    I never said @Someone648 hated her but he doesnโ€™t seem to love her (correct me if Iโ€™m wrong). I know he said heโ€™ll give her a shot, but he seems to have reservations about her. That being said, Iโ€™ll let him answer.

    I don't particularly like her. It's not outright hatred, like I'm sure she's generally a nice person, but I do groan when I hear about her. Admittedly, some of it is just petty beef and I'm fine with saying that, but as a whole, I'm not interested in her.

    ย 

    Not a fan of her music, I think it's all weak pop music among a large field of better female pop singers. I don't like her voice or how it's used in songs, whether or not that's her doing (the "just like nicotiiine, heroiiin, morphine" is quite literally the most painful thing I've been forced to listen to. And I'm editing this post to restate this - that's not an understatement, whenever I read "the worst song I've ever listened to," my mind has quite literally gone straight to this song). Bad Things sounded dreadful, Havana is a pain, Senorita is frustratingly bad, and she has zero other hits. I don't know much about her Fifth Harmony days but I do like some 5H songs so I don't particularly have beef there.

    ย 

    Above that, there's been all of this hype behind Latino music over the past few years since Despacito and I am HYPED about that. I don't count Camila as Latin pop - she's just pure American pop. I just have the feeling she's gonna be labelled as this Latin pop queen on the show and I just think she's a terrible representative for it. It's just gonna push more ideas about Latin pop in my eyes that don't feel right. People were already saying this would lead to more Shakira, Gloria Estefan, etc. in the thread - that's not a bad thing at all, but if I may pull a Molly Stevens for a second - it's a very narrow-minded view of what Latin music is and if they wanted a Latin artist to showcase what it could be, Camila's the wrong one to do it. I get that technically she's more successful than a bunch of these other crossover artists that I think would serve better as coaches. But this whole Latin thing she's been going for over the past few years is forced and inauthentic. I know she's Cuban, I know she speaks Spanish - none of the music she's released at all sounds like it's actually coming from that place. It all feels like it was written by someone else off of Despacito hype and the post-Despacito hype has already worn down. And that's not particularly her fault - I'll blame that more on the label, but it just feels fake and bland. I don't dig her.

    I'll give her a shot though, I'm more than willing to be proven wrong in this case.

    Honestly I hope camila isnโ€™t bullied ย by minivan just because they miss Kelly and take it out on her. She seems nice.

    Yeah, thatโ€™s IDFโ€™s job anyways ;)

    ย 

    But really, I have a loooot of complaints about Camila but Iโ€™m willing to give her a shot. Just not high expectations for her so far as a coach, thatโ€™s all.

    She can give them all Shakira songs.

    Shakira has a grip on what works for different types of Latin artists. Iโ€™m not so sure about Camila. NBC sure as hell doesnโ€™t know. Glad theyโ€™ve trusted some of the previous Latin artists with their song choices though (Mandi, Johnny, Karen, Eli, etc.)

    and not letting Blake Shelton pick Conga again lol

    Jessie J may or may not be too far fetched for ย USA audience but she gave critique that both (very) honest and quite helpful on TVAU

    ย 

    At the 3.20 mark Jessie J telling Alfie to stop the humble gimmick

    ย 

    ย 

    At the 2.36 mark Jessie J telling the Maddens that they made a bad song choice

    ย 

    At 3.42 mark Jessie J told Claire she didn't understand her voice and Ellen she undersang

    ย 

    I would love if this energy continued on the show I think it would be refreshing

    Another one worth adding is her feedback on Nazzarene Taleb vs Maddison McNamara. It looked funny but she 100% gave solid feedback.

    ย 

    If she were to hypothetically join, she WOULD need to tone it down just a tad bit to make it more palatable for the audiences, but itโ€™s about time we get someone more constructive on this show. I do think, however, Jessie and Gwen wouldnโ€™t really blend as personalities? Not saying that they need to be super in sync/matching like Kelly/JHud, but it feels particularly imbalanced. Gwenโ€™s humility vs. Jessieโ€™s boldness. At least Kelly had a mix of the humble/boldness down no problem.

    just a thought there.

    My main argument for Adam is that his return would probably result in a spike in viewership (at least short term), and they wouldnโ€™t have to take out a second mortgage on Universal Studios to get him.ย 

    This is all true. The main argument against this, however, is that they would have to allow Adam Levine back on the set.

    i mean i wonder if they can find enough people since a lot of them talk negatively about their experience

    I mean they've had somewhere around 1000 contestants so finding a couple dozen shouldn't be super hard. Even shrinking down the season to like 32 would be a great starting point. And it seems like a lot of the negative ones just didn't know what they were signing up for or had too high of expectations and were ultimately let down. I'm sure some of the contestants have matured/improved and would be fine just going on for more exposure once again.

  7. Robbie's studio is the only one that's "released" so far (the rest keep on coming up as dead links)

    but so far these are the ones I'm able to find:

    ย 

    Robbie Dolan - Breakeven

    Lachie Gill - I Guess I'm In Love

    Faith Sosene - Ain't No Way

    ย 

    Probably means Jess eliminated Emily-Jane

    Does anyone know when the new line up will be announced? ย Also, why is Kelly not coming back? What did I miss?

    ย 

    Side note: I wouldn't be surprised if the new line up is Blake, Gwen, John and Nickย 

    Nick's active on TikTok so if it were him, I feel like they would've just posted it by new. Them holding out on the 4th person does seem to point to it being someone completely new to the show, and the official release is probably a better introduction to the new coach than a TikTok trend.

    Iโ€™m extremely excited though 2 different coaches! Last time we had this was season 14?? Correct me if Iโ€™m wrong.ย 
    ย 

    When Gwen was announced I was like meh gonna still enjoy the season even though I knew what to expect from the season. (Because weโ€™ve had the same panel before)but I assumed kelly was coming back.ย 
    ย 

    But now that Kelly isnโ€™t coming back and theyโ€™re making a big deal about the fourth coach, Iโ€™m really excited for this season its already so unpredictable.

    Yeah assuming Kelly's gone, I'll 100% miss her but it's a changeup I'm willing to deal with. A nice break from the usual. Whoever comes in will hopefully be someone with kickass vocals, diverse musical ability, and a strong personality to quiet down Blake. Paging Miley, P!nk, or Kelly Rowland.ย
