After NBC's The Voice had its first live elimination show of the season Tuesday, two singers from Team Blake Shelton and Team Christina Aguilera were sent home. But not before some drama: The bottom three vote-getters on each team got a final chance to impress their mentors, who could each grant one singer immunity.

Two members of Blake Shelton's team were sent home Wednesday. Two singers from Christina Aguilera's team had to go, too.

Gym Class Heroes opened the show singing Back Home with Neon Hitch. The members of Team Adam Levine made a cameo appearance, singing, soundlessly, from the audience. Then, some results:

Safe on Team Blake: soulful Erin Willett, former backup singer Jermaine Paul and country-pop artist RaeLynn. That left his bottom three:

Naia Kete sang Beyonce's If I Were a Boy, and when Blake said he'd rather have heard her do reggae, she complained that "they wouldn't let me" pick a more reggae song.

Charlotte Sometimes' emotional final song was Goo Goo Dolls' Iris.

Jordis Unga performed a toned-down Wild Horses by the Stones.

Mentors Cee Lo Green, Christina and Adam said they would save Jordis. Blake, who had the only vote that granted immunity on his team, agreed: Jordis stayed, Naia and Charlotte were eliminated.

Safe on Team Christina: smooth Jesse Campbell, indie-rocking Lindsey Paveo and operatic Chris Mann. That left her bottom three:

Ashley De La Rosa sang an energetic Paris (Ooh La La) by Grace Potter and the Nocturnals.

Sera Hill crooned Vision of Love by Mariah Carey.

Moses Stone, who decided to sing instead of his usual rap, performed Breakeven by The Script.

Adam and Blake said they would save Ashley. Cee Lo said he'd save Sera. Christina went with Ashley, and Sera and Moses went home.

Next Monday at 8 ET/PT, the members of Team Cee Lo and Team Adam take the stage.
