Luke Bryan shared an inside look at his rise to fame in an IMDb TV documentary, “My Dirt Road Diary” and spoke to Access Hollywood about the project, “I think it’s always really really fun to show your fans and the world where you truly come from.”
The country superstar also shared some sentimental words about his friends Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani who recently tied the knot. “Even being around them and watching, it’s a special thing, I’m so happy for them. I think they went about it and went about their love and their path and journey in the right way. They just didn’t just fall in love and go rush off and get married.”
