Gwen Stefani has had several hits with No Doubt and as a solo singer. So does she think the coaches would turn their red chairs for her if she were a contestant on The Voice instead of sitting in one of those magical chairs?
“I would never get a chair turn. There’s no way,” the singer tells Drew Barrymore tomorrow on the daytime talk show. “Because this is the thing about ‘The Voice,’ the whole thing is just, it’s very different than watching someone sing a song and that’s the whole point. That you’re eliminating any of those other sensory things. You’re just hearing the voice. And I feel like my voice has been, it’s like a character voice. Some of these singers are so technically incredible that come on the show. They’re so gifted as singers. So I don’t know if a show like ‘The Voice’ I would get a chair turn. Like, I feel like I could get someone to listen to it on the radio, but it’s just different.”
I have to admit, she is right. The few times I have heard her sing on the singing competition, I couldn’t get over how bad her voice is. It works well for what she does, and that is all she can do. Sorry Mrs. Blake Shelton, but you said it first.

and got it wrong as usual…
she was already in 80s in better live act band/better live performer than all those bland/sterile/boring technical voice trash people combined…..
it’s the age old thing vocals don’t = singer/performer
