"The Voice" held their first ever live broadcast last night that revealed surprises, including judge Joel Madden's unusual behavior on the show. Was he drunk?

Last night's show of "The Voice" garnered Channel Nine highest rating. The show averaged 2.199 million viewers nationally, belittling other shows on the block. Standout performances on The Voice came from Fatai Veamatahau, Karise Eden, Emma Louise Birdsall and Rachael Leahcar.

However, there are speculations that the lead singer of Good Charlotte and the show's judge, Joel Madden, had some alcohol before the show causing his goofy behavior. Nevertheless, the show was a huge success.

The Twitter world was flooded with mixed thoughts and emotions about the unusual behavior of the rocker. Some mocked the judge by making remarks to the toothpick he was holding on the show last night. One posted that the toothpick was being auctioned.

Joel Madden's supporters, on the other hand, applauded the judge's performance. Many people were amazed and delighted by his rendition of My Chemical Romance's "Sing It."

Channel Nine said that Joel Madden is just nervous during the show. The network said that they cannot edit the material since it is live. Moreover, there are no takes.

Joel Madden and wife Nicole Richie were reported to be settling in Sydney for good. The two were spotted looking for schools for their children Harlow and Sparrow.

One of the great performance last night was from Chris Sebastian for his rendition of the David Guetta and Usher hit Without You, making it the most popular performance from the male contestants. Chris' brother and a judge for a rival show "X Factor" Guy Sebastian expressed his support through Twitter.
