Adam Levine was upset after shockingly losing two contestants on “The Voice” on Tuesday’s results show, and later found himself in hot water for a comment he made during the eliminations.
Right before host Carson Daly revealed Judith Hill and Sarah Simmons were voted off — and all three of Blake Shelton’s three country-singing contestants were safe yet again — Levine could be heard off-camera exclaiming, “I hate this country.”
The Maroon 5 front man, who is now down to just one team member, was almost immediately barraged with tweets slamming his seemingly un-American snipe at viewers who cast votes.
But Levine took to Twitter a few hours later to insist he was merely joking, going on to accuse viewers of being “humorless.”
Check out the video below (with Levine’s comment at the 1:13 mark), and tell us what you think.
