, “I don’t know what it was. It was just this draw to each other.”</p>

They’re totally competitive, and there’s no love lost, and they don’t want any awkward confrontations. Some might say they don’t want the other to steal their spotlight.”</p>
