'The Voice' fans disappointed as Chance the Rapper chooses Serenity Arce over Dani Stacy during knockouts
UNIVERSAL CITY, CALIFORNIA: In the latest episode of 'The Voice', Serenity Arce and Dani Stacy from Team Chance delivered powerful performances that earned them spots in the Playoffs. Serenity performed Rihanna's 'Unfaithful' and Dani chose to sing Miley Cyrus's 'Jaded' during the Knockouts premiere.
Following their performances, the coaches offered constructive feedback, highlighting areas for growth. Shay applauded Dani's lower vocal range, recognizing its strength, while Dan praised Serenity for her emotive delivery of the song.
"Serenity, this was not as accurate of a performance as you normally give," John Legend said. "When you connect with your audience you have given them so much more of yourself than just your voice," Reba McEntire suggested Dani.
Despite Serenity's performance not meeting her usual standards, her coach Chance the Rapper made a bold decision to advance her further in the competition. He acknowledged her potential and growth, emphasizing that they outweighed the minor setback of this particular performance.
When talking about Serenity's performance, Chance said, "She does it with the professionalism and intent of someone way beyond her years." However, 'The Voice' fans believed that Dani deserved a spot on the show but did not get it. An Instagram user penned, "You should have made it, so good! 🔥👏👏."
Another user went on to say, "you got ROBBED!!!! your voice is sooo special. i woulda picked you hands down just on the tone of your voice alone! i will be here supporting you from here on out! 🤟❤️🔥 excited to listen to a whole album of your voice! 🤩." An X user said, "She was robbed."
Followed by another user who penned, "So robbed. You deserved this."
