Ariana: Hi.
What is your name? Where are you from?
I'm Katherine Ann Mohler from Memphis, Tennessee.
I'm obsessed with you.
Oh, my God. Up, up, up.
[ Laughter ]
She says she loves you.
She said she was obsessed with her.
She even came with a pony, too.
But I love you, too. I want to hear it all.
Let's please talk about your voice,
because it is phenomenal.
I could tell that you were a little bit nervous,
but I think working with a coach like ♪ me ...
♪ Like me ...we could really work through those
because the technique is there, the tone is there.
You know who's not there? Blake.
[ Laughter ]
Kelly and I will get our little pleasantries
out of the way. Blake will be out of the way in a minute.
And then we'll get Blake out of the way
so you can join Team Ariana.
[ Laughs ] What are you doing? Stop this!
She's one of your vocal influences, too.
Oh, 6,000%.
I definitely dressed up as you for Halloween, um, one year.
Oh, wow. You definitely have a chance, Blake.
It's funny 'cause I was Blake Shelton one year.
So good, so good.
[ Laughter ] Pull it back.
He's turning his chair back around.
No, no.
Push it back, push it back.
Wasted my turn.
This is not about her picking me
because she's a fan of me.
This is about what I have to offer
as far as teaching you what I know
about the business and producing
and all the other things that it takes.
Absolutely. It's not just about winning this show,
it's about building a lifelong career for yourself.
Get it. John: Amazing.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Right off the bat,
I could tell that obviously she was an influence,
and I wouldn't want to rip that opportunity away from you
like Blake does. [ Laughter ]
I think that you're gonna have an amazing time
with Ariana this season.
Blake: If my calculations are correct,
I am by far the oldest coach here
who has already had a lifetime in this damn business.
Wait.
And -- Eh, eh, eh, eh!
I know you can navigate this competition.
I don't think --
I think Blake, for once, told the truth.
He is the oldest coach on "The Voice." Thank you.
With a lower success rate of winning the show
than Kelly Clarkson, I think. John: Oh! Oh!
I think he does, percentage-wise.
If you're gonna jab, I'll jab back.
Oh! Oh! I don't even know what the percentage thing --
what they're even talking about.
Oh, should we talk about it?
It's called math.
There's a numerator, and there's a denominator.
Seven seasons with three wins, correct?
With three wins.
21 seasons -- how many wins?
I have a storage building full of trophies.
Eight. I'm not sure how many.
Can I please -- So 8 in 20 is 40%.
I would love the opportunity to talk to Katherine.
And 3 in 7 is -- You're at 43% success rate,
and he is at a 40% success rate.
[ Cheers and applause ] That's all I'm saying.
We stan a queen that can sing and do math.
And do math. [ Laughs ]
Blake, finish.
I've never dressed up as Ariana for Halloween.
That's alright. But I do appreciate her.
And I actually adore this person.
Don't let him trick you. I think she is awesome.
I think she's incredibly talented.
I don't have a clue what kind of coach
she's gonna be on this show, though.
I have a lot to prove, and that's true. But I will.
I, on the other hand, have zero to prove.
He's coasting.
Maybe I am coasting,
just like I did last year.
[ Laughter ]
Just pick me as your coach. Come on.
So, Katherine, who do you pick your coach?
[ Audience shouting ]
♪
I love you. Please don't hate me.
I am choosing Ariana.
♪ My wrist, stop watchin', my neck is flossy ♪
[ Speaks indistinctly ] Fair enough, fair enough.
The singers have been incredible so far.
Thank you so much.
I finally got to properly stand up for myself, and it worked.
I'm getting the hang of this.
I'm so happy to have Katherine on my team.
I loved her interpretation of that song,
and I think we'll be able
to pull some really great performances together.
Ahhh!
She dressed up for her as Halloween.
