Idol Chatter & Voice Views

The Voice will hold its live playoffs next Monday night, featuring the Top 20 from Season 17.

That also means fans will get to vote for their favorites for the first time.

I’ll review the voting rules in a later blog.

But it appears the results will work as they have in the past: Two singers from each team will advance based on fan voting. Then each coach will have a chance to save one artist from his or her team.

The one twist: There will apparently be an instant save for a 13th spot in the finals, with the top remaining vote-getter from each team competing for that honor.

Here’s a look at the teams entering the live playoffs.
