Spoiler alert! This story comprises minor spoilers about Night time 1 of The Voice Season 27 Blind Auditions, which aired February 3 on the 2025 TV schedule. The episode is on the market to stream with a Peacock subscription.
A brand new season of The Voice is upon us, and no, you’re not nonetheless feeling the consequences of that final go to to Snoop Dogg’s dressing room — that actually was Adam Levine again on The Voice to kick off Season 27. In fact rather a lot has been manufactured from the OG coach returning for the primary time since Season 16, and he proved himself a worthy adversary for John Legend, king of the 4-Chair Flip. Nevertheless, the Maroon 5 frontman was not the one Voice alum to make a comeback when the Blind Auditions kicked off, and one return included a twist I wasn’t anticipating.
A No-Flip Artist From Final Season Got here Again For One other Shot
Adam Levine’s first night time again on The Voice was the scene of two different artists returning to the stage, although in several capacities. First, Iris Herrera, who did not get a chair flip in Season 26 got here again and sang a slowed-down twangy model of “You Are My Sunshine” which you could watch under:

The 19-year-old had higher luck this time round, getting Kelsea Ballerini, John Legend and Michael Bublé to hit their buttons. Iris Herrera mentioned she put lots of work into her second audition try, but in addition her singing a unique tune in entrance of a brand new panel of coaches (Bublé is the one holdover from Season 26) made an enormous distinction.
In actual fact, the pre-recorded rounds of Seasons 26 and 27 filmed back-to-back, so I’m actually curious how a lot time handed between her two makes an attempt. Both method, congrats to Iris Herrera, a brand new member of the very first Staff Kelsea.

He was accompanying Jadyn Cree, his 23-year-old daughter, for her audition. That was a twist I wasn’t anticipating! Whereas I keep in mind Olesen being the oldest contestant on his season, I might forgotten his daughter was additionally a singer.
Kelsea Ballerini and Michael Bublé heard one thing they favored in her model of Paramore’s “Nonetheless Into You”:

The Voice followers would possibly keep in mind Jadyn Cree, as she got here out and sang a duet along with her father when he auditioned a yr in the past, in the end touchdown on Staff Legend. (The daddy-daughter duo even bought to take a seat in Dan & Shay’s double chair.)
Sadly Jadyn Cree couldn’t comply with in her dad’s footsteps on John Legend’s crew since he didn’t flip his chair, however I’d be prepared to guess Legend will probably be in search of a chance to steal her from the Canadian crooner someplace down the highway.
The Voice is off to a enjoyable begin, and I can’t wait to begin seeing extra wild moments from Adam Levine now that the OG troublemaker is again. Tune into NBC at 8 p.m. ET Monday, February 10, to see what occurs subsequent.
