'The Voice' Season 18: Blake Shelton gets Kailey Abel on his team and fans are certain he will win 7th time
Kailey Abel, a 19-year-old from Oklahoma, got on to the stage on tonight's episode of the blind auditions on 'The Voice'. She chose to sing 'Forever Young' for her audition and she certainly did justice to it with her raspy growly voice. All the coaches and the studio audience were seen enjoying the performance along with the studio audience but the only coach to turn the chair for Kailey was Blake Shelton. He looked mighty shocked and happy at the same time for the fact that no one else turned for Kailey.
"A lot of us have only one spot left but you have a very very cool tone," said coach Kelly. "I have one seat left and I feel its the right person I should push it for. You have got a great coach in Blake," said Nick Jonas.
"Love your growl. Have not heard this kind of voice on the show in a very long time," noted coach John Legend.
"I am very excited for Kailey... Her's is the kind of voice that you'll see in the finale and if you cant recognize that how did you get this job," Blake quipped at the other judges who didn't push their buttons for Kailey.
Fans of the show agreed with Blake and were equally surprised that a voice like Kailey was passed on by the rest of the coaches. One fan tweeted, "@blakeshelton #VoiceBlinds I'm With You Blake I cannot believe that you are the only one that turned around for Kailey, what a voice! No wonder you have such a great winning track record!!"
Another one wrote, "@NBCTheVoice OMG... Y'all are CRAZY for not turning for her!!! @blakeshelton may have just won this Season with Kailey!! That was PHENOMENAL!!!
#TheVoice2020."
They also think that coach Blake is about to win the show with Kailey on his team.
"I totally agree that you have the winner of The Voice this season! Kailey is fantastic!@blakeshelton #VoiceBlinds," wrote one fan, while another one wrote, "Finally you just may have a winner again! So excited that you chose Kailey! She is amazing so you better be the best coach ever Mr. Shelton! Congratulations to you both!"
One wrote, "@blakeshelton #VoiceBlinds you just won the voice with a one chair turn! #kailey #okey."
