Well, fellow Voice fans, that’s all she wrote. Season three is a wrap, Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green have said their good-byes, and one finalist was named the winner — that’s not even mentioning all the musical guests who stopped by! What a night!

The Music

Rihanna opened the show with a pre-taped performance of “Diamonds”. She looked stunning, but it’s time she choose a new single and start performing that. Agree?

Each artist was given the choice to bring back artists from the season to join them one last time. Terry McDermott chose to perform with Rudy Paris, Amanda Brown, Bryan Keith, and Michaela Paige. They joined the Scot rocker on “Rock and Roll All Night” by KISS. This was a really fun performance, and it was great to see Amanda on stage again!

Nicholas David was joined by Smokey Robinson to sing “Cruising”. This is such a strange song for two men to sing together. I thought it was a duet between a man and woman, not two men crooning to an audience of woman, but it’s undeniable how great the two sounded together. I’ve always been a fan of the song ever since Gwyneth Paltrow sang it in that movie about karaoke called Duets. Remember that movie? No one else does, either.

The Killers stopped by and I fell asleep because they haven’t been exciting since I was a senior in high school. It was probably exciting for Cassadee Pope to sing with them, but, boy, zzzzz.

Mackenzie Bourg, Dez Duron, Julio Cesar Castillo, Cody Belew, and Diego Val returned as this season’s “biggest heartbreakers” to sing “Stacy’s Mom”. I was thrilled to see Cody back on stage, but this number mostly only reminded me how boring Dez and Diego were.

Kelly Clarkson Is Radiant, Duh

Kelly Clarkson stopped by to sing “Catch My Breath” with Cassadee and Terry, look and sound luminous, and gush about her recent engagement. Does it get any better than Kelly? I think not.

Cassadee sang “It’s Time” by Imagine Dragons for her “bring back” song and brought back Melanie Martinez, Liz Davis, and De’borah. It was great to see Melanie and De’borah again, and everyone sounded great on the song, which is just one gem on Imagine Dragons’ incredible album. If you like the song, get the album. You won’t be disappointed.

Peter Frampton joined Terry on “Baby I Love Your Way,” which had to be a huge moment for the rocker.

Nicholas brought back Trevin Hunte, Dez, and Amanda for his “bring back” track — the artists he felt he connected with the most during the season. They joined him to sing “End of the Road’ by Boys II Men, which made hilarious use of Nick’s soulful speaking voice.

Cassadee got to sing with her hero, however dubious a choice that is, Avril Lavigne. The two sang “I’m With You”. While it was probably a shining moment in Cassadee’s life and career, I just can’t behind someone claiming Avril as their biggest hero. Sorry, can’t.

The final performance by the original coaches was really sweet. They sang Green Day’s “Time Of Your Life,” a song that was also played at my sixth grade graduation, in case you were wondering. It’ll be interesting to see what sort of chemistry Adam and Blake have with Usher and Shakira — I worry it won’t come close to what these four bring to the table together.

The Results

Before anyone was told they hadn’t won, Saint Cee Lo Green and Christina Milian announced that each of the finalists would be receiving a brand-new Kia car! “Holy buckets,” Nick exclaimed. I didn’t disagree.

After a long night of truly excellent music, it was time for the winner to be crowned. With just six minutes to go before the show ended, Carson Daly finally gathered the finalists to reveal the results. After some obligatory questions about how each felt in that moment and final words from the coaches, Carson first revealed the artist in third place: Nick.

With it between Terry and Cassadee, and Carson drawing out the suspense as much as possible, he finally announced that Cassadee was the winner! “I’m feeling amazing,” she said right after. As she should.

With that, another season of The Voice comes to a close, HollywoodLifers. Thanks for taking this ride with me, everyone! Were you pleased with the outcome? Should Cassadee have won? Or were you pulling for either Nick or Terry? Let me know in the comments below!

Well, fans of The Voice, we’re nearing the finish line! With the beginning of the end tonight, Cassadee Pope, Nicholas David, and Terry McDermott each took the stage three times to sing their hearts out: once with their signature song from the season, once with their coach, and once with a new song to prove just what they have to offer. By the end of the night, one thing was incredibly clear: This is the season of Cassadee Pope!

Before we can get into each artist’s performances, we’ve got to address the lovely Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting tribute that the show opened with. Coaches Christina Aguilera, Blake Shelton, Adam Levine, and Cee Lo Green were joined by this season’s finalists and hosts Carson Daly and Christina Milian for a touching performance of Leonard Cohen‘s “Hallelujah”. I cried. I’m sure you did too.

Nicholas David

For his new number, tonight, Nick performed a medley of Jerry Lee Lewis’ “Great Balls of Fire” and Jimi Hendrix’s “Fire”. The medley was a lot of fun, but I’m not sure it was the best thing to win all of America over.

For his signature song, Nick returned to earlier “Lean On Me” performance. He sounded great, sitting at the piano. Cee Lo got very wistful during his critique of the performances, talking about how Nick moves him so deeply. Hopefully, for Nick’s sake, America feels the same way.

He and Cee Lo performed “Play That Funky Music” which was a pretty funny and solid song choice. The decision to have that little-boy version of Cee Lo come out and dance was hysterical. Kid could really move it! It was a really fun performance

Cassadee Pope

For her signature song, Cassadee made the only choice possible — “Over You”. In light of Sandy Hook, this song holds so much more weight. Cassadee, of course, knocked it out of the park. It’s as if this song was written specifically for her to song, she’s that good at it.

Cassadee and Blake sang “Steve McQueen” together. Cassadee sounded a little wonky in the beginning, as if she was struggling to find the notes. It wasn’t my favorite performance of her’s tonight, so luckily it wasn’t the only one.

For her final performance, which was also the final song of the night, she sang “Cry” by Faith Hill. Her transformation into country artist has been completed! Cassadee really sang the heck out of this song. It was wise that she went heavily country tonight — she’s found the spot where she truly, truly shines. Can anyone beat her?

Terry McDermott

Terry and Blake sang “Dude Looks Like A Lady,” while joined on guitar by Adam wearing a ridiculous long wig and no shirt. Oh Adam, never change. It was quite a fun performance.

“Broken Wings” by Mister Mister was Terry’s new song and also his son’s favorite song. Terry really owned on this song. It was certainly in his wheelhouse. While Adam was right that there was a clear fumble in the beginning, he recovered wonderfully. Terry is so consistent, but I worry that he stands no chance at overcoming Cassadee.

“I Wanna Know What Love Is” was Terry’s signature performance. This was really one of his best performances of the season, so it was wonderful to see him sing it again.

Can anyone beat Cassadee, HollywoodLifers? Or does she have the season in the bag? Let me know in the comments below!
