Lizzo Joins The Voice Battles: New Twist Revealed
It's that time of year again when the familiar red chairs on The Voice are getting ready for the next phase of competition: the Battles. This season feels a bit different, and honestly, I'm really curious to see how it all plays out. The coaches — Reba McEntire, Michael Bublé, Snoop Dogg, and Niall Horan — are bringing in some incredible talent to guide their teams.
What caught my eye, and likely many others, is the addition of Lizzo as a Battle Advisor for Team Snoop. As reported by TODAY.com, this marks her first appearance on the show, and it's easy to see why she'd be such a fantastic fit. Her versatility, blending singing, rapping, and dancing with her signature infectious energy, means she can connect with a wide range of artists. I can just imagine her bringing her unique brand of inspiration to Snoop's team, helping them find their footing in these intense performances.
The structure of the Battles is also getting a shake-up this season. Instead of coaches pairing up artists and choosing songs, the contestants themselves are now making the duet partner decisions based on what they've seen during the Blind Auditions. As noted in one report, this adds a fascinating layer of self-determination to the process, allowing artists to truly champion each other. It’s a bold move, and it’ll be interesting to see if these self-made pairings lead to even more memorable performances.
Beyond Lizzo, we have other music heavyweights lending their expertise. Kelsea Ballerini is returning to support Michael Bublé's team, and she shared with "Extra" that she loves being the cheerleader without the pressure of making the final cuts. Nick Jonas is also back, this time assisting Reba McEntire's team, and Lewis Capaldi is joining Niall Horan. It sounds like a powerhouse group of mentors, each with their own distinct style and wisdom to impart. Michael Bublé himself even hinted that Snoop Dogg might be the coach to watch out for this season, which is certainly an intriguing prediction.
As we head into these Battles, it’s clear The Voice is aiming for an uplifting and supportive atmosphere, much like a family, as Kelsea Ballerini put it. With advisors like Lizzo bringing their vibrant energy, what kind of unexpected performances and breakthroughs will we witness as these artists navigate their own musical journeys?
