Watching “The Voice,” a television talent show, can be an incredibly stressful experience — probably not as stressful as competing! While other shows simply eliminate a certain number of contestants after each round, “The Voice” has a variety of different ways that singers compete to win the finals.
First, they must compete to get on the show through blind auditions. The judges listen to them sing with their chairs turned around. If a judge likes what they hear, they hit a button to turn their chair around. The contestant then gets some power over their own fate: they get to choose the judge that will coach them for the rest of the show.
Following a strong blind audition, 14-year-old talented singer, Brynn Cartelli, chose “American Idol” alumni Kelly Clarkson as her coach. She then progressed to the Battle Round where she won against another member of her team and moved on to the Knockout Round. In this part of the competition, Brynn would choose a song to perform in a head-to-head competition with another contestant who is revealed minutes before her performance.
Brynn sang “Here Comes Goodbye” by Rascal Flatts and gave a chilling, but wonderful performance. She showed poise, talent, and impressive singing chops. She certainly impressed the judges: “Brynn, I was so excited by the song choice, even to attack a song with [Rascal Flatts’] vocal,” said coach Kelly.
Kelly had to choose between Brynn and Jamella — only one could move on to the next round. She chose Brynn: “[She] has something really strong and super unique. Brynn will be the youngest person ever to win this show. I didn’t say ‘could,’ I said ‘will.’ ”
