šŸŽ¤Ā ā€œThe Second She Started Yodeling… The Room Froze.ā€ ā€˜The Voice’ Coaches Didn’t Expect This Blind Audition

The VoiceĀ continued on Monday night (March 2) as night two of Blind Auditions kicked off for Season 29, ā€œBattle of Champions.ā€

Former winning coaches Kelly Clarkson, Adam Levine, and John Legend have all returned to take their seats in the iconic red chairs. The three superstars have just one goal: to prove that they’re the ultimate champion coach.

It’s the first time the show has ever done something like this, so the pressure is higher than ever. Because of that, contestants really have to bring their best. If they want to move on and land a spot on a team, they need to stand out and earn that very important chair turn.

One contestant viewers met, named Blair Elbert, understood that, so she decided to show off a surprising talent of her own during her audition.

The 28-year-old country singer decided to take things in a different direction for her time on stage. Instead of choosing a modern hit, she went old school and performed ā€œWide Rollin’ Plainsā€ by Rosalie Allen.

What really surprised everyone, though, was that at the end of the song, Blair broke out into a full yodeling solo. Her performance earned her a chair turn from Kelly Clarkson.

Before Kelly spoke with her new team member, the other coaches shared their thoughts on Blair’s performance and explained why they chose not to turn their chairs.

ā€œI did not turn…There was a lot going on,ā€Ā Coach John Legend began with his feedback.Ā ā€œIt was hard for me to keep up, honestly. So I was like ā€˜Let me not touch this, let me leave this to Kelly, she’ll probably figure it out.ā€™ā€

And although coach Adam Levine is hoping toĀ get a country singer on his teamĀ this season, he says that as soon as he heard Blair yodel, he knew she would be a better fit with Kelly.

ā€œIt’s where you should be, and I’m really happy for that,ā€Ā he says.

Then, it was Kelly’s turn.

ā€œI love the texture of your voice,ā€Ā she said.Ā ā€œAny time the yodeling comes in, I’m down. Because it does mean you have an element of control, especially with your breathing.ā€

Kelly explained that the main reason she pressed her button was that she kept thinking about Blair performing slower songs. If she could handle such a fast-paced track in her audition, Kelly believes she has a lot of potential moving forward.

ā€œEverything that you showed me was what excited me to turn my chair around. I’m so stoked. Welcome to Team Kelly,ā€Ā she added.

As for fans watching at home, they were super excited that Kelly decided to give Blair a chance on her team. Many left comments praising the singer’s unique audition. A few messages left include:

ā€œWow she’s amazing! Terrific performance yeee hawwā€
