Here's What Reba McEntire's Son Shelby Blackstock Is Doing Today

Shelby Blackstock’s biggest dream was to become a pro race car driver, and that’s exactly what he did. As his mom proudly told People, “He was a natural.” While at school, he quickly set a track record and made his competitive debut at the 2010 Mustang Challenge. Just five months after that, he was already preparing for his first journey around the famed Daytona International Speedway, competing in the Continental Tire Challenge Grand-Am 200. “I’ve always wanted to race here,” Blackstock told The Daytona Beach News-Journal. “It’s like a kid in a candy store.”

In the years that followed, he picked up numerous wins and podium finishes, even becoming the 2020 GT World Challenge America overall champion with his racing partner, Trent Hindman. However, while he’s still racing, he’s taken a step back and, according to LinkedIn, has some new hustles. In 2020, he took on the role of Business Development Manager at Global Source Advisors (a home healthcare service), and in 2021, he joined B&R Developments LLC (a real estate developer) as a principal (or broker).

As of February 2024, he still held both positions, but not all of his ventures have been successful. Shelby previously founded a clothing line called Hartland, which appears to have gone defunct in 2021. According to its old Instagram page, the brand’s mission was to “connect and grow a community through a unique and quality brand that’s deeply rooted in the love of the outdoors.”
