UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIFORNIA: 'The Voice' fans were left fuming after Gwen Stefani decided to eliminate some contestants from her team in the Playoffs.

Gwen chose to eliminate Rudi, Stee, and Lennon VanderDoes while keeping Bias, Tanner Massey, and Kara Tenae.

A lot believed Kara was the right choice, but Rudi's elimination from the show made fans furious. 

As Rudi did not move ahead in the show despite having the potential to win it, a viewer tweeted, "Gwen Stefani just eliminated her 3 best singers in a single night. Rudi and Lennon were the only voices on her team with a chance to win and she chose BIAS????"

A fan called Gwen's choice to be a huge mistake and wrote, "GWEN CHOOSING TANNER AND BIAS OVER RUDI ARE YOU JOKING???? Huge mistake. Those are going to be the first 2 to get eliminated during live shows mark my words! Justice for my girl Rudi."

Another viewer commented, "I AM SO MAD RN BOYCOTT TEAM GWEN." 

One wrote on X, "Gwen thinking her team is the most stacked is hilarious that woman is so delusional."

Another wondered, "Can the voice get rid of Gwen Stefani????" "Gwen’s best hope is Kara. Tanner & Bias seriously?" one viewer said while slamming Gwen.

Rudi was not Gwen Stefani's 1st choice in 'The Voice' Season 24 Knockouts

In the Knockouts round, we saw Tanner Massey, Chechi Sarai, and Rudi competing against each other in the Knockouts.

Rudi, who sang 'Smokin' Out the Window' by Bruno Mars, and Anderson were not selected by Gwen at first. Tanner won the Knockouts round.

Chechi, on the other hand, was eliminated from the show. But, thankfully Rudi was saved by Gwen later. Even though Rudi was not Gwen's first choice, the coach recognized her talent and kept her in the show.
