The Voice

Tanner Gomes had his pick of 'The Voice' coaches -- except for the country boy, Blake Shelton.

Ben Allen charmed with a Brooks & Dunn crooner, causing Gwen Stefani and John Legend to come to attention as well as Shelton.

It terrified him so much that he would rush to pop the cassette out of the player.

"The truth is this is my show," he says. "I'm the king of the Voice."

She gave a powerful performance.

Legend went so far as to trot out a funny election-spoof video saying "isn't it time you pick a coach you can believe in?"

Ian Flanagan wowed Shelton with a gravelly, mature delivery that suggested he was much older than his 30 years.

The new season is shaping up to be phenomenal.

Both singers have now been through very public divorces.

They live in a way that most people can only imagine.
