LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Ever since Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani got married, 'The Voice' coaches' choice in music seems to have become identical.

Unwilling to risk losing a very talented singer yet again to Team Gwen, Blake pre-emptively decided to use his block button and blocked his wife from even attempting to woo the youngster. If you're wondering who Ansley is and why Blake was so determined to get her on his team, then keep reading.

Who is Ansley Burns on 'The Voice' Season 22?

Ansley's face may appear familiar to 'America's Got Talent' fans. The youngster appeared on the talent-hunt show back in 2019, when she was only 12. 'AGT' judge Simon Cowell buzzed against Ansley mid-performance, not once but twice. Claiming that the background music was drowning out her voice, the judge demanded the youngster to sing her song acapella style. Despite Ansley bravely facing the situation head-on and wowing the audience both times, unfortunately, she failed to make it through the live round.

But it looks like Ansley has. grown and learned a lot since then. The now 15-year-old South Carolina resident is ready to show off her vocals before 'The Voice' coaches and be mentored by them. Before stepping onto the stage for her blind audition, Ansley expressed her desire to be picked by Blake as he's her idol. Her wish came true as Blake turned his chair while she was still singing the chorus of her song 'Unchained Melody'. Blake also played it safe by blocking Gwen, to ensure that Ansley would be left with no choice but to join Team Blake. Both Ansley and blake were happy with the end result as they got exactly what they wanted.

Several 'The Voice' fans were amused watching Blake block his wife for Ansley. A fan tweeted, "@gwenstefani #TheVoice cannot believe @blakeshelton wanted Ansley so bad he’d BLOCK his wifey!!! He always gets them youngins." "Good block move on Ansley, Blake. She mentioned backstage that she wanted you to be her coach. Good addition to the team. @blakeshelton #TheVoice," wrote a fan.
