Blake Shelton Goes Off on Texas Critic After Mean Tweet About ‘The Voice’s’ Holly Tucker

It's no secret Blake Shelton speaks his mind on Twitter.  But one tweet from a music critic, after Holly Tucker was eliminated on 'The Voice,' really got Blake going.

#TheVoice sends one singer back to Texas. Don't worry, it's not the one we care about: blog.chron.com/tubular/2013/0…

Holly is from Waco Texas, while Danielle Bradbery, who is also from Blake Shelton's team, is from Cypress.

It's people like you @joeyguerra that make me sick... Holly is not only a talented singer but a great person that's simply chasing a dream.. — Blake Shelton (@blakeshelton) June 5, 2013

How about you @joeyguerra grow some balls and come tell me to my face how terrible some of these kids are face to face..? You won't. Ever. — Blake Shelton (@blakeshelton) June 5, 2013

I swear to god I cant understand the mentality of a grown man ripping on young kids over and over again for just trying their hardest. Kids!

He later apologized for his nasty tweets

I'm sorry for going off y'all... But I am passionate about encouraging young people to follow their dreams.. We GOOD people don't need hate.

The saying is 'Don't Mess with Texas,' but in this case it's don't mess with Blake Shelton. His team on 'The Voice' is like his family. Mess with them, you mess with Blake.

Good luck to Danielle and The Swon Brothers, the two artists left on Team Blake. Both will sing in the semi-finals next Monday on NBC at 8, along with Sasha Allen from Team Shakira, Michelle Chamuel from Team Usher and Adam's last artist, Amber Carrington.
