For the longest time, 'The Voice' coach Gwen Stefani was looking to have some young girls on her team, so that she could mentor them and share with them her experiences of being in the music industry for decades. Gwen finally got what she wanted when 15-year-old contestant Larriah Jackson joined her team.

Larriah gave a beautiful performance to Jackson 5's 'I'll Be There', for her blind auditions. As soon as the young singer began her performance, it didn't take Gwen too long to realize the immense talent and potential that Larriah possessed, so she immediately decided to hit the button and turn her chair around. Luckily for Gwen, none of the other coaches turned their chairs for Larriah, so she didn't even have to fight her fellow coaches to get her on the team.



 

Gwen couldn't stop praising Larriah and described her performance as "rich, warm, and dreamy". She then turned to Blake Shelton and joked about how she had always wanted a daughter, before turning back to Larriah. When Larriah revealed that she too was from California, Gwen was over the moon, and declared that she couldn't wait to coach her, and share her vast knowledge. Blake too agreed with Gwen and admitted that both of them would have a lot of fun together.

Fans too seem excited to see what Gwen has in mind for Larriah, and how she will nurture the young performer's talent. A fan commented, "Glad Gwen got her. I have a feeling Gwen is going to make her big." Another fan wrote, "I love her, i think gwen make her perfect on next stage." "She will go far. Gwen will coach her right. BTW: Did you notice her grandmother looks just like Madea???????? 🤣 I am here for Blake and Gwen finally getting engaged. 😃 All of this," expressed a fan. Another fanshared, "Hmm pretty there at the end, but so strong in the beginning. I can't wait to see what Gwen challenges you with girl." "Omg that voice at 15 !!!! I'm so happy Gwen gave her this chance!" declared a fan.

'The Voice' Season 19 airs every Monday and Tuesday at 8/7c only on NBC.
