NBC aired The Voice Live Finale Part 1 and the judges and the fans can’t keep their calm. Five finalists, Shye, Danny Joseph, Jeremy Boloate, Sydney Sterlace, and Sofronio Vasquez got on stage for one last time on Dec 9 to give their final performances.
On Dec 10, the judges and the audience’s votes will decide who will win season 26 of the show and take home a cash prize of $100,000 with a record deal.
Last night began with a special appearance by coach Snoop’s friend, Martha Stewart. The episode kicked off with Martha’s constructive criticism of the set and helping the coaches with their overall look. Soon after, the contestants went on stage to give their first performances of The Voice finale.
Shye’s Performance in Round 1 of The Voice Live Finale Part 1
Shye from Team Bublé got on stage to give her first finale performance of season 26. She decided to take a chance with Joan Osborne’s One of Us. As Shye wrapped up her performance, Reba took over the mic,
“I have been your biggest fan, I love your voice, it is wonderful and those negative thoughts, please don’t listen to them. When they start even opening their mouth, you silence them. You don’t need to even listen to them. You’re great, you’ve got a god-given voice and you continue…please continue using it. I love it.”
“Your voice is so good that even your microphone stand was intimated by you. You were trying to get it out, it was like NO. Let me tell you never did that before that’s going to happen your whole life. Coz your whole life, this is what you’re going to do because you’re so blessed with that voice. I’m so proud of you and I love you.”
For her final performance on The Voice, Shye chose to sing Harry Styles’ Falling. Her mentor, coach Michael Bublé, called her “the truth.”
Shye’s performance was so extraordinary that it inspired Snoop Dogg to unofficially offer her a record deal. “You are exceptional at singing,” he said. “I can’t wait to see you make a real record in 2025, hopefully with my label”.
