Spoiler alert! This story reveals a number of the outcomes from Workforce Snoop and Workforce Reba’s Playoff performances that aired November 25. Episodes will be streamed with a Peacock subscription when you missed it.
The Voice Season 26 continues on the 2024 TV schedule, with Snoop Dogg and Reba McEntire’s groups taking the stage for Monday evening’s Playoffs. The coaches didn’t should go it alone, bringing in advisors to assist their workforce, and Snoop made a reasonably daring transfer by bringing in not a fellow music icon however somewhat Olympic gymnast Simone Biles (a alternative that admittedly confused me). Nevertheless, what was arguably a fair bolder transfer got here when he assigned one in every of his workforce members the track “Fancy” to sing in entrance of McEntire herself, and the Queen of Nation had probably the most on-brand response to the efficiency.
Final week we noticed Gwen Stefani make the tough choice of selecting simply two of her remaining 5 artists to symbolize her within the upcoming dwell exhibits. Earlier than making his personal cuts, Snoop Dogg actually challenged his workforce members with songs by artists together with Whitney Houston, Prince and, sure, Reba McEntire. Christina Eagle was given “Fancy,” and he or she put her personal spin on the basic tune, which additionally included some sassy hip-swinging. McEntire beamed by way of the entire efficiency, giving Eagle a standing ovation earlier than raving:
Actually? Oh my gosh, that was unbelievable! I really like the way in which you modified it round. Your choreography was nice. You had been captivated with it. Fantastic, great job.
Michael Bublé then jokingly inquired if Reba McEntire additionally did “the hip factor” when she sang that track on stage, which impressed probably the most “Reba” response, as she stated:
No, no, I get a catch in my get-along if I do this. Can’t do it.
Apparently I don’t dwell within the a part of the nation the place one will get a “catch of their get-along” — or possibly that is only a Reba-ism like when she quotes Sir Combine-a-Lot by saying, “Oh my god Becky”? — however both manner, that was a brand new one for me. The opposite Voice coaches had been floored as nicely, and Reba McEntire doubled-down by saying:
I’m telling you, attractive meemaw can’t do this no extra.
Michael Bublé beforehand held my favourite moments from this season of The Voice by utilizing Titanic and different film plots to attempt to earn favor with the artists, however I’ve received to say, listening to Reba McEntire confer with herself as “attractive meemaw” is simply one thing you don’t come again from.
Ultimately, Christina Eagle’s “Fancy” efficiency rose to the highest, as she was one of many two singers Snoop Dogg selected to carry to the Dwell Semifinals. See her successful rendition of the track beneath:
Watch On
Name me loopy, however I wager Reba McEntire’s nonetheless received some hip motion left in her get-along (or one thing like that). Regardless, the laborious half is over for her and 75% of The Voice coaches, with solely Michael Bublé left to get rid of three from his workforce. Tune in to see the Prime 8 rounded out at 9 p.m. ET Tuesday, November 26, on NBC.
