What Led to Michael Bublé’s Decision to Cut Ties with Reba McEntire?
Michael Bublé and Reba McEntire have shared a mutual respect in the music industry for years, but that relationship seems to have come to an abrupt end. The Canadian crooner recently revealed that he’s distancing himself from McEntire after learning about her alleged tactics on The Voice.
- Ben Affleck, ex-husband of Jennifer Garner, broke his silence, revealing how she “saved” him during the biggest CRISIS of his life.
- After a period of keeping it private, Reba McEntire has finally disclosed why she chose to “stay out of the spotlight” during her family trip to Africa: To perform a ritual?
- The wedding photos of Shelby, Reba McEntire’s son, left everyone “stunned” by their extravagance: “This is truly the caliber of the son of the queen of music.”
Sources close to Bublé claim he was “disappointed and blindsided” upon hearing that McEntire supposedly offered special incentives to contestants to secure their loyalty on the show. While McEntire has not publicly responded to the accusations, the rumors have ignited a firestorm of debate among fans and fellow musicians.
The Alleged “Bribing” Tactics on The Voice
According to industry insiders, McEntire allegedly went beyond the usual coaching strategies to persuade contestants to join and stay on her team. Reports suggest that she offered exclusive networking opportunities, career-boosting collaborations, and even lavish gifts to sway participants in her favor.

- Reba McEntire revealed that she and Rex Linn will not spend Christmas together this year due to a previous “unpleasant Christmas season” caused by him NOT FOLLOWING her family’s rules.
While such incentives may seem like harmless perks, some believe these tactics undermine the fairness of the competition. Critics argue that contestants should choose their coaches based on mentorship and musical compatibility rather than potential rewards. Bublé, who has always emphasized integrity in his career, reportedly found these allegations troubling enough to distance himself from McEntire altogether.
How Has Reba McEntire Responded?
As of now, McEntire has not officially commented on Bublé’s statement or the accusations against her. However, those familiar with her coaching style insist that she has always been a dedicated and supportive mentor to aspiring artists. Some fans speculate that this controversy might be exaggerated or even fabricated to create drama within The Voice community.
Despite the backlash, McEntire continues to maintain her strong presence in both country music and television. Whether she will address the claims or let her legacy speak for itself remains to be seen.
