It would be understandable if Christina Aguilera was upset after Tuesday’s episode of The Voice. Her final team member, Dez Duron, was sent home as the Top 8 were whittled down to the Top 6.
But while speaking to the press after the show, Aguilera walked the carpet with Duron, and wasn't worried about the soulful singer’s future.
Adam Levine and his band Maroon 5 might be a big hit in today’s music world, but it turns out TheVoice coach has been holding on to a bad experience from his early days of performing, back when the group members still were paying their dues.
On Monday’s episode of The Voice, the singer told the crowd that when his band was touring with Michelle Branch, they weren’t given a dressing room while performing at Hollywood club The Roxy.
On Monday’s episode of The Voice, the remaining eight contestants performed live for America. Christina Aguilera is holding on with just one contestant -- the handsome Dez Duron -- left on her team. Adam Levine and Blake Shelton each have two team members and Cee Lo Green has three contestants remaining.
For the second week, America’s votes determined who would stay and who would go on The Voice. All 10 of the remaining contestants performed on Monday’s show and awaited the results on Tuesday night.
On The Voice, the Top 10 took the stage to try to win over America’s hearts once more this week. As a special treat, the coaches brought in industry heavyweights including record exec Ron Fair (who first signed Christina Aguilera), country music producer Scott Hendricks and Grammy-winning singer (and former American Idol contestant) Jennifer Hudson.
Two more contestants will be voted off by America on Tuesday’s live show.
The top 12 dwindled down to 10 on The Voice on Tuesday in the first live elimination show. Of course, it wouldn't be season three without a few extra changes.
First, though each of the four coaches brought their top three team members to this stage of the competition, the two artists with the lowest votes were sent home -- no matter which team they're on. Unlike previous seasons, the coaches are not guaranteed a contestant to root for in the two-hour finale on Dec. 18.
The battle of the network reality shows resulted in positive news for ABC and some disapointment for NBC.
ABC's Dancing With the Stars took an average of 9.2 million viewers in its two hours, from 8-10:00 pm, including a 2.2 million demo share, up five percent. Castle, the Nathan Fillion-starring mystery show, averaged seven million in the 10-11:00 pm slot, with a 2.1 share, up 11 percent. The network did have NFL preemptions in Kansas City and Pittsburgh, so final ratings are subject to adjustment.
During Election Week, the live Playoffs of The Voice put the remaining contestants to the test -- performing under pressure with all of America watching, while still trying to earn their votes.
Even though the Presidential election is over, the voting has just begun on The Voice.
Skipping its usual Tuesday timeslot, the live performances continued on Wednesday night, with Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green’s team members performing in hopes of earning America’s vote.
