The Season 9 cast on The Voice was one of the show’s youngest ever with 11 singers under 18 advancing from the blind auditions.
Now only one remains: Emily Ann Roberts, 17, who will represent Team Blake in The Voice finals this week.
The young woman from Knoxville, Tenn., auditioned with Lee Ann Womack’s “I Hope You Dance” and wound up with Adam Levine and Blake Shelton trying to convince her to join their teams.
Emily recalls that Adam was quite convincing, but says she simply had to select Blake.
It turned out to be a wise decision. She needed Blake’s save to survive the live playoffs.
But she certainly earned her spot in the final. In five weeks of live performances, she has hit the Top 10 on iTunes four times.
Last week, she also had the site’s number one country single with her version of Dolly Parton’s “9 to 5.”
Here’s a look back at Emily Ann’s performances on The Voice.
