Bryan couldn't help ribbing his longtime pal Shelton in a recent interview with ET, while both stars were being honored at CMT's Artists of the Year celebration.
"You better stop me or it'll be a 30-minute roast session," he teased with a laugh. "I'm just glad Blake fit it in his time to come back to Nashville and see some people that he knows. He's ignored three of my phone calls today."
Of course, he also managed to sneak in some jokes about Shelton's new relationship – all in good fun, of course! See what he said in the video below.
