HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA: During 'The Voice' Season 24 Blind Auditions, Gwen Stefani and Reba McEntire both wanted Kristen Brown. But who took her?
Gwen clicked her button and turned her chair just as Kristen started singing. Reba joined in a bit later, leaving fellow Coaches John Legend and Niall Horan to listen on the sidelines and await the next confrontation. "You're very fortunate to have these two ladies fighting over you," John commented after Kristen's audition.
Reba McEntire tries to steal Kristen Brown from Gwen Stefani on 'The Voice' Season 24
Reba took the stage first, emphasizing her deep roots and extensive network in the country music industry.
"Carrie Underwood, a buddy of mine. Love the song, and you did it justice," she stated. "I was very taken with your performance. I did notice a few little pitchy things, but your enthusiasm was wonderful. In my career, I've had a lot of mentors, so I am very fully aware of what you want to hear, what you need to hear, and I would love to be your Coach and help you out to win this competition."
Gwen pitched herself next, naturally terrified by Reba's country clout. "This is really difficult, because Reba's the Queen, so it's hard to find against her," she stated. "But I'm going to fight her right now."
"I thought you had a really interesting tone," Gwen continued. You're a diamond in the rough. The thing is, everything I try to pitch, [Reba's] done it as well, like 10 times more."
That caused John to point out that Gwen has one accomplishment that Reba lacks. "She has not won The Voice," John stated.
"She has not won The Voice," Stefani said, adding to Kristen, "I've done all the stuff that you want to do. I want to mother you."
Reba, always secure in her decades of expertise and accomplishments, was quick to answer. "Lady Gwen, you are right. I have not won a season of The Voice...yet," she explained.
Despite Reba's appeal and fame as a country star, Kristen chose Gwen in what John and Niall Horan called an "upset victory."
"I'm gonna steal you, though, so you better behave," Reba said.
