Blake Shelton continued collecting young female talent Thursday on The Voice much to the dismay of his girlfriend Gwen Stefani.

Gwen, 47, grew annoyed when Blake, 40, nabbed another slew of fabulous females for his team.

First of the night was 23-year-old Nashville resident Ashley Levin - who both Blake and Gwen wanted.

Ashley, a college graduate, began writing songs as catharsis when her father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.

She sang Let Him Fly by Dixie Chicks.

'If we make it to the finale I've got the hook up,' Gwen said, pointing to Blake.

'I just did a country song, with Blake Shelton,' she added.

'Quit dropping my name,' he joked.

'You're no different than all the other girls on his team right now, he literally has all cute girls on his team,' jibed Gwen.

But Ashley went with Blake, saying: 'I've been listening to you my whole life'.

Gwen lost out again with Casi Joy, from Nashville, who yodeled through Blue by LeAnn Rimes - impressing all four judges.

'You are so good…I am always going to remember that performance,' Gwen yelled at the 21-year-old singer.

Adam Levine went big, saying: 'I would literally try and leap over the moon and back for you'.

In a huff, the Maroon 5 frontman noted that Blake always steals the country artists.

'I'm not going to get my hopes up, because I am too exhausted,' sulked the 37-year-old Moves Like Jagger singer.

'I'm not giving up until Casi is on this team, because this is meant to freaking be,' said Blake.

'She could win this thing,' he said.

The second singer of the night was calypso and reggae-lover Brandon Royal, 31, from the British Virgin Islands.

Blake and Gwen were left fighting again.

Gwen called him 'so natural' and 'so pure' while name dropping some of the people she's worked with such as Dr. Dre and the rapper Eve.

'Brandon, I want to help you hold your hose,' laughed Blake.

This time Gwen was triumphant.

Long-haired rocker Adam Pierce, from New Orleans, did A Whiter Shade Of Pale by Procol Harum.

Adam said the contestant's 'slight pitchiness' had affected the outcome.
