Don’t look now, but Blake Shelton or Adam Levine might be on the verge of another title on The Voice. Through five seasons, they’ve coached the winner each time.
The battle rounds begin Monday night on The Voice. Meanwhile, let’s take a look back at the performances that enticed all four coaches to turn their chairs during the blind auditions.
Her audition: Ddendyl, 25, of Washington, D.C., sang “Stand By Me” for her blind audition on The Voice. Her unique tone was immediately apparent. It enticed Shakira to turn her chair early in the performance. Despite a solid performance from Ddendyl, Shakira wound up being the only coach to turn around. Shakira complimented her on…
