'The Voice' season 17 is one step closer to revealing its title winner, and sadly it isn't Team Legend's Katie Kadan. Katie has been a frontrunner on this show ever since she auditioned and received a four chair turn. She chose to go with John Legend as her coach, and always made it through to the next week directly with one amongst the highest votes. 

The four finalists, Jake Hoot, Katie Kadan, Rose Short and Ricky Duran took to the stage for one final duet with a famed artist. After all the performances, the series finally went ahead to the most looked forward part of the event, the results.

Coming in fourth was Rose Short from Team Gwen, which wasn't that surprising, because she did win the last spot in the finale after her Instant Save performance. But nevertheless she was an impeccable contestant with a powerhouse voice. The third place went to Katie Kadan from Team Legend, and it was a shock because she was predicted to be either the contestant to win the season or come in second. 

Taking to Twitter post the reveal fans are devastated as they claim that the series is rigged. While some shared their thoughts on the show being rigged, a few shared that they were upset because she deserved to win. 

"Get the f*ck out of here this shit is rigged I’m done watching this shit show no way is Ricky better then Katie here goes my voice app my unfollow coming and never watching this show again. No way is he better @johnlegend you need to get her signed. So rigged #TheVoice," a fan wrote. Adding to that another shared, "DISGUSTED. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED. YALL MAKE ME SICK. KATIE KADEN BABYGIRL I AM SO SORRY #TheVoice."

"I AM DONE WITH WATCHING THE VOICE! NO WAY DID KATIE AND ROSE GET 3RD AND 4TH PLACE!!! #TheVoice," a fan shared. While another added, "Katie in 3rd?! What the hell?? I can’t quite believe what I just saw. The 2 best singers end up in 3rd and 4th place? If you don’t think this show is rigged, you’ve got your head up your ass. #TheVoice."
