on Oct 23, 2018
Five years after taking American Idol head-on, this famous celebrity vocalist joins the ranks of Idol alums Kelly Clarkson and Jennifer Hudson for a whole new part of NBC’s 15th Voice season.
During the latest season of this world-famous singing competition, many new changes have been made beyond last season’s “Block” button, and they include a whole new 5th coach and the “Comeback Stage.”
