After stellar performances, shocking eliminations and game-changing steals, The Voice" season 9 is finally down to four contestants. Team Pharrell is out of the competition while Blake Shelton has twice as many chances of winning compared as Adam Levine and Gwen Stefani.
Team Blake has Emily Ann Roberts and Barrett Baber vying for the fifth victory for their coach (Shelton has won in four seasons) while Team Gwen has its hope on Jeffery Austin. Team Adam has Jordan Smith to win it all and many believe that he will go on to do that in the finale of the season.
Smith has the talent and the charm to dominate the stage. Last time he performed, where he was surrounded by a gospel choir as he belted out a soulful rendition of "Somebody to Love," his coach was so ecstatic and so sure that "The Voice" season 9 winner is here.
Fans also adore Smith and this is evident in how much love he got for the abovementioned showing. Smith beat out singer-songwriter Adele from the top spot of the iTunes chart after that performance. "I opened my phone and saw it and I almost was moved to tears. It was so incredible!" he said of the feat (via People).
Smith is a fan of the "Hello" hitmaker and said he is extremely honored to see his name next to artists like Adele in the music charts. As Heavy points out, Smith has been a consistent singer throughout "The Voice" season 9 so it would be a bigger surprise if he doesn't take home the award.
Meanwhile, Austin trusts her coach Stefani as much as she trusts him. "I don't think I would have gotten as far as I have without being on Gwen's team," he said. While he narrowly made it through, his rendition of "Believe" reminded viewers why he remains in the competition.
Baber, on the other hand, can win it all for Team Blake in "The Voice" season 9 simply because when he sings, he puts his heart and emotions out there, thus moving viewers. Roberts, on the other hand, is the real deal when it comes to hitting the notes, big and small.
Who will be the winner of "The Voice" season 9? Find out Dec. 14 and 15 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
