Jaffy Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) I’m bored so I’m posting this. Who is the most famous contestant pre-show? I:E: Esera Tualo was in season 13 and he was a professional football player. Has anyone from an international version been like royalty or an A-lister celebrity? Also Happy Holidays!

Hamza Tufail Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) Famous? Christina Grimmie Billy also had some success as a young country artist. "One Voice" made it to the top 20 on "Billboard Hot Country songs" chart and top 40 on the "All-genre billboard Hot 100" chart. It was nominated for Grammy as well in 2001. He also opened up for Billy Ray Cyrus. Idk how famous he was, but at least Blake and Miley recognised him, so I think he kinda fits here as well.

Archanium Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 - Wendy Moten - Todd Michael Hall (Vocalist of Riot-V) - Cam Anthony - Lynnea (YT famous ?) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JodiRose Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 I could guess John Holiday from S19. I think he was part of some opera company prior to The Voice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy was probably the most “famous,” as far as people remembering him. Esera played for my favorite NFL team for 5 years, so I remembered him, but he wasn’t a star in the league. I had never heard of Grimmie. Outside of YouTube, I’m not sure she qualified as “famous.” Edited December 25, 2022 by TeamAudra 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misirlou Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Cassadee fronted Hey Monday. Probably not really "famous" per se, but she likely came to the show with an already established fanbase. TMH fronted Riot V. Same case as Cassadee. And of course there's Wendy, who had a big single. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nytsch Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Paula DeAnda comes to mind She had a legitimate US hit with Walk Away. Can’t remember anyone else auditioning who had such success (at least in the pop realm) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Blake wasn't going to let her go anyway, but she was also just that good. That said I do think Paula's battle was an improvement over her... uh, messy BA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allistr Posted December 25, 2022 Share Posted December 25, 2022 (edited) Dia Frampton was a member of Meg and Dia before the show, entered the show with the initial intention of promoting a new album. The duo were famous for "Monster" Edited December 25, 2022 by Ottoxxx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamAudra Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Meghan Linsey had a top 10 country hit as part of Steel Magnolia. Honestly, I don’t think many of the names mentioned, including Meghan, rise to the level of “famous.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hsamid Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 I feel like the YouTube famous singers like Christina and Lynnea are more well known then the ones that had a hit one time. They're probably the closest you can get to "famous" pre show contestants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy had a hit, but he wasn't nearly as famous as her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloorWax Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Lynnea has upwards of 1.5 million subscribers nowadays. Much more than most contestants. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlakePointingHisFinger Posted December 26, 2022 Share Posted December 26, 2022 Chris Trousdale (rip), a no-chair from S3 was part of the boyband Dream Street with Jesse McCartney so he was pretty famous pre-season i suppose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhapsody99 Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Angel Taylor from S2 came on the show pretty soon after she parted ways with Aware Records/Columbia Records. Her song "Like You Do" was played a lot on radio stations in L.A., but I'm not sure how popular it was generally. I actually saw her battle round performance live, I was confused how she could be eligible to be on the show since I wasn't aware she was no longer a major label artist. Several fellow contestants on her season were fans of hers before they met on the show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamAudra Posted December 27, 2022 Share Posted December 27, 2022 Let’s not forget… according to Facebook, Morgan Myles was already famous with a net worth of anywhere from $5 million to $200 million. This was literally posted hundreds of times on there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
