Gwen Stefani was left mesmerized by 'The Voice' Season 24 finalist Lila Forde's performance
Despite Lila Forde singing a different song than her usual repertoire as she advanced to the finals, she failed to captivate the viewers. However, it appears that Lila has left a lasting impression on Gwen Stefani.
Gwen Stefani expressed her admiration, stating that she loved Lila's "so much confidence." She was particularly impressed by how effortlessly Lila performed the song, finding it remarkable.
Gwen was enthusiastic about acknowledging that Lila possessed something beyond what was showcased on the show. This led Gwen to fervently support Lila in her quest to win the competition.
On the other hand, John Legend praised Lila's "authenticity and musicality."
Does Lila Forde have less chance to win 'The Voice' Season 24 than other finalists?
A circulating theory on the internet suggests that John's slim chances of winning the show stem from the fact that he has only one singer on his team.
With Team Niall Horan and Team Reba McEntire each boasting two singers, they are poised to have a strong chance of securing the season's title.
Let us wait for the announcement of the final result on Tuesday night to see who will win the show.
'The Voice' Season 24 Finale will be released on Tuesday, December 19 at 9 pm ET on NBC.
