(AUDIO) Cassadee Pope Still Gets A Lot of Support From Blake Shelton

Cassadee Pope became a household name with country fans when she won season three of The Voice as a member of Team Blake Shelton, back in December 2012. In the three and a half years since she appeared on the show, Cassadee still keeps in contact with Blake and he is incredibly proud of the fact that she may soon have her very first #1 song with Chris Young and their song “Think of You.” Cassadee says, “Blake’s always been so supportive, and proud it seems, and we’ve spoken about the single and I think he’s just happy for anybody who comes from that show to really make it.”

While some people see a show like The Voice as a fast track to success, sometimes it can be the opposite. Cassadee says, “You really have to prove yourself even further that you are an artist. You’re not a contestant that came from a show who just happened to stumble upon it. So, yeah, it’s great to have Blake’s support and he’s just always been there for me.”

We have a feeling Blake will be one of the first people to call Cassadee if and when “Think of You” hits #1.

“Yeah, Blake’s always been so supportive, and proud it seems, and we’ve spoken about the single and I think he’s just happy for anybody who comes from that show to really make it, ‘cause it is a hard business, let alone coming from a show like ‘The Voice’. You really have to prove yourself even further that you are an artist, you’re not a contestant that came from a show who just happened to stumble upon it. So, yeah, it’s great to have his support and he’s just always been there for me.”
