During the blind auditions on The Voice yesterday. ALI found a way to surprise the coaches. Not only with her singing but because she told them that she is hearing impaired and wears hearing aids.
However, there is no way any of us or the coaches would’ve known because she sang better than most of the contestants who auditioned this season.
And she is not going anywhere because her rendition of the Fugees’ Killing Me Softly got Chance the Rapper and Kelly Clarkson to turn around. Niall Horan knew he didn’t have a chance, and Blake Shelton said he wouldn’t know what to do with her because they are not the same type of music.
So who did she wind up choosing? She went with Clarkson, but I would’ve given Chance a chance. I think he would’ve nurtured her better because he works with Deafinitely Dope. Maybe he will steal her in one of the later rounds.
Either way, congrats to ALI. I can’t wait to see what you bring to The Voice.
Mark Ballas has been dancing on and off with Dancing with the Stars for 15 years. But his time with the dancing competition series has come to an end, according to People.
The dancer announced at the end of the DWTS tour this was it for him. “I’m not saying this is the end, [but] this is the last time I will be dancing with a [celebrity] partner,” he said. “And I wanted to finish this with Charli [D’Amelo], and I appreciate you guys so much. I wanna do this freestyle for you one more time. Thank you for everything. I appreciate it.”
Ballas and D’Amelio won the Mirrorball trophy this season, so their win feels like even more of a fix. I mean, she is a professional dancer that worked for Ballas’ friend Derek Hough, who was a judge on the show this season. And the series needed one of their more famous pros to return for their first season on Disney+ to generate buzz. So it was a match made to win.
Ballas competed on 20 seasons and won three times with Kristi Yamaguchi, Shawn Johnson, and D’Amelio.
Adam Levine was a coach on The Voice for 16 seasons. And it was obvious when he left the singing competition, he was not happy with the direction it was going in and the changes they made to it. Seven seasons later, Blake Shelton is leaving the show after 23 seasons.
So on Sunday night, when the Maroon 5 singer was walking the red carpet with Behati Prinsloo, Entertainment Tonight asked what he thinks of his friend leaving the show. He simply responded with, “About time,” while his wife laughed.
Then the reporter wanted to know if he misses Mr. Gwen Stefani. Levine looked over with a smirk and shook his head no. So I guess their bromance is over, and the No Doubt singer is their Yoko Ono.
I am sad that they are no longer BFFs. Because I was hoping they would go on the road together with the I’m a Little Bit Country, I’m a Little Bit Rock’n’Roll tour!
Topher Grace always plays the nice guy. But not anymore.
The actor shared a photo of himself with a tattoo shirt, shades, expanders, shaved sides, and giving us the middle finger.
He didn’t say what this look is for, but I really hope it is for That ’90 Show. Could you imagine Red’s reaction? First, he’d look at his son, go “dumb ass,” shake his head and walk away in shame. Then he would wait for Kitty to come in and laugh uncomfortably before he reacted.
