I think the mentor has to make the cut. There was a point in the previews where Adam told Blake or Ceelo that he was glad he didn't have to choose.

At first, their songs annoyed me. Now, I love love love Maroon 5.

Ok, I deserved that.

(But technically it's not really name dropping if you know person, family, grades in school, first true love...right?)

But what if the two in the ring sing great, but there are two others that are in the ring the next day and they both suck? This head to head stuff is just to cutesy and gimmick for me.

I wonder what this will do for Blake rumors - since all the other judges preferred the gay Pop singer and he picked the cowboy - now it could be that he just did not accept country - did anyone else turn around for that guy? If so he should have chosen not Blake.

Sadiesmom, I think you are mistaken about the "gay rumors." I wouldn't believe everything you read about what Blake tweeted, and I think even GLAAD has realized the mistake.

I must be deaf or something, because the two girls who had the "greatest battle" song - I thought they both were horrible. One girl looked like she was having a BM all the way through the song and the other one...well...I didn't like either one of them but was amazed when the BM girl got picked.

I also thought that Adam Levine picked the hot girl over the quirky guy because she was hot...but I think both of them had really good voices.

I saw the Adam Levine pick different. The girl was really good and was a newbie to singing. I thought that he picked her because she was really good and could really be molded into a great singer. Having said that, I think she's more country.... Reba appeared to be entranced by her performance.

Interesting though, I liked the performance of Ceelo's ultimate pick.

All in all, the show was really enjoyable to me and I smiled all the way through it. Was surprised at how fast the hour went.

I think Blake's getting married this weekend. So, Dovez, you may have to knock Miranda Lambert out of the way.

Jimmer, last week Blake made a stereotypically macho/homophobic worded tweet about what he would do if a gay guy touched him. He said it was not meant to be homophobic but personally I think he didn't realise it was homophobic, which is a whole 'nother thing to it not actually being homophobic.

This was the tweet:
Re-writing my fav Shania Twain song.. Any man that tries Touching my behind He's gonna be a beaten, bleedin', heaving kind of guy...

Most of Blake's tweets are colorful. About getting drunk, getting laid, or getting high. They are meant to be funny. Sometimes they are pretty outrageous.

Well, perhaps he really doesn't want to be groped by a gay guy?

To be fair to him he probably uses that sort of language when he talks about someone whistling at his girlfriend, or something like that, but it doesn't mean that he shouldn't be called on it. Threatening violent behaviour and reinforcing the deep seated fear some men have that gay men just can't resist them only promotes acceptance of violence against gays as a way of protecting yourself against some sort of menace to society.

I'm sure you know what I mean even if I can't express it well. I'm sure he didn't mean it as a homophobic comment and I'm sure he's gay friendly in most aspects of his life, but that's all the more reason to make him aware that words matter, particularly when you're talking about a community that is constantly victimised.

Blake said it wasn't his perspective but Shania's. Sometimes it just isnt about gay people no matter what they wanna think.
