Unusual performance on the show "The Voice": coincidence or chance

Vocal talent shows in the 2010s have gained a new round of popularity. The programmes broadcast on TV are gaining a lot of views, and the licensed version of the "The Voice" showseems to be in almost all countries.

The staggered nature of the competition allows us to talk about its uniquenessesand that's exactly at the blind auditions it manifests itself most of all: when famous musicians listen to novice singers and evaluate exclusively their vocal data, pressing the button means a desire to take him/her to their team. However, "The Voice" is not by chance show - on the airwaves, there's often quite amusing incidentsThe project's history and the memories of the participants.

'Got it': will.i.am singer accidentally presses button and.... gives way to talented kid

On the show. "The Voice." almost anything happens: the judges of the competition listening blindly singers, other music stars, as well as their colleagues. They (the judges) don't even realise who is singing behind them. It happens: one judge pushes the button for the otherwhen the other one doesn't ask for it. But the most striking event that can be recognised is the one where the mentor accidentally presses the button!

That's exactly the kind of mishap that happened in 2017 в UK. The leader of a hip-hop group The Black Eyed Peas will.i.amwho is now judging a vocal competition, got bored during one contestant's performance and started drawing an image on the red button with a marker.. However, what happened next shocked everyone who was on the same side as Will. The chair suddenly flipped over! The coach was just trying wipe it off with a sleeve. This twist, however, meant that the contestant was taken to the next stage, which is exactly what people come to the show for.

After the music ended and the performance stopped, the newly minted member of the crew will.i.am expected to hear positive comments about his performance. When it came to the judge, he attempted to tactfully explainwhy he turned around.

"Sometimes magical things happen... I was drawing a face on my button and then a smudge appeared there from somewhere and I was trying to erase it. And then I realise I'd already turned around because I'd pressed the button too hard... But you're pretty cool!", he said will.i.am.

Remarkably, this is not the first such story to happen to Will. He's the kind of judge who brings to the show element of surprise. In the same season, he did not recognise the artiste he had worked with before. The woman who chose the team Gavin Rossdaleand co-wrote the song T.H.E. (The Hardest Ever)However, she had not met the hip-hop artist in person prior to the auditions.

And in 2012, the button story was even more interesting: a member of the The Black Eyed Peas accidentally pressed a button while the singer was performing Alaric Greene songs Broken Vow.

"Oh no, no, no...," will.i.am whispered.

The tension was relieved by another judge, who also pushed the button in the end, and the contestant chose him over Will. Perhaps there is some irony in that.

Further fate of the contestant

A contestant from season six, Lawrence Hillhe didn't come to the show as planned. He wanted surprise to those who know and love him:

"I wanted it to be a nice gift for people who knew me!" - the singer shared with fans.

In fact, the scouts "Voices." invited him to participate in the project after one of Lawrence's appearances in Londonwhere he impressed everyone with his guitar playing and interesting vocal performance. At the blind audition, Hill sang and played guitar in his interpretation of a popular song Save Tonight groups Eagle Eyed Cherry. Regarding will.i.am and curious situation, he expressed himself as follows:

"I was a bit angry, but in the end, mission accomplished! Will and I are on good terms now," the singer told the Good Morning Britain programme.

The participant and the coach then began to prepare for the second stage - duels. Lawrence is there with another contestant. Jason Jones performed a composition Long Train Runnin' rock bands The Doobie Brothers. The audience enjoyed the performance very much, however will.i.am chose not to go for Lawrence Hill, and that's where his path on this show. over. However, he did not give up, and even won the public votewho also made her choice.

"Winning a nomination for 'The Voice' was never something I wanted, I just aspired to appear on the show, to have fun...," Hill admitted.

A bit about the judge: who is will.i.am - creative achievements and main hits
