00:00 We are four days out from the return of "The Voice."
00:02 - Yes, we are.
00:03 This will be the first season without Blake Shelton.
00:06 New coach Reba McEntire.
00:08 - Reba!
00:09 - Reba will join John Legend, Niall Horan,
00:11 and Gwen Stefani, who told us
00:13 she's already missing her husband, Blake.
00:15 - I never want a season without Blake
00:17 for the rest of my life, guys.
00:19 - But Gwen assured us that Blake
00:22 is loving his "Voice" retirement,
00:24 fully embracing the farm life at their ranch
00:26 in his home state of Oklahoma.
00:28 - We're doing it, baby!
00:30 Woo!
00:31 - He's just chilling right now.
00:33 It's the first time in, what, 16 years or something
00:36 that he's just had no--
00:36 - About 13 years.
00:37 - He's not on a schedule.
00:38 I'm happy for him.
00:40 I remember he was kind of wanting to stop
00:42 for a couple seasons, and I was like,
00:44 I don't know, I won't even know who you are
00:46 if you're not on "The Voice."
00:47 But then now he's off "The Voice,"
00:49 it's like, oh, same Blake, no matter where he goes.
00:52 - And who better to take the place
00:53 of the self-proclaimed king of "The Voice"
00:56 than the queen of country herself?
00:58 - I am the queen, you cannot speak!
00:59 - Did you know she actually has a septum?
01:02 - Well, I hid him 'cause he's sitting by me.
01:03 Did it heal?
01:04 Is it still a scar?
01:06 - She once suggested that she was gonna
01:08 have someone beheaded as well.
01:10 - Yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:10 - You only said that once.
01:11 - Oh, okay.
01:12 - Up with his head!
01:13 - Despite her superstar status, Reba told us
01:16 she definitely felt the pressure coming in as a rookie.
01:19 - It was very nerve-wracking.
01:20 I didn't know what I was gonna say
01:21 if I did turn around and pick anybody.
01:23 I still don't know what to say half the time.
01:26 - No one understands that pressure
01:27 better than Niall, who came in as a rookie last year
01:30 and won the season.
01:32 (crowd cheering)
01:33 And helping him try to seal the deal for a second time
01:36 is an unexpected ally, Flake.
01:38 - If you did choose me as your coach,
01:40 you know we'd have a blast.
01:41 - Oh, but it's like a son to me.
01:43 - Oh my God!
01:45 We would find lots of--
01:46 - Niall is a global superstar.
01:49 (laughing)
01:50 - I'm so mad at him right now.
01:52 - This new guy comes along, wins his rookie season.
01:55 I'm just helping him prepare mentally
01:58 for the sophomore slump, you know?
02:00 - Don's sophomore slump lasted for seven seasons.
02:03 (laughing)
02:05 (upbeat music)
02:08 (upbeat music)
02:10 (upbeat music)
02:13 (upbeat music)
02:16 (upbeat music)
