Coach Miley Cyrus paired Ali and Courtnie up for a performance of "Hit Or Miss" earlier this week.

Miley chose to keep Ali on her team because of her powerhouse voice and style. However, Courtnie wowed with her "rockstar energy," so both Alicia Keys and Blake Shelton wanted to steal her for their own teams.

Blake said Courtnie is extremely entertaining and struts her stuff like a rooster, which everyone laughed at. Alicia took a more serious approach and told Courtnie her voice is beautiful and raw. After listening to both sides, Courtnie chose to join "Team Alicia."

The day after her battle, Courtnie talked to Reality TV World about her experience on the show thus far.

Reality TV World: What has it been like working with Miley and now Alicia? Are you happy to have joined Alicia's team when Blake was also fighting for you?

Courtnie Ramirez: Working with both Miley and Alicia has been great. [Stolen artists] get the best of both worlds. They're both amazing artists. They both have an ear for music. They are both talented in different ways.

And I just think that learning and spending time with Miley and Alicia, it's been great. Like, I've learned a lot from Miley and I don't think it's been a rough transition at all. Because they're all very talented and I'm just really honored and blessed to have this opportunity and just being able to work with them has been great.

Reality TV World: How do the two coaches differ in terms of their teaching methods and advice?

Courtnie Ramirez: Working with Miley and Alicia, I would have to say Miley is more hands on and Alicia is very inspirational. Working with Miley -- that song "Hit or Miss" me and Ali [sang], it's really punchy and it's really energetic and I got to use a lot of my range.

But now just working with Alicia, she is -- they both have different approaches and I think it's so cool that I'm getting to experience that.

Alicia has been telling me to explore more of my lower register that I have, and Miley, she was like, "All right. Punch this!" So, I think yes, because I've worked with both of them, they both have different approaches. So, it's been great.

Also during the conference call with reporters, Courtnie discussed what she thought her chances were of staying on the show when battling Ali.

Tell me what you were thinking going into your Battle and why you ultimately chose to join "Team Alicia."

Courtnie Ramirez: Just going back to the moment of Ali and I's battle, it was crazy. It was so much fun. But me and Ali prayed, and we were just like, "Okay look, neither of us are going home. We're both going to stay on this show."

And we both had that mindset that we were going to stay on the show. So, me and Ali looked at it as a duet, like it was never a competition. It's just two people that love music and love singing. So, when Miley picked Ali, I believed I left everything out on that stage and that I had hope that I was going to get stolen.

And, then right when I got done telling Miley just, "Oh, my gosh, thank you for everything," Alicia and Blake both hit their buttons to steal me and, oh my gosh, it was -- I'm just reliving it right now. It was so great, like, it was so unbelievable.

But the reason I picked Alicia is because during my Blind [Audition], she was one of the coaches that turned around for me. And I just saw that she believed in me.

And Blake, he is such a great artist, but I just picked Alicia because she's great. And I love Miley and Ali both so, so much. But, yes, I'm now on Team Alicia and I'm so excited.

What has life been like for you now that you're on The Voice? Are you feeling famous?

Courtnie Ramirez: I would have to say in my little hometown of Vine, Texas, it's like everyone comes up to me and just says, "Oh my gosh. You're on The Voice." And, "Can we take pictures?"

And being from a small town, it's kind of like people have been telling me and giving me the title, "Oh my gosh. You're like the star of Vine or something." Vine conversation. But, I've been attracting like little girls and little boys and they just come up to me and ask me for pictures and autographs, and that just gives me so much joy.

It's just an honor and a true blessing that little girls and little boys are looking up to me and just -- it's been great. It's different, I have to say. But, I love it. It's amazing.
