The Voice: Adam Levine 'I Hate This Country', Outraged Fans Took To Twitter Where Many Demanded Levine Be Fired As A Judge or Deported
Adam Levin on Last night's episode of "The Voice" has left the Maroon 5 frontman subject to criticism from some patriotic fans. The US version of "The Voice" had a shock move from Levine last night, after hearing the muttering voice in microphone, "I hate this country".
The Statement was caught on Levine's open mic, even though the camera was focused on fellow coach Blake Shelton. Levine made the remark statement after Carson Daly revealed that America had voted to save country music singer Amber Carrington, one of Levine's contestants. The statement was caught on Levine's open mic, even though the camera was focused on fellow coach Blake Shelton.
Levine's comment seemed out of place, especially since America had chosen to keep one his singers on the show. Earlier in the evening, however, two of Levine's other contestants, early frontrunner Judith Hill and soul singer Sarah Simmons, were eliminated.
On the other hand fans took to Twitter where many demanded Levine either be fired as a judge on the hit NBC show or he be deported.

Levine played defense rather than apologize. In a post of tweets, he shared the definition for the words Joke, Humorless, Lighthearted and misunderstand in an effort to pledge his allegiance to America
