With its present season, The Voice is already shaping as much as be one other potential lock for Blake Shelton to stroll away with the win to rejoice his twenty third and closing season as a coach on the stalwart NBC hit. Clearly, fellow co-stars Kelly Clarkson, Likelihood the Rapper and Niall Horan will likely be trying to spin the nation crooner’s swan music into their very own victories as they make it by means of the Battle Rounds. And regardless that he’s not on the present anymore, it appears like former coach Adam Levine could be equally happy to see any of these three opponents sending Shelton out the door on a loss. It’s like they all the time say: “You possibly can take the Maroon 5 frontman out of the rivalry, however you possibly can’t take the rivalry out of the Maroon 5 frontman.”
Whereas Adam Levine may take pleasure in residing the remainder of his life with out ever having to reply questions on Blake Shelton once more, Voice followers will always remember the pair’s aggressive back-and-forth for the 16 years that the pop singer made himself at residence within the huge crimson chairs. As such, throughout considered one of Levine’s comparatively restricted nights out not too long ago, he was requested by Leisure Tonight for his ideas on Shelton hanging up his hat for good, and he didn’t must say very a lot to get his level throughout. In his phrases:
May followers have anticipated anything, actually? Did anybody consider Levine would settle right into a long-winded and praise-laden treatise on the sacredness of Shelton’s skills? Now that may be an April Idiot’s Day gag for the ages. I assume he deserves credit score for not repeatedly saying “Copycat!” time and again in probably the most nasal voice doable.
In fact, it’s possible that Adam Levine doesn’t give two hoots or a holler about what Blake Shelton does, because the dude is as busy as might be with out juggling argumentative bromances. For one, he and spouse Behati Prinsloo are nonetheless elevating their third baby, who was born in January 2023, after having spent a bit of 2022 rising from rumors of Levine dishonest with Sumner Stroh. (The story was large enough to make the singer one of many yr’s largest trending musicians.) Plus, he and Maroon 5 kicked off their extremely anticipated Las Vegas residency, which Levine’s fam went out to rejoice on its opening weekend. There are a number of extra April dates, with the band returning to Vegas for an additional two week stretch in late July/early August. Since The Voice will likely be completed at that time, possibly Shelton can go be part of him on stage at Park MGM.
When Shelton lastly does bow out after Season 23 has wrapped, the present will not boast any coaches who had been there for the reason that starting, because the award-mongering musician has been the drawl-friendly glue protecting the present collectively for all these years. (Possibly that’s giving him an excessive amount of credit score.) Is it doable that Levine might return to the teaching chair for the primary time in seven or eight years with out his BFF there to poke enjoyable at him?
Whereas forming a few of these hopes, relive among the rivalry by means of the video beneath.
The Voice airs Monday nights on NBC at 8:00 p.m. Be sure you tune in to see how the NBC staple will likely be dealing with its voting course of this season.
