![]() Carter was clearly the superior singer of the two, so America got it right again. These best friends were “ heartbroken” to have to compete against each other, but hey, this ain’t RuPaul’s Best Friends Voice. These second-week contestants were screwed.Ĭarter Lloyd Horne (Team Blake) vs. Man, if I were a contestant on this show, I’d definitely want my Cross-Battle to take place in week one. But poor Karly didn’t get even a hypothetical chance at redemption - her coach didn’t have a Save, and the other coaches didn’t have Steals - so there was no suspenseful countdown clock during her goodbye speech. This was another seemingly sledgehammering showdown, with Shawn belting a soulful Sam Smith ballad and Karly just scatting randomly and looking lost. WINNER: Jimmy / STOLEN: Kendra moves to Team Blake (Side note: If you’re keeping track, this was Adam’s second loss of the night, and the episode was barely past the first commercial break.) “It’s time for Kendra to come home,” Blake declared. Adam didn’t have a Save left for either LB or Kendra, but thankfully Blake, Kendra’s original coach, swooped in to use his only Steal here. Power-singer Kendra wiped the NBC soundstage floor with the oddly affected Jimmy on Monday, but somehow Jimmy ridiculously prevailed - presumably because of his boyish good looks, because it surely wasn’t because of his boyish voice. But I will say there are other contestants, less worthy than LB, who skated through the Cross-Battles this season. I do think Jej’s fresher vibe has more long-term competitive potential, so I wasn’t necessarily upset by this result. I think LB gave the stronger performance Monday, and considering how well religious songs do on The Voice, I was surprised that Jej won this round. These were the final Cross-Battles results of the season, announced Tuesday: But if there is strength in numbers, then it looks like Blake is on his way to a seventh victory. Perhaps as the Playoffs play out, this playing field will become more level. Meanwhile, the other coaches all definitely have some fodder. Three of his hopefuls - Domenic Haynes, Kalvin Jarvis, and Mari - are three of Season 16’s most interesting artists. Gwen Stefani has indicated she will not be returning to “The Voice.That doesn’t mean that Adam has no shot. She’ll join Shelton, Levine and returning coach Pharrell Williams. Season 8 of “The Voice” will premiere in early 2015, and features the return of original host Christina Aguilera. Making it four to two in Shelton’s favor, it was Boyd who emerged triumphant. The two coaches have been there since the beginning, and between them have won six of the show’s seven seasons.

Win or lose, this was the biggest platform these artists could have hoped for in this day and age. While “The Voice” has been dominant in the ratings, it has yet to create a bona fide recording star, unlike Fox’s “American Idol,” which can boast plenty of stars.Īlso Read: Pharrell Williams, Gwen Stefani Team Up For ‘Paddington’ Original Song ‘Shine’ It was just a prelude of what may come for the winner of “The Voice,” and quite frankly what NBC is probably desperately hoping will come. ![]() The singles were made available via iTunes.
