布雷克·谢尔顿被《人物》杂志评为“在世最性感男士”,成为首位获此头衔的美国乡村歌手,这位《美国之声》的评委终于摆脱了对自己外表的羞怯。

41岁的谢尔顿日前表示:“我丑了一辈子了,如果能性感一年,我接受!”
Oklahoma native Shelton spent a decade in country music before his popularity surged in 2011 as the wise-cracking judge and mentor to aspiring singers on reality talent competition "The Voice".
来自俄克拉荷马州的谢尔顿在乡村音乐界摸爬滚打十年后,于2011年凭借在真人选秀节目《美国之声》中为追梦的参赛歌手担任评委及导师时风趣幽默的表现而人气大涨。

"I'm not going to treat this like Hugh Jackman or one of those guys who's humble about it. People are going to hate me over this," Shelton joked.
谢尔顿开玩笑称:“我不会像休·杰克曼或者是那些很谦逊的人那样来看待这件事。人们会因为这件事而憎恨我!”
