Who is Cam Anthony? 'The Voice' singer met Obamas, sang on Ellen DeGeneres Show and has 54K YouTube followers
Cam Anthony made his show debut on Season 20 of 'The Voice' but he's no stranger to the spotlight. Hailing from Philadelphia, the singer performed 'Lay Me Down' for the season premiere.
He may have increased his fan base with the show, but he already has a set of followers thanks to his music videos on YouTube. In fact, he gained some more when he was introduced to the Ellen DeGeneres Show.
The 18-year-old has a lot to boast about in terms of his career highlights already. His parents discovered he could sing at the age of four and eventually moved on to singing for TV commercials. In fact, Anthony was even invited to the White House where he met Obamas.

With the number of things he's achieved already, it's not surprising that Team Blake Shelton wanted to have him on the team. He is the first entrant onto the team in the competition. However, there was quite a battle over the young singer.
Coaches Nick Jonas and John Legend turned their chairs around too. However, Jonas blocked Legend from choosing Anthony. Blake Shelton was the next judge to face the singer who promised that he will not pick anyone else from a similar genre.
Shelton also tweeted "Let’s do this @CamAnthony ! Your lane on #TeamBlake is all yours buddy! #TheVoice." Fans also seem excited to see Cam Anthony growing into his own.
One fan said, "I pushed my button for @CamAnthony ! #TheVoice that voice is HEAVENLY. "
