Eli King called Chris Young “an a-hole” after he yelled at his friend to “come get your wife!”
While filming Blake Shelton and Carson Daly’s new show “Burmageddon” on the USA Network, singers from both countries were pitted against each other in wild bar games, including “Air Cannon Carnool,” “Keg Curling” and “Wine Ax Hole.”
However, according to an eyewitness, things got tense between the 37-year-old and King, 33, when she started talking about winning and gossiping.
The young man allegedly addressed his fiancee, Dawn Tucker, who was watching from the audience, and told him, “Come get your wife!”
The source – who is set to record in April 2022 – claimed, “I can’t hold my tongue about how country singer Chris Young treated Elle King. He talked to her. Do it because she is a woman.
“I’m sure the network will take it down so she doesn’t look bad, but when she started beating him in bar games and not talking like boys, he couldn’t take it anymore. He had seen red.
“He called her names and then even shouted over her head to a man who was with her that it’s okay ‘Come on your wife’ – what’s he going to do? So stupid. The whole crew saw it and heard it. .
The interaction was not included in the final broadcast, which aired last week.
However, when asked recently who was the most competitive contestant on the series, host Shelton told ET, “Chris Young,” as Daily added, “Chris Young was the most competitive.”
Although the incident remains unsolved, King addressed the alleged sexual assault comment and explained why she named her latest album, “Come Get Your Woman.”
“The title of this record came about because a famous tailor tried to yell, ‘Go get your wife,’ and I was like, ‘I’m not even married, just because I played one of his was jumping. I said, ‘Wouldn’t it be fun if I told him my record?’ So I did,” she wrote via Instagram on Monday.
She also added in a separate Instagram post, “Remember one time I hit a hole in a game and he yelled, ‘Come get your wife!’ To my friend!?!? And I’m married too!” Nope! Lol. Thanks for the album title, babe 😉.”
A representative for Young, his record label, did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment. Nor the king’s representatives.
A representative for the USA network, which is owned by NBC Universal, also did not get back to us.
