Blake Shelton's earned popularity outside of country music thanks to his spot as a judge on 'The Voice,' and it shows in the list of nominees for the 2015 People's Choice Awards.

Shelton is nominated for Favorite Male Artist, along with John Legend, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and Pharrell Williams. He's the only country artist to earn a nomination outside of the country-specific categories.
