Fans Left Guessing After Blake Shelton’s Cryptic Orange Post
Blake Shelton has left his fans scratching their heads after posting a mysterious orange square on Instagram with no caption. The post, shared on March 11, has sparked a flurry of theories and confusion among his followers, with no clear consensus on what the image could mean.
Some fans thought the post was a playful nod to the University of Tennessee’s colors, commenting with “Go Vols 🍊” to show their support. Others speculated that the orange might be a reference to hunting gear, with one fan asking, “What we huntin? #camoorange.”
Theories didn’t stop there. A number of fans linked the post to R&B artist Frank Ocean’s 2012 album Channel Orange, noting the similarity in the album art. “I thought this was a Frank Ocean reference,” one fan said, while another joked about a potential collaboration between Shelton and Ocean, “Sheldon x Ocean newest heartbreak country song.”
Some fans even thought the orange could be connected to Shelton’s wife, Gwen Stefani, and her California roots, with one commenter humorously linking it to Stefani’s 1995 album with No Doubt, Tragic Kingdom. “Not gonna lie, my brain immediately thought of the orange on Tragic Kingdom then I got excited about a No Doubt tour 😂😂 sorry Blake, I’ll let it be about you,” they wrote.
Others were simply left baffled, flooding the comments with messages like “WHAT IS HAPPENING” and “BLAKE WHAT IS THIS,” unsure of what the post actually meant.
While the meaning behind the orange square remains unclear, it’s safe to say that Shelton has successfully got fans talking—whether or not they have any idea what they’re talking about!
