As this season of NBC‘s The Voice picks up speed and cranks up the competition, the judges have experienced a whirlwind of emotions! While the coaches have formed admirable bonds with their contestants, the elimination process has proven harder and harder each week, tugging at the star’s heart strings as they deliberate on who to keep and who to send packing.
Coach Gwen Stefani experienced these emotions head on when her choice between two contestants had her in tears! Seen in footage that has yet to be aired, the singer was quite upset at the thought of removing one of her girls from the show.
“Are you crying already?,” Carson Daly asked the singer.
“Yes! Of course I’m crying,” Stefani admitted. “These are my babies!” Daly looked to Blake Shelton to comfort the bombshell blonde, prompting the fellow coaches to mock the couple with cute nicknames for Stefani.
Of course, not all the coaches were filled with sadness, as Adam Levine and bromance buddy Shelton shared a series of insults that had viewers in tears. You can view the unseen moments below!
