Something tells me that all 3 of Blake's artists will be safe tonight.

So, my whole problem with this article (and others I've seen like it) is the assumption that there can only be one or the other, that there can only be one female judge. It's like they can't imagine both women on the same program.

Yeah, that bothers me, though I think at least some of that is due to she and Shakira occupying the same genre (broadly.) I could see them bringing in other women in place of Adam, Blake, Cee Lo, for instance.
- Jennifer Dittrich
If it were just the genre issue, I wouldn't be as irritated, but I never hear people suggest changing out one of the guys for a woman.
- Katy S
I was just reading about how stand-up comedy, even these days, tends to be almost all male /because/ the lower rungs of the comedy clubs intentionally only book one or two women a night, and only one for each half of the night.

Yeah, that's why it gets me too. Personally, I'd love them to dump Blake for one of the multitude of female contemporary country stars out there right now. I like him alright, but that genre has a tradition of really strong women, and I feel like we're missing out on that right now.
- Jennifer Dittrich
I thought the original agreement was that she and CeeLo were only taking 1 season away from the show, and that they'd both be back next season.
- DAMMIT, MR. NOODLE
yeah, that was what the press said back then.
- holly #ravingfangirl
That wasn't the issue for me. It's the assumption that there will be one woman and three men and that changes must maintain that ratio.
- Katy S
I'm confused. Why was that crap featured on The Voice?
"May the Force be with you." I love Shakira!

Truth. I love this song (and really, really love Bela Fleck's cover of it), so I'm really picky about other people covering it; but she's nailing it.
- DAMMIT, MR. NOODLE
Definitely not a pair I'd normally expect to see sing together.

It's very odd hearing her sing this song; I'm so accustomed to the original since my wife's a huge fan of Lady A.

All of these singers that sound like they're singing with a speech impediment ('they shay' instead of 'they say', etc.) really annoy me for some reason. The judges always seem to love them, though. I'm not saying she doesn't have a nice voice, but the way she pronounces her words really gets on my nerves. I realize that's shallow.
Ooooh, this next one is going to be crazy competitive
oh dear *nervous*

I really like Shawna, I'd hate to lose her
- maʀtha
I like them both.
- Katy S
but against Sasha, man
- maʀtha
I know. I hate that they're against each other.
- Katy S
because this is great, really great
- maʀtha
I love that Shawna is middleaged, though, I thinks she deserves a wider audience
- maʀtha
And she, too, can rock!
- Katy S
shit
- maʀtha
yeah. bad pairing choice

Ah. That explains why I didn't like it. I've never been able to stand Joan Jett

When I was a teenager, I wanted to be a cross between Joan Jett and Chrissie Hynde.
- Katy S
well now
- maʀtha
They both rocked!

Yes! Not just for this reason, but I'm really loving Shakira.

She's smart. She doesn't put down other teams' singers. She's smart. (yeah, I know I wrote that twice)
- Katy S
She smiles a lot. She seems to genuinely like people.
- Katy S
I like her too
- maʀtha
she also has a bigger vocabulary than the rest of those three guys put together
- maʀtha
Oh, and I think she really knows how to deal with those 3 guys she's on stage with and do it with good humor.
- Katy S
Doesn't she have an IQ of 140 or so?
- Katy S
earlier, Adam used juxtaposed incorrectly
- maʀtha
oh, really? I didn't know
- maʀtha
Yeah, she's brilliant and multilingual.
- Katy S
I really do like her on this show.
