Upcoming The Voice Season 26 Coach Michael Bublé recently became emotional in a clip shared by NBC on Instagram on September 18, 2024. It consisted of his interaction with legendary rapper Snoop Dogg, with fellow Coach Gwen Stefani also present.

The clip is from the special "Behind the Mic" backstage panel featuring three of The Voice's Season 26 Coaches. Michael could be seen getting emotional and almost choking. It was while he was sharing his experience about meeting Snoop Dogg for the first time, which the latter wasn't aware of.

"I love you so much. I'm not joking. My family loves you. We were so, I was so terrified that you wouldn't be who you are. I was so excited to do this with you and people saying, 'Oh man. He has a great reputation.' (Gets emotional) I was so nervous that day we showed up, and you were awesome, man."

In a short clip posted by NBC and later shared by Bublé and Snoop Dogg, the former shared how he met the artist he wanted to work with "his whole life."

Snoop Dogg could be seen asking Michael the question, and to his surprise, Michael's answer was quite exciting.

"Here's the real question, when you finally met, that artist that you wanted to work with, your whole life, and you got a chance to work with 'em, what was that feeling? And, you can name that artist, if you have," asked Snoop Dogg.

Listening to the question, Michael insisted he could not tell Snoop Dogg about "that artist."

"You know, I can't tell you. You won't believe me."

Snoop Dogg insisted that he would believe whatever Michael had to say. But Michael was also persistent from his side.

Then, Michael opened up and shared how he and his family loved Snoop Dogg.

"It was huge for me. Because the truth is, I was really excited. Like, I was so excited to meet you. And you were better than I ever thought you could ever be. That's the truth."

Upon learning of such a sweet gesture from a fan and his fellow Coach, Snoop Dogg expressed his appreciation.

"Thanks, Mike. Appreciate it, man."

Fellow The Voice Season 26 coach Gwen Stefani later shared that she felt "the same way" when she met Snoop Dogg for the first time.

"I felt the same way when I got to hang with you at the MTV Awards on that couch."

Fans can soon stream The Voice Season 26 Premiere episode on NBC on September 23, 2024, and on Peacock the next day.
