    I know I'm like super late but a huge congrats to Girl Named Tom πŸ†πŸ₯‡πŸ†! They made history in this show.Β TheyΒ deserved it no matter what other people say. I can't wait to hear more music from them.Β 

    -

    I just noticed that Kelly wins every long season the show has have and she doesn't just win with a normal winner. She always makes history with an artist. πŸ˜‚

    Β I always root for all Team Kelly contestants. I don't care who wins so long as it's from Team KellyπŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

    I think it’s because Idol focuses on the contestants, not the judges. I don’t really buy that a big part of the audience are young people, someone like Laine wouldn’t have won if that was the case. I would argue both shows share the same audience.

    The Voice doesn't care about their contestants' post career. They just want a good show. By far, they've been doing good despite the declining ratings. They managed to beat American Idol in the ratings game and has been nominated for Emmys consistently. Meanwhile, American Idol.... i don't know her

    I disagree tbh. With idol at least, a big part of the audience are young people so they react much better to current stuff than The Voice's audience or at least the people who react better to it are a decent part of the audience to the point where it doesn't feel worthless to try to go that route. That's why every contestant who makes lives there usually ends with +100k followers and the frontrunners can even cross 300/400k, etc.

    It doesn't matter whether they gained significant number of followers after the show. They are still not as successful as past alumni like Kelly, Jennifer, Carrie or from other show's contestants like the members of 1D and Little Mix. Reality singing competitions right now can hardly produce successful artists, they're just for entertainment now. American Idol now really makes me yawn. I prefer The Voice. I enjoy the banter with the coaches and how competitive they get with each other. Entertainment value would go to the voice, hands down

    In conclusion. The Voice is not a good platform if you want to try to make it mainstream, its only an entertainment show for southern housewives and grandmas. They won't care after you are eliminated or win the show, better off just not auditioning lol.

    Applies to all reality singing competition nowadays. Well, Americal Idol produced Gabby Barrett. However, the succeeding contestants really didn't make a career out of the competition. Gabby Barrett wasn't also a huge global star like that of Kelly, One Direction, or Carrie Underwood. If you want to make it big, you really have to do it yourself, produce your own music or find a good manager

    Re Lauren Duski’s season:

    Lauren Duski dominated itunes WAY more than GNT. She was leading on itunes throughout the lives by far bigger actual sales numbers. Every week. Β She ENTERED itunes at #1 in the finale (did not slowly climb) with DejaVu and stayed there for a week with 60 000 sales on the first day (more than double Chis Blue’s sales who dropped faster even after he won)

    She DOMINATED itunes (which counted as votes at the time) and it wasn’t even close. But Chris had more views on YouTube overall.

    Β Chris must have really impressed the casual voters in a finale with double the number of viewers we have now. And he did not get the β€œhate” that Wendy is getting on social media.

    In fact, Gwen is the one that copped an incredible amount of hate from country fans that season.Β 

    Β 

    Β 

    It's understandable that she would have more sales compared to GNT. iTunes ranking mattered that season. If the iTunes bonuses were a thing this season, I could see GNT having the same level of dominance on the charts as that of Chloe Kohanski in S13.
