John seems to have passed on Kinsey, Katie Rae, Jonathan and Carson. He tried to steal Holly but failed, and then David came along.

The pairings are likely not in order.

So here's the thing regarding the non steal pairings: Shadale and Jim/Sasha were already montaged, so they will be shown in full this time around. Jeremy/Xavier are the only Team Kelly pairing not on this week, and they are not gonna leave her with nothing on a 2 hr episode, so they are in full as well. Gymani/Kinsey, LiBianca/Hailey G, Hailey M/TCS, Wendy/Jonathan and Joshua/Sabrina are already being shown this week Bella/Katherine were already shown in a KOs promo. So that leaves us with two candidates for the montage: Peedy/Berritt and Lana/Carson. Both from Team Blake. Who do you think will get it?

Yup.

Hope he leads so we can see every member put a stamp on their journey so far. Thats the reason why I love GNT apart from the harmonies. All of them are great singers in their own right.

Pulling a Matt McAndrew. I think he can get it too, but its gonna hurt him a bit still.

So judging from the video, given that these are not in order, I think it will go in this order: Monday: B: LiBianca vs Hailey J: Samuel vs Brittany K: Hailey vs TCS A: Raquel vs Katie J: Joshua vs Sabrina K: GNT vs Holly Tuesday: B: Wendy vs Jonathan K: Gymani vs Kinsey A: Ryleigh vs David And next Monday: J: Shadale vs Samara A: Bella vs Katherine B: Either Peedy/Berritt or Lana/Carson K: Jeremy vs Xavier A: Jim and Sasha vs Manny B: Either Peedy/Berritt or Lana/Carson (montaged) J: Jershika vs Paris

All I know is that Team Blake is getting its first montage since S9, regardless of the pairing they choose.

Honestly, didnt think I would be this excited to hear him sing Lewis Capaldi. If he had to do a song of his (and lets face it, he was gonna do it either way), it HAD to be this one. Rasp galore.

As for the order, these are definitely messed up, unlike last week's video. Not sure who will be opening Monday, but Sam and Brittany will be the first steal pairing to go up. Holly and GNT will close Monday. Ryleigh vs David will close Tuesday. The non steal pairings will be arranged as they please. At least we know LiBianca vs Hailey is on Monday. Joshua vs Sabrina will probably be too due to her singing Ed Sheeran's song.

Samuel with Bruises. Not a Lewis fan but that song screams rasp. Perfect for him! so excited to hear it. GNT with Wichita Lineman, yes! What a song choice. Its very folksy and country, so the source might have not been a country fan, simply. Nice to see Caleb on the keyboard too. Holly with Superstar, interesting. I think she'll do well with it. Her mellow tone could bring the words to life. Wendy is gonna kill Aint No Way. Jonathan with I Can See Clearly Now. Mmm. Its a good song but not a good fit for a round like the KOs. Brittany with Best Part. A bit on an overdone song at this point, but I'm interested to see what flavor she gives it.

Bella/Katherine were already shown in a KO promo, so was Manny, and both Jim/Sasha and Shadale already have been montaged, so they are safe this round. These are the pairings in danger of getting montaged: Lana vs Carson and Peedy vs Berritt. Team Blake is getting the montage. They still have one Team Kelly pairing left (Jeremy/Xavier), and they are not gonna leave her without one on a 2hr episode next week. So I'll say they are safe.

Frankly, I dont really have a good reasoning for it, call it optimism because I do want to see Peedy and Jeremy's performances in full instead of just one. At the same time, its tricky because we have two double montage contestants that made it to KOs this season. When it came to triple montaging someone, there was just one clear victim in those seasons , just one double montage contestant that made it to KOs. And its been a while, literally 11 seasons since they pulled that off, so it would be weird, but as you say, TPTB is unpredictable, so we don't know. Since we have both Xavier and Berritt as double montages, TPTB could either give them a break and show both of their last performances in full or just pick the one they care about the least out of Peedy and Jeremy and throw them in the montage, since we all know a montaged KO is a hindrage for lives.

Like I said, I personally don't see the triplw montage happening so far, but at the same time, in a way, it wouldnt surprise me if it does happen.

Yeah, we pretty much don't have Taping 3 feedback, so no clue how its gonna go down. We knew Joseph/Van and Jose/Raine were going to be the montages these last two seasons due to the poor feedback they recieved. This season we don't know.

We wouldnt even have this conversation if they just showed all the damn pairings, but its the way it is I guess. S8 and S15 were the exceptions, but because they both had a three way KO due to a contestant boycotting. If I'm being honest, I don't see the triple montage returning. Y'all can laugh but I just don't see it. I might be mighty wrong and they could bring it back, but for now I'll stick to that.

You're probably right. It might just be me trying to take a guess since there are no real factors to give us hints for the KO montage. Unless one or more out of the 4 pairings in danger gets shown this week, we'll still have that doubt until the next one.

So I did a little check, and it turns out that throughout the seasons, all the winners of a battle that featured a steal have been shown in full on the KOs.The montages have either been the winners of a non steal battle, or steals that lost theirs. Jeremy fits the first description, so I'm lowkey starting to think he could be safe.

If we're talking montage options, the pairs that didn't end in a steal, haven't been shown yet in KO promos, and whose winners haven't been montaged are: Lana/Carson Jeremy/Xavier Peedy/Berritt Hailey/TCS The montage is coming from one of these four pairings.

And lives start on Nov 8, so its probably trolling given that some castmates have posted about flying.

Doesn't she have a gig on Nov 7?

Still no sight of Brittany/Samuel, but they can't escape premiere given that they need to follow the cronological order due it happening before GNT/Holly.

The guy revealed he won his battle on a live IG, if anything we can count on him for hints lol.

A meet and greet probably? No idea how the app is involved but we'll find out in a couple of weeks.

So I guess the "surprise" only involves Ariana then.
