Blake Shelton Doesn’t Know Who Ellie Goulding Is During ‘The Voice’ Battles – Recap [VIDEOS]
Blake Shelton may not know who Ellie Goulding is, but he knows a great voice when he hears one. The country coach used his last steal on 'The Voice,' to pick up Jessie Pitts who was let go after her performance of Goulding's 'I Need Your Love.'
'I solemnly swear to learn who Ellie Goulding is,' Blake promised Pitts after hitting his button to steal her. Except it's pronounced 'Golding.' 'That's what I meant to say. See I'm already on the road,' Shelton joked. Funny I always thought it was pronounced Goulding too Blake.
Shelton tried convincing Pitts to join #TeamBlake during the blinds, comparing her to a bowl full of Lucky Charms with only marshmallows. Now that he has her, he has high hopes. 'You're so unique I think you can win this freakin' thing.' I don't know about winning the whole thing but I do know, Gwen will be regretting letting Pitts go.

Jessie Pitts vs Ryan Sill 'I Need Your Love'
Bree Fondacaro vs Taylor Brashears
Bree Fondacaro and Taylor Brashears took on Linda Ronstadt's 'You're No Good' and it wasn't very good. Both strayed from the original so much it kind of ruined the song. Blake stuck to his country roots, keeping Nashville native Brashears becasue 'Bree gets lost in herself when she's performing and Taylor gets lost in the song.'
It may be just me but there's a fine line between confident and cocky and Taylor is teetering on it. I love her voice but her attitude rubs me the wrong way. If I'm not the only one who feels this way, she'll lose votes in the live rounds.
Have I mentioned @LindaRonstadt is one of my idols?? #BattlesContinue #YoureNoGood #TeamTaylorB #taytertots
