According to a report by ScreenRant, the contestants competing on 'The Voice' stay in a hotel while they're a part of the show, and the hotel expenses are paid by the network. For the unversed, let us share with you that 'The Voice' is filmed in Los Angeles, and as soon as a contestant gets eliminated from the show, they have to leave fast. In an article from 2021, Cosmopolitan interviewed numerous former contestants of the show, and they candidly spoke about their personal experiences on 'The Voice.'
At that point in time, Kat Perkins, who competed in Season 6 of 'The Voice,' stated that the whole elimination process "is very abrupt." Along with this, Perkins also mentioned that the eliminated contestants are basically sent home on the next flight. Furthermore, Perkins shared that the contestants have access to psychological care, especially after they get eliminated from the show. “The minute you are eliminated, you walk from that stage and into the psychiatrist’s office for a debriefing. They make sure that you talk about it,” Perkins told the media outlet.
On the other hand, Jessie Poland, who appeared on the second season of 'The Voice,' explained, “Once you’re on the show for a while, you get money [a stipend] to go out, and catering was really great. I ate really well.” At the moment, the fans are eagerly waiting for the upcoming season of 'The Voice,' which is scheduled to premiere on September 22, 2025, on NBC. The coaching lineup for the new season includes Reba McEntire, Snoop Dogg, Niall Horan, and Michael Bublé. So mark your calendars and don't forget to tune into your favorite singing program.
