  • Christina Aguilera and Lady Gaga Sing on ‘The Voice’

    Christina Aguilera and Lady Gaga sang together for the first time ever on The Voice finale Tuesday night, and in addition to treating fans to a dazzling performance, likely helped to squelch rumors about a feud between the two.

    “I was really excited because The Voice called and wanted me to perform on the finale and I obviously can’t refuse,” Lady Gaga said following the show. “It’s such an amazing show and I said, ‘I’ll do it, but I want to know if Christina will do it with me.”

    The two ladies wore shiny, sparkling outfits as they sang Lady Gaga’s ArtPop track, Do What U Want.

    Christina Aguilera was thrilled with Lady Gaga’s suggestion they collaborate.

    “This is the first time we’ve ever met and I have to say, when I heard she wanted to collaborate I said, ‘Of course! Lady Gaga!’ I’ve been waiting to meet her. She’s such an innovative artist and a risk taker and as a fellow female, I have so much respect for that,” she said. “She’s the most down to earth real person that I’ve ever met in this business. Female to female in this industry, it’s really hard to find that kind of a person.”

    She then said to Lady Gaga, “I love you girl, and you deserve everything that you’ve earned.”

    Lady Gaga spent some time getting to know a little something about Christina Aguilera’s The Voice contestant Jacquie Lee prior to the show. Lee, who came in as runner-up to winner Tessanne Chin, is a vocal powerhouse at just 16 years old.

    She tweeted about the young singer prior to the show’s finale.

    Aguilera immediately responded.

    It certainly looks like everything is beyond cool between Christina Aguilera and Lady Gaga, and after hearing them perform together on The Voice Tuesday night, fans must be hoping for the opportunity of a redo. Their styles and strong voices definitely made them a dynamic duo on the stage–and their outfits and bleached blonde hair were simply the icing on the cake

  • Tessanne Chin Wins Season 5 Of The Voice

    Tessanne Chin Wins Season 5 Of The Voice

    Jamaican back up singer Tessanne Chin has won the most prestigious singing title in the United States. After a long journey, Tessanne was crowned the season five winner of The Voice.

    Tessanne admitted that she was almost at the point of giving up on her singing career before she landed a spot on the NBC singing competition. “I was literally at the end of a road, you know, and coming to a place in my life where I was like, am I going to keep doing this and feeling like I’m not getting anywhere? Or am I going to give this another shot? And thank God, thank God I was able to give it another shot,” she said.

    Tessanne credits her win to her family and friends back home in Jamaica, along with her new family and friends here in the U.S. And let us not forget, her coach and mentor Adam Levine. “It’s just been an amazing journey and I could not do this without the little island of Jamaica,” Chin said before her final performance. “But I most importantly could not do it without the amazing new family and supporters I have here in the U.S. Thank you for accepting me and thank you for bringing me this far.”

    Luckily for Tessanne, Levine decided to change his approach this season, and give his team as much support and guidance as possible. “In the seasons past where I have kind of fallen short in my opinion, if I’m looking at it analytically, it’s by not being able to give enough because I’ve been super busy,” Levine explained. “So I tried to kind of thin things out so I could devote most of my time to just get to know these guys and instill them with the confidence that they needed to win.”

    While Tessanne may still be letting the news sink in, I don’t think anyone had any doubts that she would be this season’s winner, including her coach Adam. “You are just capable of anything and it blows me away,” Adam said after Tessanne belted out Whitney Houston’s I Have Nothing. “I know in my mind and heart you are the winner of this show.”

    When host Carson Daly revealed Tessanne as the winner, she burst into tears and then took the stage for one last performance. Not only did Chin win a recording contract, she will also be collaborating with Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic. When asked how it felt to be the new winner, Tessanne replied: “It is out of body. I feel like, is this really happening, you know? This can’t be real. Like unbelievable. Unbelievable.”

    The sixth season of The Voice will premiere on February 24, 2014, with Shakira and Usher returning as coaches.

  • The Voice Season 5 Crowns A Winner

    The Voice Season 5 Crowns A Winner

    And we have a winner! Tessanne Chin, from team Adam, has been crowned the winner of the fifth season of The Voice.

    After belting out her rendition of Whitney Houston’s I Have Nothing, it was no shock that Chin would be this season’s winner. Her coach Adam Levine even made the comment, after her performance on Monday night, that he knew in his mind and heart that she would be the winner. Apparently Levine’s intuition is right!

    “It’s sacred ground. We lost Whitney too early. So many people stay away from her because it’s incredible, one of the best vocals ever recorded … impossible to replicate,” Levine said after Chin’s final performance. “You are just capable of anything and it blows me away. I know in my mind and heart you are the winner of this show.”

    Before the finale, Chin talked about her journey on the show, and how she couldn’t have done it without the support of her friends and family in Jamaica and her new friends and family in the United States. “It’s just been an amazing journey and I could not do this without the little island of Jamaica,” Chin said. “But I most importantly could not do it without the amazing new family and supporters I have here in the U.S. Thank you for accepting me and thank you for bringing me this far.”

    Will Champlin, also from team Adam, was announced as the third runner up, and then it all came down to Jacquie Lee, from team Christina, and Chin. It was an emotional moment as the two final girls stood on the stage anxiously waiting for the announcement that would change one of their lives forever. When host Carson Daly revealed the winner, Chin burst into tears and then took the stage for one last performance. Not only did Chin win a recording contract, she will also be collaborating with Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic.

    Shakira and Usher will return for the sixth season of The Voice that premieres on February 24, 2014.

  • The Voice: Will Adam Levine Win?

    The Voice: Will Adam Levine Win?

    The Voice has been dominated by Adam Levine’s team for the past two weeks. This week saw the Maroon 5 front man reign supreme for the third week in a row, when all three of his team members were moved along to next week’s competition. Is it possible that Blake Shelton won’t win this season of The Voice?

    On Tuesday night, Tessanne Chin, Will Champlin and James Wolpert–all from Team Adam–were saved and moved on to next week’s competition. Jacquie Lee from Team Christina and Cole Vosbury from Team Blake were saved as well. That left Cee Lo Green’s only remaining contestant, Caroline Pennell, in the bottom three, along with Team Christina’s Matthew Schuler and Team Blake’s Ray Boudreaux. After yet another questionable Twitter save, Matthew Schuler was spared, and Caroline and Ray were sent home.

    This means Cee Lo Green is out of the game. He knew that might be coming, and mentioned before Caroline Pennell was sent home that he was used to being the underdog.

    “Don’t worry about me because I’m always affectionately the underdog,” he told Carson Daly. “It’s all good with me.”

    Blake Shelton has one contestant left in the competition and Christina Aguilera has two. It’s uncertain if Adam Levine is happier about the possibility of winning or the possibility of Blake Shelton losing. Either way, Levine is looking pretty happy these days, as it’s the best season he’s had yet on The Voice.

    Twitter followers seem sure that Team Adam will win this season of The Voice.

    How might Blake Shelton fare if he doesn’t win his fourth season of The Voice? He will certainly never hear the end of it if he loses to Adam Levine, and the chances of that happening are looking better all the time.
