The Voice (American TV series) season 27

Development On June 4, 2024, NBC announced that The Voice was renewed for a twenty-seventh season to air in the spring of 2025. On June 5, the lineup of coaches was revealed on the show's website. Coaches and host Of the four coaches from the previous season, only Michael Bublé returned, marking his second consecutive season as a coach. Coaches Reba McEntire, Gwen Stefani, and Snoop Dogg all left the panel. Former coach John Legend returns to the show following his absence in the previous season, marking his tenth season as a coach. Former coach Adam Levine also returns to the show after a ten-season hiatus, marking his seventeenth season on the show as a coach. With Levine's return, this is the first time since season 23 in which at least one coach from the inaugural season is featured. Additionally Kelsea Ballerini joins the panel for her first season as a coach. She has made multiple appearances on the show: she was featured as the "Comeback Stage" coach during the fifteenth season, served as a battle advisor for Kelly Clarkson's team during the sixteenth season, and filled in as a guest coach for Clarkson during the battle rounds in the twentieth season. Carson Daly returns for his twenty-seventh consecutive season as host. Battle and playoff advisors The teams' battle advisors were revealed on March 3, 2025. The battle advisors for this season are Coco Jones for Team Legend, Cynthia Erivo for Team Bublé, Little Big Town for Team Kelsea, and Kate Hudson for Team Adam. The playoff advisors were revealed on April 14, 2025. LeAnn Rimes served as an advisor for Teams Adam and Legend and Sheryl Crow served as an advisor for Teams Bublé and Kelsea. Marketing and promotion Ahead of the season's premiere, on January 31, the show, via its online media platforms, released a cover of the 1972 Elton John single "Tiny Dancer" performed by the coaches. Shortly prior to the season premiere, the blind audition of Ethan Eckenroad, performing Noah Kahan's "Northern Attitude", was released online. Additionally, Angie Rey's post-blind audition was featured on the Today show on January 27th during Kelsea Ballerini's interview. Later episodes saw the auditions of Tatum Scott, Jessica Manalo, Lucia Flores-Wiseman, and Alanna Lynise released online as a sneak peek for their respective episodes. ==Teams==

The show began with the Blind Auditions on February 3, 2025. In each audition, an artist sings their piece in front of the coaches, whose chairs face the audience. If a coach is interested in working with the artist, they may press their button to face the artist. If only one coach presses the button, the artist automatically becomes part of their team. If multiple coaches turn, they will compete for the artist, who will decide which team they will join. Each coach has one "block" to prevent another coach from getting an artist. This season, each coach ends up with 12 artists by the end of the blind auditions, creating a total of 48 artists advancing to the battles. The "Coach Replay" button, introduced in the previous season, returned this season. This season, however, a coach may use it if he/she did not originally turn around, but another/the other coach(es) did turn for the artist. The button allows the user to make him/herself eligible for the artist to pick. The recipients of this feature for each team were Dan Kiernan for Team Kelsea, Ricardo Moreno for Team Bublé, Tinika Wyatt for Team Adam, and Antonio Ramsey for Team Legend, respectively. Three of the four did not have any chair turns, while Dan Kiernan had two. This is the second instance since season 21's Ariana Grande that a debuting coach (Kelsea Ballerini) does not have any four-chair turns on their team, as Shakira, Usher, Gwen Stefani, Pharrell Williams, Miley Cyrus, Alicia Keys, Jennifer Hudson, Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, Nick Jonas, Camila Cabello, Chance the Rapper, Niall Horan, Reba McEntire, Dan + Shay, Michael Bublé, and Snoop Dogg have at least one four-chair turner on their teams on their respective debut seasons. Episode 1 (Feb. 3) Among this episode's auditionees was Renzo, who previously competed under his real name, Dennis Lorenzo, on the sixteenth season of American Idol, Iris Herrera, who previously auditioned unsuccessfully in season 26, Jadyn Cree, the daughter of season 25's third-place finalist, Bryan Olesen, and Angie Rey, who previously competed under her real name, Ángela Rodriguez, on the first season of La Voz Kids. Episode 2 (Feb. 10) Episode 3 (Feb. 17) Episode 4 (Feb. 24) Among this episode's auditionees was Dimitrius Graham, who previously competed on the seventeenth season of American Idol, and Olivia Kuper Harris, who previously competed on an episode of I Can See Your Voice. Episode 5 (March 3) Among this episode's auditionees was William Casanova, who previously competed on the sixteenth season of American Idol. == Battles ==

The second stage of the show, the battles, aired from March 10, 2025, to March 24, 2025, consisting of episodes 6 through 8. The advisors for this round were Coco Jones for Team Legend, Cynthia Erivo for Team Bublé, Little Big Town for Team Kelsea, and Kate Hudson for Team Adam. This marks the first time since the twenty-second season that battle advisors were featured. In this round, the coaches pit two of their artists in a singing match and then select one of them to advance to the next round. Losing artists may be "stolen" by another coach, becoming new members of their team, or can be saved by their coach, remaining a part of their original team. Multiple coaches can attempt to steal an artist, resulting in a competition for the artist, who will ultimately decide which team they will go to. Additionally, their original coach can compete for their artist if they attempt to save them. At the end of this round, eight artists will remain on each team; six will be battle winners, and one from a steal and a save, respectively. In total, 32 artists advance to the knockouts. == Knockouts ==

The third stage of the show, the knockouts, aired from March 31 to April 14, consisting of episodes 9 through 11. In the round, each coach pairs two of their artists in a singing match. The artists themselves will select the song they will sing in the round, and then their coach selects one of them to advance to the playoffs. Throughout the round, each coach can steal one losing artist from an opposing team, but do not have the ability to save their artists. At the end of the round, sixteen artists win their knockout, remaining on their teams, while four artists are stolen. In all, a total of 20 artists advanced to the playoffs. == Playoffs ==

The fourth stage of the show, the playoffs, aired from April 28 to May 4, consisting of episodes 12 through 14. The top 20 artists perform for the coaches with a song of their choosing. At the end of the round, each coach selects two of their artists to advance, creating a total of 8 playoff artists advancing to the live shows, just like season 23 and the previous season. However, each coach is also granted a 'super save', last used in season 24. While it was originally reported that each coach could bring one formerly eliminated artist, regardless of any team, the rules were changed so that it must be from their own playoff team, for the live shows. In total, 12 artists will advance to live shows. Like season 6, 13, 23, 24, 25, and the previous season, the playoffs were not contested live. They were prerecorded and taped at the same stage as the prior two rounds, hence the lack of an interactive viewer voting component or a subsequent results episode. Teams Adam and Kelsea performed on the first episode, while Teams Bublé and Legend performed on the second episode. This round features two mega mentors dubbed "playoff advisors". Former Voice Australia and Voice UK coach LeAnn Rimes served as mega mentor for Teams Adam and Legend, and Sheryl Crow served as mega mentor for Teams Bublé and Kelsea. == Live shows ==

Week 1: Top 12 – Semi-finals (May 12–13) The Top 12 performances comprised episodes 15 through 16. The Top 12 artists, three from each team, performed on Monday, with the results following on Tuesday. The top four artists were saved by the public's vote, while the four artists with the fewest votes were immediately eliminated in the competition and the middle four contended for the remaining spot in next week's finals via the Instant Save. This is the first season since season 17 where the bottom artists are instantly eliminated and the middle artists compete for the Instant Save. With the advancement of Jaelen Johnston, Kelsea Ballerini became the thirteenth new coach to successfully bring their team to the finale, the first being Usher (Michelle Chamuel in the fourth season), the second being Alicia Keys (Wé McDonald in the eleventh season), the third being Kelly Clarkson (Brynn Cartelli in the fourteenth season), the fourth being John Legend (Maelyn Jarmon in the sixteenth season), the fifth being Nick Jonas (Thunderstorm Artis in the eighteenth season), the sixth being Camila Cabello (Morgan Myles in the twenty-second season), the seventh being Chance the Rapper (Sorelle in the twenty-third season), the eighth being Niall Horan (Gina Miles also in the twenty-third season), the ninth being Reba McEntire (Ruby Leigh and Jacquie Roar in the twenty-fourth season), the tenth being Dan + Shay (Karen Waldrup in the twenty-fifth season), the eleventh being Michael Bublé (Sofronio Vasquez and Shye in the twenty-sixth season), and the twelfth being Snoop Dogg (Jeremy Beloate also in the twenty-sixth season). Additionally, Johnston also becomes the first 'super save' recipient to make it to the finale. Also, this season marks the first time in non-guaranteed back-to-back seasons that each coach has at least one artist to represent them at the finale (seventh overall time). Additionally, with the advancement of Lucia Flores-Wiseman, this is the first time since the thirteenth season that Adam Levine has an artist representing his team in the finale. With the advancements of Jadyn Cree and Adam David, this is the second consecutive season where Michael Bublé has two artists representing his team in the finale, following Sofronio Vasquez and Shye in the previous season. Additionally, Bublé became the second coach, after Reba McEntire to bring two artists to the finals in their respective first two seasons. Week 2: Finale (May 19–20) The season finale ran through two nights, Monday and Tuesday, May 19 through 20, 2025, comprising episodes 17 through 19. The Top 5 performed on Monday, with each artist performing an up-tempo song and a ballad for the title of The Voice. At the episode's conclusion, the overnight voting for the season's winner began. The following night, on Tuesday, the finalists performed a duet with their respective coaches before the results of the public vote were announced, and the winner of the season was named. Adam David was named the winner of the season, marking Michael Bublé's second win as a coach, with Bublé becoming the fourth coach to win multiple consecutive seasons, following Blake Shelton's consecutive wins from seasons 2 to 4, Kelly Clarkson's consecutive wins in seasons 14 and 15, and Niall Horan's consecutive wins in seasons 23 and 24. With David's win, Bublé became the third coach (after Clarkson and Horan) to win their first two seasons. David is also the second winning artist to be saved by the Instant Save, following Bryce Leatherwood in season 22. Additionally, David became the third winner in the history of the show to have been a one-chair turn in blind auditions, following Chris Blue and Jake Hoot in seasons 12 and 17, respectively, the second outright where every coach could turn after Hoot in season 17, and the first to do so with a male coach, that of Bublé. This was the second time after season 14, where the final two artists were on teams of the coaches in the "middle chairs". ==Elimination chart==
