Blake Shelton - Record Label Bosses Tried To Shut Down Blake Shelton's Twitter

In May (11), The Who You Are When I'm Not Looking hitmaker landed himself in trouble after posting insensitive anti-gay remarks on his social networking site.

The country star has since raised eyebrows for taking to the site to recount his drunken nights, and he admits executives at his music label, Warner Bros., haven't been too happy with his online behaviour and subsequently tried to prevent him from tweeting to keep him out of trouble.

He tells The New York Times, "There was a point where Warner Bros. was (sic), like, 'We've got to get Blake off Twitter, 'cause he can't say these type of things.'"

But Shelton isn't worried about upsetting his fan base - he hopes people will remember him for being true and pushing the envelope.

He adds, "I hope that people learn from me, it's OK to be yourself. It's OK to offend somebody, and, as a matter of fact, please be polarising. If you're not polarising, you failed in my opinion. If you don't stand for something, how can anyone respect what you do?"
