A month of production for The Voice Season Three had gone by already. The judges were doing an interview together and the interviewer planned on rehashing the past, to create drama. Christina had arrived early for the first time ever, surprising everyone involved in the show. She and Adam were waiting for Blake and Cee Lo to show up.

Cee Lo was talking to Blake as they walked into the room where the interview was taking place. They both looked around and Blake's eyes happened to land on Christina. Blake was still looking at her when he asked Cee Lo, "fat like a pig?"

Christina's face went ashen and she runs out of the room in tears. Cee Lo and Blake look at each other in confusion and then at Adam.

Blake says, "what the hell did I do now?"

The interviewer smirked, this material was great. "You just said that Christina's fat like a pig."

"No I didn't!" Blake said horrified.

Cee Lo said, "I was explaining the term 'P.H.A.T.', as in cool."

"Damn it, she's so sensitive," Blake sighed. "Comfortable with her weight, my ass."

Adam worked on calming Blake down, while Cee Lo went to find Christina.  He could hear her crying in her dressing room. He sighed and knocked.

"Go away," she cried.

"It's Cee Lo, come on let me in." He heard the door unlock and opened it. "Blake wasn't calling you names. We were talking about 'P.H.A.T', he doesn't get it."

"Oh," Christina sniffed, "I guess I should apologize to him."

Cee Lo understood how hard it was to be in the spot light and be heavier than what was expected of the rich and famous elite. "I know it's hard honey, but you're healthy and that's the most important thing."

"You're right, thank you Cee Lo." Christina said and accepted a hug from him.

"Now clean up that pretty face of yours and let's get on with that interview," Cee Lo added.

Together they came back into the interview area. Blake took Christina aside, but before he could say anything she said, "sorry Blake. I misunderstood, add it to my other diva moments."

That shocked Blake and then he smiled.  Jokingly he said, "okay everyone, the diva's back. Let's get started."

The interviewer had Christina sit between Blake and Adam. That spot would become totally uncomfortable for the singer once the questions began.  Drama improved TV ratings and sold magazines.

"Adam last season on The Voice you're relationship with Christina started out with fun bickering and then turned ugly. It's been reported that you called her the "C" word. If you hate her so much, why come back for season three?'

Adam shifted in his seat. "A few times I lost my temper with her, but the past is the past."

Christina added, "we were all under a lot of pressure and lashed out at each other."

The interviewer wouldn't let Adam off that easy. "In fact Adam, you used Tony Lucca to blatantly attack Christina on television.  It's been said you were a bully, something you've said in the past that you'd never be."

"I might have taken our feud a little far," Adam admitted. "But, I wasn't being a bully."

Cee Lo and the interviewer both raised an eyebrow, showing Adam they thought differently. "Christina why did you disrespect Adam, Tony and some of the other stars that performed?"

"I was just teasing Adam. Tony is a great singer, what I disapproved of was him using his ties to Justin for soliciting votes. Doing that was unfair to the other contestants. If his ties were so great, he wouldn't have been on the show in the first place. Vocally Katrina Parker was better than Tony, as Cee Lo and Blake had also stated. I wanted Adam to honour what The Voice is about, not just stick it to me."
