Sadler in Video: #21 Cup driver Elliott Sadler and Country Music Male Vocalist Blake Shelton spent the majority of Tuesday and Wednesday filming the music video for Shelton’ new release, Ol Red.. The two met in March of this year when Sadler attended one of Shelton’ concerts in Atlanta.. They began to chat and found they share a common interest in deer hunting.. By the conclusion of the meet and greet, Sadler and Shelton had made plans to shoot the music video and a deer hunting trip to Virginia in December. The filming of Ol Red began Tuesday morning and That’ A Wrap transpired on Wednesday night around midnight.. Shelton’ first major release, Austin, soared to No. 1 on the country music charts. Filming Ol Red with Blake has been awesome, stated Sadler.. Ive always enjoyed watching music videos and when Blake asked me if Id like to join him in one of his videos I immediately accepted.. It was a lot of fun and similar to filming a commercial accept it took a lot longer.. Ive always told everyone that if I couldnt be a racecar driver Id want to be a country music singer.. This is probably as close as Ill ever come. According to Shelton, I became a huge NASCAR fan last year in October when I sang the National Anthem at Talladega.. Elliott and I had a great time filming the video and I hope all of the NASCAR and country music fans will enjoy the Ol Red Video.” To view the lyrics from Ol Red please click on the link below: http://www.blakeshelton.com/section/audio/olred.htm.
