Team Niall Horan singer Alexa Wildish wins 'The Voice' Season 24 Knockouts as Lennon VanderDoes gets eliminated

UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIFORNIA: Lennon VanderDoes' performance in 'The Voice' Season 24 Knockouts made a long-lasting impression on the coaches. But, the one coach who was moved the most was John Legend.

And, with NBC introducing a new twist in the show, fans wonder whether John will save the now-eliminated singer Lennon.

The coach was left sobbing on Tuesday, November 14 night's episode after Lennon was eliminated in the Knockouts. The coach said to the singer that he believed Lennon was the "underdog."

John said, "I just felt you being fully yourself and it felt so moving to me." 

Seeing John sob, Reba McEntire got out of her chair and gave him a tissue to wipe his tears. 

She joked about it saying, "Always prepared." John later told Gwen Stefani, "I'm crying right now."

With tears in her eyes as well, Gwen said, "I have tears in my eyes."

After Lennon's elimination, a fan wrote on X, "BRING LENNON BACK I BEG." "Niall and john crying is making me cry," claimed another. 

A fan speculated, "John Legend is going for the save." Another praised Lennon's performance, "Lennon . . . . Omg!! That was such a good performance!!"

NBC introduces 'new twist' to 'The Voice' Season 24

Host Carson Daly revealed a "new twist" in 'The Voice' Season 24. He said towards the end of Tuesday's episode, "We're changing the rules."

Carson claimed that each coach will be allowed to save one artist ahead of the Playoffs. The coaches can ring back singers from any team.

This will indeed raise the number of artists competing in Playoffs to be Season 24's winner. 

Who won 'The Voice' Season 24 Knockouts from Team Niall Horan?

Alexa Wildish was declared the winner of the Knockouts by the coach Niall Horan. She sang 'Believe' by Cher while competing against Lennon and Julia Roome.

After her soulful performance, she said, "I was really taken back but how much I actually relate to this song." The singer added, "I want people to hear the heart of the song."

While declaring Alexa as the winner, Niall said, "She could potentially win this."

A fan complimented Alexa's song choice, "OMG she made us FEEL that song!!!! There was REAL meaning in her words as she sang!! Wow!!" Another wrote, "I would buy her record of this today. Wow!"

"My fave from the very start. Soulful. Mmmmm," tweeted another. A fan wrote on X, "Isn’t she unbelievable! They best sound and true emotions." Another claimed Niall's choice to be "Right pick."

'The Voice' Season 24 airs on NBC on Mondays at 8 pm ET and Tuesdays at 9 pm ET.
