Blake Shelton‘s got some tricks up his sleeve!
“I feel like I’m at a disadvantage,” Shelton said after pressing the button forTate Brusaright after Jonas, 27, did.
Within a few moments, apuppy was handed to Sheltonand the audience cheered in excitement.
“What in God’s name?” coachJohn Legendsaid in shock.Kelly Clarksonthen ran over, cooing over the pooch, saying, “I want the puppy!”
“This shouldn’t be allowed onThe Voice!” Jonas hilariously fired back at Shelton.
That’s when Shelton gave Brusa an ultimatum.
“You like Tate? You like Tate?” Shelton said to the puppy while holding him up.
“Tate, I want you to know that if you don’t choose me as your coach, this puppy is going to go straight back to the animal shelter,” Shelton revealed.
However, the puppy wasn’t a strong enough tactic to win Brusa over.
In the end, he chose to join team Jonas.
“WOW! That was unreal! TEAM NICK BABY!!!” Brusawroteon Instagram alongside a photo of himself singing with Jonas on stage.
The pair sang a rendition ofEd Sheeran‘s “Perfect” as Jonas played the guitar.
While Shelton did his best to steer Brusa away from Jonas’ team, he is a fan of the “Jealous” crooner.
In a hilarious promo for season 18, Shelton was revealed to be asuper-fan of Jonas.
The clip starts out with Shelton’s fellow coach Legend, 41, asking him if he has said “hi” to Jonas yet. In response, Shelton pretends not to know who he’s talking about and asks, “Nick, who?”
Clarkson, 37, then greets Shelton and Legend in the hallway wearing a shirt with Jonas’ face on it and asks, “How pumped are we?” Shelton continues with the charade and says, “I’m not pumped because I don’t know who this is. I don’t know who this guy is.”
After Clarkson asks why Shelton is “being so weird,” it’s revealed that he has a room full of Jonas merchandise — including a guitar, a framed T-shirt, pillows with Jonas’ face on them and signs, which have phrases like “I am a Jonas Brother,” “Stay Calm & Dream ofNick Jonas” and “U had me at Nick Jonas” written on them.
As a life-sized cardboard cutout of Jonas falls on top of him, Shelton admits, “Okay, maybe I’ve heard of him.”

When Jonas walks up to the three coaches, Shelton is mesmerized as Jonas’ 2016 hit “Close” plays in his head. As he snaps back to reality, Shelton sheepishly says “hi” to Jonas.
In October, Jonas first revealed that he would be joiningThe Voiceas a coach during an appearance onThe Ellen DeGeneresShow.
“I’m so excited to be a part ofThe Voicefamily,” Jonas said in a statement at the time. “It’s such an awesome group of individuals, and I can’t wait to help these artists really build and hone in to find their unique voices.”
