Her audition: Joanna Serenko, 18, of St. Louis, Missouri, performed “All My Loving” by The Beatles. She was just two lines into the song when her soulful vocal style prompted chair turns from Kelly Clarkson, John Legend and Nick Jonas. Blake Shelton eventually turned as well. Blake called it an “effortless, powerful vocal.” John says she gave him chills and sounded assured for such a young age. Nick said she blew him away. Kelly likes the vibe of her voice. Nick made a second pitch for Joanna, refusing to give up on her. Joanna chose Team Nick.

Here’s more about Joanna.
