Looking Ahead to Year Two

Now that 'The Voice' is over, Blake Shelton can look forward to a little time off before hitting the road for his summer touring commitments. Right now, his schedule seems a little lighter than year's past, but it's possible that the calendar will soon fill up, or that he's indeed taking a little time away from the spotlight to be with his wife Miranda Lambert. A third season of 'The Voice' also seems likely for Shelton, as does a repeat gig as host of the ACM Awards next April. It's unlikely we'll see new music from the 'Over' singer in 2012, however.

Lambert won't release a new solo album this year, but she has recently talked about the next Pistol Annies album. She is spending significant time on the road, especially in June and July when she's gone nearly every weekend. Of course, the big question everyone is asking: when will the two decide to start a family? While the answer to that question is only their business, every hint they've dropped suggests it won't be before their second anniversary.
