The Voice 21 Live Playoffs, which aired earlier this week (Nov 8 & 9) revealed the Top 13 artists, after 20 performances and a wildcard round.
Now that the Top 13 is in place, it’s time to begin the finals. And good news. There are five more weeks of The Voice season 21 to go! In the past few cycles, Live Shows have only lasted three weeks–a playoff, semifinal and final round. But with COVID protocols firmly in place, The Voice producers are going old school with an expanded final round. Also, that NBC cut back The Voice to one cycle in the fall per year, likely influenced a return to supersized seasons.
The Voice eliminations won’t be dictated by teams
Two singers will be voted off next week (Nov. 15 & 16), According to the results show press release:
The Top 10 highest artists are revealed as safe by America’s votes while the bottom three compete in the Instant Save. For the first time, Kelly Clarkson and John Legend perform with their individual teams.The Top 10 highest artists are revealed as safe by America’s votes while the bottom three compete in the Instant Save.
