'The Voice' Season 18 Episode 2: John Legend steals Zach Day from Kelly Clarkson, fans call it perfect union
John Legend steals old school singer Zach Day from Kelly Clarkson, and fans call it the right choice.
'The Voice' Season 18 returned with Night 2 of the blind auditions on Tuesday, and the coaches get ready for a friendly rivalry as they battle to get the best singers on their team. Carson Daly returns as the host, with Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson, and John Legend returned to their chairs, alongside Nick Jonas who replaced Gwen Stefani this season.
Before we could get a good look at this particular contestant, we would've sworn that the voice was coming from a black woman. Stunned by the smooth and soulful voice, we were all in for a surprise the second John turned his chair with his lights turned on to reveal Zach Day.
The 25-year-old singer performed his rendition of 'Weak' and John wasted no time in pressing his button for Zach. Kelly followed suit and couldn't believe he was white. Hailing from Kentucky, Zach grew up in a little farm. He shared that he was made fun of because he was gay, but his parents were supportive. His friends call him Gaylor Swift and Gaylee Musgraves.
