I ASSumed that Xtina picked Bev's song since she suggested Frenchie's song but that was me ASSuming I don't think Frenchie or the sisters were fav's but I couldn't wrap my head around the song choices each of their coaches suggested especially because they weren't fav's that's when you want that hail mary performance to try and tip the scale.

Annie, I know he did. But only one of them is still in the competition, and that's my point. He took her out to perform with him, and that large of an audience could all vote for her because of him. Bleah.

I hope Vicci wins, now that Xenia is out of the competition. I can't wait for Xenia's first album to drop. It was so odd to me that Adam had not heard Whattaya Want from Me or a song from The Script. Those songs are playing in my house all the time and I would imagine that a musician would be listening to everything out there, at least the musicians in my house do. As soon as something new comes out they have downloaded it in our house and are pulling it apart to figure it out.

No question to me that regardless of what happens, the real "winners" on this show are all of the people on Blake's team. He has been a wonderful mentor, he has promoted them, he has encouraged them and I think he is by far the most likely to continue to care about and help them on an ongoing basis after the show is over. They scored big time with Blake. Some of the song choices for the other contestants were very strange. It's almost like they wanted them to lose. They must have known they would have no chance with that song choice. So why pick those songs?

I am not understanding your point, Cost. LOL He eliminated Xenia so she could go out on tour with him, but kept Dia so she could win?

I understand Costa's point.... not only that, but, because of Blake's country background, the 'country' leaning music people might also vote that way even though she's not country just cause of Blake. He does seem like a guy you could go have a beer with and chew the fat. I thought I read somewhere that Miranda Lambert will be singing on the finale show.

Annie, he took BOTH girls out before the eliminations. Major exposure. But only ONE girl is left, and anyone who is a rabid Blake fan is likely going to vote for the one girl left. MAJOR exposure to his fans. Thanks Kooklie!

QUOTE "Yeah I agree Blake has helped his team the most and JenJackson me too!! I want to hear Xenia sing again I love love love her voice." So do I! And this show has really made me a fan of Blake, the man, not the performer. I like his voice also, but I loved, loved, loved his sense of humor. He came across as such a warm and caring man....his looks didn't hurt either. I also liked the way Adam Levine was with his group.

Interestingly for me the star I thought I'd like the most is the one I like the least and that's Christina. I don't "dislike" her but I expected her to be my fav and she isn't.

Not sure if this article about how much the coaches make was brought here or not. ‘The Voice’ Paychecks Revealed: Christina Makes A Whopping $225,000 Per Episode! Christina Aguilera makes more than double what Adam, Cee Lo and Blake are making on ‘The Voice’!

I agree with what some of you are saying about Blake giving his girls the edge. The way I look at it is, the other judges could have done the same thing. They all had the ability to give their team exposure. I'm sure CeLo has a major R&B following and his fans could be enfluenced to vote for Vicci. They all have the enfluence. It just appears that Blake is going the extra mile to help and for that I believe he is an awesome guy. He has let the girls pick their own songs and do their thing. He's not doing the show for money or his own exposure. We can't same the same for the rest. I agree who said Christina has been disappointing. She wasn't my favorite person before and she hasn't changed my mind. I don't dislike her but I don't love her either. Vicci is my favorite contestant but Blake has made me fall in love with him.
