Luke Bryan Playfully Roasts Blake Shelton: A Look at Their Hilarious Friendship and Friendly Rivalry

Luke Bryan recently made a playful jab at his friend Blake Shelton during an episode of the video series Are Ya'll Okay? Bryan humorously claimed that he is better looking than Shelton and should have won PEOPLE's sexiest man title. The two country stars have a history of friendly banter, with Bryan even explaining the lyrics of his song "Word on the Street" to diss Shelton. Bryan also jokingly called out a fan for wearing a Luke Bryan T-shirt at one of Shelton's shows. Despite their playful rivalry, Bryan admitted in an interview that staying ahead of Shelton in the number of No. 1 hit songs motivates him to keep going in the country music industry. At the time of the interview, Bryan had 32 No. 1 hits compared to Shelton's 30. Shelton was named PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive in 2017, prompting Bryan to humorously photoshop himself onto the cover and challenge Shelton in a lighthearted manner.
