The Blind Auditions continued on season 14 of The Voice last night (3/12). Here’s a look at which artists chose Blake Shelton and joined Team Blake.
Blake started out the night needing three more artists to fill out his team by bringing the total to twelve. Alicia Keys and Kelly Clarkson also need three artists each to fill their teams. Adam Levine was looking for six more artists to have a complete set of members on his team.
When Bransen Ireland took the stage and performed the song “Tulsa Time” by country music icon Don Williams you knew it would at least get Oklahoma native Blake’s attention. It did indeed get his attention so he pressed his button followed quickly by Adam. Although when Adam pressed he had the look of, “I don’t know why I’m doing this, I obviously have no chance with this guy.”
Adam gave his best pitch with a few ideas of “do something unexpected” to try to convince Bransen to choose him over Blake as a coach. Alicia even chimed in to try to help Adam. Kelly pointed out the positive aspects of joining either team. Blake just went straightforward with his pitch to Bransen to join his team.
Bransen did make the obvious choice and joined Team Blake by choosing Blake as his coach.
Jordan Kirkdorffer went more contemporary with his country song choice performing Brett Young‘s #1 hit song “In Case You Didn’t Know.” The performance motivated Adam to press his button with Blake joining him and turning his chair near the end of the performance. Of course when Blake did turn Adam had a very dejected look on his face. Adam straight out asked Jordan, “Do I have a chance” to which the reply was “There’s always a chance.” Adam proceeded with his pitch with some confident attitude while again Blake just shot straightforward to Jordan. Kelly threw in some help to try to get Adam the win in this situation.
Jordan did go with the country superstar and picked Blake as his coach.
These two artists brought Team Blake to a total of 11 artists leaving Blake with one spot to fill. Alicia and Kelly also added two artists each to their respective teams leaving them with just a single spot open each as well. Adam was able to add four artists during the night leaving the Team Adam roster with two open spots.
Tonight all of the teams will be filled as the Blind Auditions end for season 14 of The Voice during the episode that starts at 7 PM central time (8 PM eastern time) on NBC. By the way, Kelly used her “Block” last night meaning there are none left for tonight’s episode.
