The Voice bid farewell to another hopeful Tuesday as the field continues to narrow and the contenders are starting to see some separation.
Or are they? Did the voters have another surprise in store?
For the second consecutive week, last Tuesday’s The Voice results saw Mark Isaiah capture the Instant Save and a last-second reprieve.
Was this the episode in which his luck finally ran out?
He’d have to talk the tightrope again, as Tuesday’s double-elimination night on NBC’s The Voice sent two artists home, not just one.
The bottom three artists all had to sing for the instant save, which only spared one of the three and sent them on to The Voice semifinals.
The remaining eight artists will then be cut to just four before the finale, in this ever-changing and seemingly random format. Anyway.
Coaches Blake Shelton, Gwen Stefani, Alicia Keys and Adam Levine were all sweating this one out, as the iTunes results were tight.
Soon, there were sighs of relief as Carson Daly announced that Team Blake’s Aliyah Moulden and Team Alicia’s Chris Blue both advanced.
America also voted to save Team Blake’s Lauren Duski and Team Gwen’s Hunter Plake and bring them through to the following episode.
The next two to earn a ticket to the semis were Team Adam’s Jesse Larson and Team Gwen’s Brennley Brown. Gwen was 2/2 Tuesday.
The last artist to automatically make it? Team Blake’s TSoul, making it 3/3 for Shelton’s remaining artists even before the moment of truth.
Singing for their lives last night?
Team Adam’s Lilli Passero and Mark Isaiah (his familiar role)and Team Alicia’s Vanessa Ferguson. Only one could prevail … or survive.
First up was Passero, singing “Stormy Weather.” Isaiah, no stranger to this position, shook things up with a take on “Sorry” by Justin Bieber.
Ferguson closed out the instant save performances with a rendition of “For Once in My Life” by Stevie Wonder in a bid to save herself.
Would she be able to get it done?
Keys and Levine both pleaded with viewers on behalf of their artists, but even Adam couldn’t rescue his man for the third time in a row.
By virtue of winning the live vote on Twitter, Ferguson survived to join The Voice Season 12’s top eight next week in the hit competition.
What do you think? Did America get it right with The Voice results? And who do you want to see triumph in the semifinals next week?
