Over the years on The Voice, Blake Shelton and Carson Daly have become best buds, so it’s no wonder Carson’s 13-year-old son, Jackson felt very comfortable roasting Blake about leaving his father after the season ends.
For Today, Jackson Daly guilt-tripped Blake Shelton with the following question: “You and my dad have been on The Voice throughout it all. Why are you leaving him?”
Shelton didn’t hesitate and answered quickly, “You know when I first started on this show, I think you were one, and I feel like I just wanted to stay here long enough that I felt like you were grown enough to make it on your own without my influence.”
Daly then asked for advice for a 13-year-old who can audition for The Voice, Blake stated, “What I would say to you is music’s probably not gonna be your thing because I’ve heard you sing, and please, for the sake of your own self-worth, don’t put yourself through that.” Daly had a hilarious response saying, “He always tells me, ‘Fake it till you make it.’ That’s what you’ve done.”
