April 25th, Day 25 of the #AtoZChallenge and V is for Voice…The Voice that is
The Voice 
Yes I know officially it doesn’t start with a T, but there is a V and let’s just let it slide, ok? :0) Pretty please? Aww… Thank you, Whew! So here’s the jist of it - The voice hosted by Carson Daly and consits of four famous musicians ( Christina Aguilera, Cee-Lo,Adam Levine & Blake Shelton), search for the best voices in America and mentor these singers to become artists. America decides which singer will be worthy of the grand prize- being crowned The Voice.
How does The Voice work? Here’s the layout:
1. The Live Rounds begin with 24 artists who have moved on from the Battle Rounds, six on each coach’s team.
2. Each week, artists perform live and your vote helps decide who will move to the next round of competition
3.In the finale, only four artists remain – and your vote determines who will crowned The Voice!
There are the Blind auditions, the Battle rounds and then America votes.
Now the Details:
At the Blind Auditions, artists across the country appear at the open casting calls, the best of them are then invited to the Blind Auditions in L.A. From there they build a team selection, coaches, Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine each have to recruit a team of 12 artists. How it works is the coaches listen to just the artist’s voice (chairs turned around) and if the coach likes the singer, they push their button and it turns their chair around, revealing the artist to them. If more than one coach turns around, the artist then chooses which coach he or she most wants to work with. If only one turns, the singer automatically is on their team.
For the Battle rounds, which lasts over four weeks. Each coach must reduce his or her team from twelve artists to six by battling them against each other. After watching their duos perform, each coach then chooses who will move on to the live rounds. In the Live Rounds, America then gets to vote. The Live Rounds begin with 24 artistswho have moved on from the Battle Rounds. There are six on each coach’s team. Each week, the artists perform live and our votes help decide who moves on to the next round of competition. In the end, the finale, only four artists remain and America’s vote (meaning us) determines who will be crowned The Voice!
Sounds pretty cool doesn’t it! Who’s team are you on? Are you a fan? I admit, I have not watched this season, but that is a yet… thanks to the wonderful On Demand, I will be. Just focusing on American Idol (uh-oh, do I hear The Voice police? ) right now :0) So… The voice is the big hype and now with Smash behind it, it seems NBC isn’t doing to shabby. So share your thoughts and opinions, would love to hear them!
Haven’t jumped on The Voice wagon yet…no worries you can start now… The Voice is still going and airs on Mondays 8/7c & Tuesdays9/8c on NBC (Channel 4 in L.A. and in FL its Channel 11- its one of the top 13 channels :0)
Happy Wedensday and Happy singing with The Voice,
A.D.
