WATCH: That time Neil Patrick Harris did a ‘blind audition’ on ‘The Voice’
What did Adam Levine, Gwen Stefani, Pharrell, and Blake Shelton think of Neil's elaborate prank, posing as 'Jurgen Vollmer'?

MANILA, Philippines – If singer and actor Neil Patrick Harris were to show up for a blind audition on The Voice, would any of the judges turn?

Judges Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Pharrell Williams, and Gwen Stefani were most definitely in for a surprise, as they were recently the victims of an elaborate prank by Neil for his NBC variety show, Best Time Ever With Neil Patrick Harris – complete with a disguise.

In the video, we see Neil go undercover as Jurgen Vollmer, the “new host of The Voice of Austria.” He tells the 4 coaches and host Carson Daly that he’s going to do a round of interviews to promote the show.

The Voice also airs on NBC, like Neil’s show. 

The hilarity continues as Neil “interviews” Gwen and Pharrell, and Adam and Blake, together.

Among the awkward moments that ensue: 

Neil (as Jurgen): Gwen, what makes The Voice such a global phenomenon? 

Gwen: People like to see dreams come true and people love music and singing. 

Neil: No Doubt. 

No Doubt is the name of Gwen’s band, and the corny joke has the judges groping for words.

In another scene, Neil tells both Adam and Blake that each one is his favorite judge, prompting Adam to say, “I thought I was his favorite!” 

Later, Jurgen appears onstage for his “blind audition” – a truly awful rendition of “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going.” 

Aside from his The Voice prank, there’s also another funny one involving Britney Spears, bodyguards, and Joe Jonas.
