After two of his three contestants were voted off the May 28 episode of ‘The Voice’, coach Adam Levine let his voice be heard to everyone in America who was listening.
In a moment of anger after contestants Judith Hill and Sarah Simmons were shockingly voted off, Adam Levine said under his breath “I hate this country” with his microphone still on. Now, the singer is receiving massive backlash for his comment, but he is defending what he calls a misunderstanding.
Adam Heads To Twitter To Respond To Outrage
He was seemingly upset about two of his talents going home — who wouldn’t be? While the Maroon 5 singer hasn’t made an official statement about his controversial comment, he did go to Twitter on May 29 to respond to some of the backlash. He tweeted the definitions of certain words to clear up that, in fact, he didn’t actually hate America:
joke- noun 1. something said or done to provoke laughter or cause amusement, as a witticism, a short and amusing anecdote, or prankish act
mis·un·der·stand Pronunciation: \(ˌ)mi-ˌsən-dər-ˈstand\ Date: 13th century 1 : to fail to understand 2 : to interpret incorrectly
Let’s face it, Adam Levine doesn’t hate this country. He was just angry that not enough people voted to keep Judith and Sarah on the show, both incredible performers. However, he still has Amber Carrington, whose powerful rendition of Adele’s ‘Skyfall‘ on May 27 solidified herself a place in the top 6.
