Usually we have it on either Instagram or Facebook by now. Weird

It could’ve also been for Idol auditions as Francisco appears to have been in San Diego and at a hotel which may have been where the contestants were during those auditions but I’ve been unable to locate other audition sites beside Los Angeles and San Diego which were a few weeks ago so I’m unsure.

I know kind of stale to have 3 of the same coaches on since Season 16

The Voice isn't a huge time commitment as long as he's not doing a lot of other stuff. This probably means he plans to just stay in the LA area during this time.

So nothing interesting. It is a battle of solid coaches as Nick, Kelly, and Blake seem to know how to coach. John is fine but makes really poor decisions

I'm leaning towards Alicia being back rather JHud or John. Alicia is hosting an event on October 29th but isn't at the Biden event today. Her non-partisan voting event includes Kelly as a performer.

I think Jhud is a very good guess as "filming commitments" probably wouldn't make it so she was unable to do The Voice US... she just didn't have the time to travel to the UK anymore.

She did well with Jeffrey and although he’s young... he’s in the same genre type.

I wasn’t expecting Carter to be that good. He had more control than expected and I thought his tone although very high was more mature than most people his age

I would think so since they are hosting the taping

This could be a good Segway into his residency. Usher might be on. https://www.caesars.com/caesars-palace/shows/usher-the-las-vegas-residency#.X5HVdqQ8IlQ

Usher/Alicia/Blake/Kelly would be great but I doubt Alicia comes back. I think that Usher would be great coming back as he’s one of my personal favorite coaches mainly due to his mentorship of Michelle Chamuel. They did make it sound like there would be multiple switchups so maybe it’s Jhud/Usher/Kelly/Blake ... Gwen logically makes sense to come back but with the way she’s been received, I doubt they risk 2 seasons in a row with her.

Chloe is giving me a little bit of Oliv Blu vibes and I loved Oliv. I worry she won’t get votes but listen to this... she is stellar.

I think Chloe and Madeline C are the most underrated/ dark horses. Chloe was one of my favorites when I was looking at the season prior to battle round spoilers; she’s really good.

Unpopular opinion: I like Madeline Consoer. She’s got some soul in her voice and nice riffs. Soulful pop country I like better than most country though. I’m going to go as far and say she might be more of a threat than Tanner on Kelly’s team for country

I think Kelly will stay on... it’s more likely she stays then leaves for sure. But I’m betting both stay and maybe we get Alicia or Usher back and a new coach

She seems so at ease and hits the high notes easily on a pretty hard song. Yes the band is loud but her audition was probably my second favorite next to Payge.

I’m not going to reveal anything until certain.

I’ve been slacking on posting... I do have a compiled list on a doc so don’t be worried but here’s a confirmation post:

I liked Tamara's audition now that I have seen the full thing, but the belts bored me, not as much passion as Lizzo's version. Something I noticed is she had some jazziness in her voice in the verses that intrigues me. I wasn't a huge Kymberli Joye or Rose Short fan when I saw their auditions but they both became favorites of me, so I'm thinking Tamara has potential.

Yes TV Line in the past has got a special leak before. Not sure if that was just Idol where they leak a different clip then the official page

Is there some possibility that Alicia is back? I find it odd that the show would promote her performance otherwise if she’s completely done with the show. Alicia/Blake storyline??? Since there’s some drama there

Ren Patrick as expected has made the celebrity judges. She posted on her story... see you soon San Diego with her mom.

I think she’s only 15 as well

Not sure if turn around could be that quick but Laila Mach auditioned on Sep 30th virtually. And now this was 2 days ago in a hotel, says #SanDiego in the description. She’s really good.
