For me Davon was the stand out of the night. Plus Blake said you'll be in the finale! Blake is usually right when he does that. I was a bit surprised he didn't pick Blake or Adam, but Jennifer was the winning coach on The Voice UK so she just may have the winner again!

'The
Voice' Recap: A Familiar Face Returns to the
Stage
Monday,
October 02, 2017
Jilliane Johnson
Contributing
Writer, BuddyTV
Night three of the Blind Auditions continues to
stir up the pot on The
Voice season 13. Blake Shelton , Adam Levine , Miley
Cyrus and new coach Jennifer Hudson are battling it out for
their teams. As we saw in the season premiere, the country
genre is prevalent with the contestants. Will Jennifer find
her stride and connect with a similar soulful background? Or
will she fall flat on American soil?


Adam Cunningham ("Midnight
Rider")
Adam,
a 38-year-old Iowa native, is a family man who is no
stranger to the music business. He's even worked in the
same recording studio as coach Blake. "I would love to
be the hero in my family," he says before stepping out
and lighting up the stage with this country rock
ballad.
Blake
is the first to turn around and take to his feet. The last
note finally tips Jennifer over the edge, and she hits her
button. "Let me teach you about soul," Jennifer
pleads, "He can't do that." Blake is not
amused. "Congratulations on winning last season in the
UK. We're in the United States now."
Result:
Team Blake
Hanna Mrozak
("Starving")
Hannah
Mrozak, an 18-year-old aesthetician from Wisconsin, was
influenced by her late brother to audition for the show. His
unfortunate suicide makes for quite the emotional backdrop
for her performance.
Three
coaches immediately turn around. Blake, Adam and Jennifer
all look very impressed, giving a standing ovation. Jennifer
makes good points, stating that it should be an issue that
Adam has no women on his team, and Blake calls her a
"back-up singer." Well, Hannah has a pop sound, so
she chooses the obvious.
Result:
Team Adam
Shilo Gold ("Stay with Me
Baby")
Shilo
Gold is a 26-year-old Bostonian who comes from a long
lineage of musically inclined family members. She states
early on that she would pick Jennifer as her coach. She has
the soul that Jennifer keeps referring to and,
unfortunately, it looks like not one chair will turn for
her.
Wait!
At the very last second, both Jennifer and Miley agree to
hit their buttons at the same time. "If we could
combine our voices together," says Miley, "then it
might be you." She has the range and the rasp. In a
huge turn of events, it may have been that very compliment
that changes Shilo's decision.
Result:
Team Miley
Samantha Rios ("Something's Got a Hold on
Me")
Samantha
Rios is a first generation American after her Latin parents
immigrated to Virginia. She's already achieved one of
the highest honors at the young age of 16, having sung for
former President Obama at the White House. She hits the
stage as a powerhouse, but the coaches are waiting for that
"it" factor. No one turns around, but the coaches
all agree that she has potential. Jennifer takes the time
during a hug to give her notes to learn from and encourages
her to come back again. "I wish I could have picked
her," says Jennifer just a little too
late. 
Result:
No one turns a chair
Noah Mac ("Way Down We
Go")
This
17-year-old has the looks of a boy band member but the
influences of soul, R&B and gospel. His family first
learned of his talents when he volunteered to sing at his
late sister's funeral after losing her fight against
brain cancer.
An
emotional story leads into quite the emotional performance
as Noah commands the stage with a voice beyond his years.
Jennifer turns first, and Blake follows. They lead the
audience in a standing ovation. "Whoa, you're
hot," says Miley. Adam quickly reminds her that
he's underage, and the conversation moves back to the
matter at hand. Jennifer needs her first artist, but Blake
is probably the better and more fitting
choice. 
Result:
Team Blake
Davon Flemming ("Me and Mrs.
Jones")
Davon,
26 years old, has been though a lot growing up in Baltimore,
but he lifts spirits as a worship leader in church. He wants
the coaches to hear his heart on stage. Adam, Miley and
Jennifer immediately hear that heart speaking to them. Blake
is the last to turn around, but he hardly skips a beat.
Jennifer's shoe has come off and flown across the floor
for these vocals. Carson Daly and Davon's mother and
friend are backstage high-fiving their shoes.
"You're
gonna be in the finale," says Blake. His statement is
bold, but Jennifer wins Davon over with a duet. She grabs a
microphone from somewhere (I know not where) and joins him
onstage for a duet of Whitney Houston's I Will Always
Love You. Adam reminds Davon that having a bond is great,
but you need someone who will take you where you need to go.
Everyone's argument is so strong. Who will welcome Davon
onto their team?
Result:
Team Jennifer

Kathrina Feigh ("Big White
Room")
All
the way from the Philippines, this 24-year-old is all about
family. Kathrina is putting a musical theatre background on
hold in order to audition for this once-in-a-lifetime
opportunity. Her voice is beautiful, but the performance is
a bit lackluster until it slowly starts to pick up. Possibly
a bad song choice, though.
Jennifer
and Blake decide to go for it and turn around at the last
minute. "It moved me," Jennifer compliments the
performance. Kathrina chimes in that she's seen Jennifer
in The
Color Purple on Broadway. "I played on
Broadway," adds Blake, "in Nashville." Not
quite where this artist is looking to go, Blake.
Result:
Team Jennifer
Jennifer
and Blake continue to add to their teams as the night goes
on. Alexandra
Joyce and Eric
Lyn join Team Jennifer and Team Blake welcomes Anna
Catharine DeHart.
Addison Agen
("Jolene")
Sixteen-year-old
Addison has music in her veins. Her father owns a record
store and her mother is a music therapist. She believes all
the coaches would be great for her and her American folk
genre.
Adam
and Miley turn their chairs after just a few moments of this
soulful and passionate performance. Jennifer is hesitant but
never hits her button. Blake admits that he stepped back in
order for Addison to join Miley's team. This won't
stop Adam from fighting, though. "You were so just full
of life and emotion," he says. "I feel like I can
relate to you in a way that Adam can't," Miley
states. It's a tennis match! Who wins?
Result:
Team Miley
Adam Pearce ("Hot
Blooded")
You
might recognize this face from last season. Disappointed
after no one turned their chairs for him, he's back for
a second chance. "Still on the grind," as he calls
it, Adam has consulted with two vocal coaches and fronted
his band regularly since we last saw him. Adam and Miley
turn around at the same exact time. "His voice is
dope!" yells Miley. "So I've been coaching you
since last season," Adam jokes, since he is the one who
encouraged Adam to work hard and come back. Blake fights for
Miley and makes quite the argument, but in the end the Adams
stick together.
Result:
Team Adam
Myles Frost ("My Cherie
Amour")
Myles
Frost, a teenager from Washington, DC, always had music to
fall back on through tough times growing up. His vocal
performance is strong, but his stage presence is a tad
boring. He dances more in the package than for the coaches.
Even though they can't see him, they must know somehow
because no one turns around. "Go work on your craft and
come back," says Adam. Jennifer points out that Stevie
Wonder is hard to take on. Perhaps, it was the song choice
that did him in. Hopefully, we haven't seen the last of
Myles.
Result:
No one turns a chair
Moriah Formica ("Crazy on
You")
Moriah
is 16 years old but, thanks to her father, a lover of
classic rock. She's even opened for the lead singer of
Stryper, Michael Sweet. She takes to the stage, guitar in
hand, and lights up the room with a fantastic
performance.
Miley
turns around first.  Blake, Adam and Jennifer all hit
their buttons after one incredible note. Everyone is on
their feet. "Like a pint-sized powerhouse," says
Adam. He's right. No one expected these vocals to come
from such a small girl. Each coach states their case. Blake
mentions her talent, Miley relates to her age, Adam loves
that she has an old soul and Jennifer seemed to just enjoy
the performance, period. In the end, I think the "big
sister" advice makes more of an impression.
Result:
Team Miley
It's
been a very well-rounded episode. The artists made their way
out of country, through some soul and finally ended up in
the rock and roll genre. It's expected to find new
talent in the artists that grace the stage each week, yet
the new lineup of coaches brings a
different dynamic to the show with changes made each season.
Jennifer Hudson looks to be slightly distracted by her own
celebrity, but hopefully this will fade as the season
continues.

you have paired them with? Let us know your thoughts in the

off her week-long stint at The
Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Miley Cyrus lent
her big talents to a worthy cause, honoring the victims of
Sunday's tragic Las Vegas shooting with an
emotional tribute of Dido's

addition to opening the show (backed by Adam
Sandler
on guitar), Cyrus closed the show by performing "The
Climb."The
singer will be performing on NBC's late-night show every
night from Oct. 2-6, which has been dubbed "Miley

morning, we woke up to the news of another senseless
shooting. This time in Las Vegas. In the face of tragedies
and acts of terror, we need to remember that good still
exists in this world," host Jimmy Fallon shared
when the show began. "We're here to entertain you
tonight, and that's what we're going to

shooting in Vegas, @fallontonight & I dedicated this
show to not only mourning this horrific event but using this
platform to encourage unity, peace & hopefulness!"
she wrote. The
24-year-old continued, "So we started this week off
with a song I haven't performed in years...#TheClimb.
These words mean more now to me than ever ... "Keep The
Faith" ..... Sending love to ALL! Enjoy the show
tonight & #MileyWeek .... hope we can make you smile
even thru so much pain."The
soulful soul, whose latest album, Younger
Now, was released on Sept. 29, wrote,
"No Love without Freedom ... No Freedom without LOVE
Thank you so much to Adam Sandler for joining me tonight in
remembering all those lost, and singing lyrics that I
believe are so important at this time....#LandOfTheFree
#StopTheViolence #GivePeaceAChance
@fallontonight." "The Climb," written for Hannah
Montana: The Movie, inspiring lyrics encouraging
one to keep going despite trying times: "But I gotta keep trying / Gotta keep my head
held high / There's always gonna be another mountain /
I'm always gonna wanna make it move / Always gonna be a
uphill battle / Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose/
Ain't about how fast I get there / Ain't about
what's waiting on the other side / It's the
climb." Words
most everyone could use right now...Check
out the rest of "Miley Week" this week at 11:30
p.m. ET/PT on NBC.(E! and NBC are both part

I don't know. In your opinion when they reported he had died? Maybe they should have just let it stay since they knew he would soon?  Or does that sound cruel.?

He was brain dead to start with after he was found,  so he was not really alive . He was breathing but he was not going to last more than hours.

  Ok its now official. Apparently he went into cardiac arrest and was put on life support . I guess word trickled out he had died.  Anyway then he was taken OFF life support and word was he was not dead. I think when they took him off life support it was just the beginning of the end as he had a DNR so it was said somewhere. . My fact check said he had died then it said he hadn't now it says he did. I checked other outlets and yes he has.

Thing is you outlaw guns and they will then black market them. Guns are like illegal drugs. You can find them on almost any street corner for a price.  BUT something needs done . What or How >?  I have NO CLUE.

EXACTLY!!  People say it won't help but statistically it shows the opposite, it really does help.  We're the only country really where we have not just mass shootings, but hundreds of people dying from guns every day.  And we are about the only country who allows mentally ill people (which was just approved a few months ago) and anyone practically, even those who are on the no fly list to get a gun into their hands.  Plus, not to mention the gun shows where there are no background checks whatsoever...just show up and buy a gun.  I'm sorry but something has to be done, when we see the proof of gun control in other countries, the argument that it doesn't work becomes invalid.

We do know that those countries have gun control.  I guess, to some, that's a horrible thing.  You should

be able to grab a gun and shoot any time the spirit moves you.  I will never understand why protecting ourselves

against that kind of evil is wrong.  Back in the pioneer days, people had guns because there was no law, and people

needed to be armed against harm that might come to their families.  That's not the way it is today.  Get the guns out

of the hands of these crazy people before we have many repeats of the terrible Las Vegas tragegy!

I know many won't agree with me, but just for fun...how come in countries like Canada, England, France, Germany etc they don't have deaths by guns every day?  Or Mass shootings anywhere like they have here.  They have an incident here and there, but nothing even close to here.  I just wonder (sarcastically) why it happens so much more often here than those other countries (and statistically this is true).  I wonder what the difference is in those countries vs ours.  Just a thought.

  I don't like guns I wont have one. Yes I know guns don't kill ,its the person that pulls the trigger that kills. But for gun control?  People are going to find guns on almost any street corner.  I suppose we will now hear about getting guns off the streets.  Yadda. 

This was a gun. Could have been a bomb, or a car driving thru the crowd.

 I just don't see how we can stop this from happening . I guess we can be thankful he didn't kill and injure more.  22,000 and almost 600 injured or killed. Sad day for America

Incensed Sean Hannity Says Talking Gun Control After Las Vegas Is 'Shameful'

Rebecca Shapiro,HuffPost  8 hours ago

•                  

Sean Hannity responded to the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history by lambasting Democrats and members of the media who are calling for tougher gun control laws. 

The Fox News host accused gun control advocates of "politicizing the tragedy in an absolutely despicable display." He said such discussions in the wake of the mass shooting, which left nearly 60 people dead and 500 injured at a country music festival in Las Vegas, were "so shameful," "exploitative" and "pathetic." 

"Bodies weren't even in the morgue yet," Hannity said. "Parents were in hospitals with their kids who are hanging on to life. None of this mattered to the left in this country."

The shooter, identified by police as 64-year-old Stephen Paddock of Mesquite, Nevada, opened fire on 22,000 festival attendees from a 32nd-floor hotel room around 10 p.m. on Sunday night. The attack occurred during the final set of the three-day country music Route 91 Harvest Festival.

Initial reports indicate Paddock had more than 20 guns in his room at the Mandalay Bay Hotel, including AR-15-style and AK-47-style rifles. A law enforcement official quoted by the New York Times said two rifles with scopes on tripods were found positioned in front of the broken windows in Paddock's room.

Like in many states in the U.S., Nevada's lax gun laws allow residents to openly carry long guns, and no permit is required for such a display. It's also legal to own a fully automatic firearm in the state.

OK...but last time you told me don't worry about changing it, so that's why I haven't, but it's fine with me that you change it when you read it/reply back.
