NBC’s ‘The Voice’ results: Was Kat Perkins, Audra McLaughlin, or Sisaundra Lewis eliminated?
You knew that there were going to be some surprises that took place on “The Voice” with three contestants going home this week … but did you think that the surprises were going to be quite like this?
Some results were predictable, as iTunes frontrunners Christina Grimmie and Josh Kaufman each managed to advance into the next round of the competition. However, Kat Perkins was in danger despite her having the third-best performance of the week on the sales chart with “Get Lucky.”
This twist was really just ridiculous, since you knew that you would be losing at least a couple of good singers who didn’t deserve to go home. Sure, nobody thought that Delvin Choice or Audra McLaughlin could go far, but putting Sisaundra Lewis in jeopardy, or Kat after what we personally thought was a great performance? Worthy of an eye-roll. Also worthy was seeing Jake Worthington not in danger despite giving a very generic performance of “Hillbilly Deluxe.”
So who was the artist that was eventually offered the #VoiceSave from the public? Going into the vote, we felt like it was pretty obvious that it was going to be Sisaundra getting the love. She’s just too good not to, and she had the support of so many on social media (and other ventures).
However, this is when we were hit with another surprise: Kat is saved! We don’t love the choice, even if she was awesome last night. Sisaundra has been better, and now Blake Shelton shockingly only has one singer left. This was a tough night for him, and Jake Worthington’s not winning this thing. Grade: C- (for the twist alone).

OKAY people lets not get ridiculous! To those that thought Sisandra should have stayed in- yes she has an impressive voice, there is no doubt. But that is not the whole point. We each have opinions- so to sort all the opinions among the nation, there is a public vote to show what kind of ‘interest’ there is to the ‘type’ of music style they choose to sing. As she went along- though her voice was impressive- she did not excite people to vote or to want to buy her songs or even the music she may potentially sing after the show. She is great at standard Motown 40-45 yr old songs, but who is going to buy that anymore? Not many as shown by the iTunes ranking…we’ve already had an Aretha Franklin, and a Tina Turner. Also, her voice was waning on the last song, she was weaker, sounded rougher than usual-maybe too much practice? The other top singers seemed stronger, especially Christina Grimmie, who is(if you look up her vids since 15yrs old) is a musical genius-piano and composing-and a voice that is so versatile. Josh’s song actually had a huge faltering near the end that no one talks about. But he is good. This actually is by far the most interesting Voice so far. Definitely the favorite of so many people this year. Ranked #1 on NBC.

Sissaundra Lewis is a very good singer, but this isn’t the show for her.

Although Sasaundra’s departure was ridiculous, it was no surprise. I mean they got rid of Judith Hill too, remember? I think the public just figures they are so good that they have it made. And that may be true. But it just goes to show America wants “really good young singers” rather than great seasoned singers. We are, after all, mediocre as a nation when it comes to artistry….
