Kelly Clarkson Defends DeAndre Nico from Adam Levine on The Voice!

[@coreywilson5167]

I respect Kelly for being humble n putting a good word for both artists, that is what adam shouldv'e did.

[@unjaded2]

kelly sang with a sore throat on the show live ! kelly sang with laryngitis on the season she won AI the song was i surrender by celine dion

[@griselgarcia2889]

unjaded2 thst is true

[@AndySaenz]

Celine Dion also performed in front of thousands of people with laryngitis when she had her U.S. tour many years ago.

[@unjaded2]

MAYBE THAT IS THE PERFECT REASON NOT TO HAVE CHILDREN ON THE SHOW . NEXT YR WILL IT BE , MY FETUS SINGS PAPA WAS A ROLLIN STONE ! HAHAHAHA . THIS SHOW NEEDS TO BE FOR GROWN FOLKS NOT> H S MUSICAL TRYOUTS

[@merricat3025]

@@unjaded2 I so agree with you. I'm sick of the kids. Yes they're talented but I think they get special consideration because of how young they are. I don't want to watch 14 year olds for the most part. If they can't hack it they don't belong there. Some countries have the voice kids. They want kids on the show so much have a different version of it.

[@jadefo2433]

Merri Cat ikr and The Voice is so huge in the US I really dont get why there is The Voice Kids.. that would be much more appropriate because of course theres gonna be favoritism. You obviously dont threat a teenager the same as a grown-up. Im from France and there is the Voice kids, there is actually the Voice kids in many countries and it works better

[@TheAliciousss]

After that backstabbing shit adam did, if i was Deandre i wud want to be eliminated.... really couldn't do anymore of Adam! Such ah shame for a coach!

[@maryannsmith4160]

My dearest Alicia,hi, I'm Grandma..I have followed every song ..every move that wonderful DeAndre has made..I'm older,so very sentimental about people I adore and love me. I wish I could have been there..to comfort DeAndre... God did not bring him this far and give him an outstanding voice and Stage presence and just wonderful everything about him.. to let him down I know positively the God that I serve has plans for good and not evil for DeAndre Nico and I pray that God blesses him abundantly I hope that Adam hangs his head in shame for what he's done I have no respect for Adam none zero I will not even watch The Voice anymore because DeAndre is gone but what Adam did to tear him down God will turn around and lift that boy up and watch his career is going to soar so the top of the mountains and I can't wait to see it happen. God bless you young lady for being in agreement with me about Deandre. Stand in prayer with me that God Comforts this young man and makes him stronger and stronger.. his talents are many he's a sweet boy on top of it....much love,Grandma Mary Ann👵😢😢💙😇👼👵🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@maryannsmith4160]

And as a mom and a grandma there's no greater hurts then when your hurt for your child so this is to deandre's parents. You have a wonderful talented child they have so much to give and so much love to give so much in his music career to go stay strong I will be praying for you..love, Grandma

Not only did Adam do a disservice to DeAndre, he also made things very bad for Reagan. Dude should have just kept his mouth shut. Reagan has disabled her instagram comments because I'm sure she was getting a lot of negative comments BECAUSE OF ADAM! NBC should find a way to do damage control. I wonder what was going through Adam's mind when he did that. That's why when Adam and Blake turn for you, always pick Blake. He always has a wonderful connection with his contestants. Adam is probably just there for the paycheck.

[@robinbutler4515]

Seun Ajayi, Nigerian you’re right! Blake is a way better coach than Adam. I hope this show lose ratings as a result of what took place. DeAndre was treated so unfairly. Adam shouldn’t be a coach anymore.

[@ispy7316]

Seun Ajayi, Nigerian especially black singers...Adam is competitive...he fight for black singers to pick him in the blind..but he always usually send them home over less better singers...l see this all the time on this show...In the end Adam doesn't think the black artis will win on this show....So he wants to be left with a white artist...because you guys never vote a black artist hardly ever to win the Voice even though they be the better singer to win....its only been two blacks to win The Voice out of all these years this show been on....this show cheats on the black artist...its you voters fault....last year that big beautiful female black singer should have won on blake team...but noooo you pick your little white girl who wasn't nowhere near as great as that black lady....l see this year after year you audience do this......Adam was wrong..but you guys made him do it...

[@seunajayinigerian1279]

@@ispy7316 I agree. Only 3 black contestants have ever won and one mixed contestant, and those 3 blacks were MALES. I'll try to do a cartwheel when a black female wins The Voice. Brynn winning last season was just because she was a young cute girl. Britton and Kyla in a fair world, would have had higher chances of winning than Brynn.

[@UncleMilo]

No... he was robbed by the voters.

[@wellness285]

Thank you Kelly! so much class! You are a professional and have ethics. Unfortunately, Adam has lost his way as a Coach. Strange proved last week that she couldn't carry high notes and big notes! Adam should have never let her sing that song. Strange was in the bottom 3. So unfair for her to sit in the audience in a BATH ROBE...and Adam throws his own team member DiAndre under the buss.

[@robinbutler4515]

Wellness 2 I agree!

[@nephelim9491]

Shes sick. She sounded great on the rehearsals... they arranged the song higher than the original, thats the problem. A risk that didnt pull through. But still, adam was wrong on his comments. At least be 50/50. And still, america voted for reagan. Blame the voters

[@seunajayinigerian1279]

@@nephelim9491 Why should the voters be blamed over Adam? Those voters might have voted for Reagan anyway without Adam's pity and tactless speech. Adam is the one to blame for clearly showing favoritism on national television and being unprofessional. Reagan being eliminated does not stop him from still being in touch with her, nor would it kill her. Many 14 year olds have been eliminated early in the past seasons and they didn't drop dead.

[@nephelim9491]

Blame both. Cuz why vote for her as well if she didnt present... clearly adams move was wrong but deandre was eliminated cuz he got less votes. Those who got angry cuz he got eliminated should have voted for him. I mean, if i was in america and if i had twitter, i would have voted for him uz deandrei deserved the spot among the three.

[@evanshiong3557]

This is just who Kelly is. She supports everyone. Always liked him. Adam wasn’t the same after Season 13 and started doing the same things that Christina was slammed for on the show.

[@emeldafernando9193]

I totally understand why Kelly did what she did after what Adam decided to promote Reagan in spite of her not able to perform being sick. She has to balance the fact that Adam made a mistake to go for Reagan while DeAndre has to sing off for a save. This is Kelly, the person you’ll really appreciate and respect. Adam has his reasons to choose who he wants to go forward, unfairly though to most people but thankfully Kelly is there to lighten up the scene and make everyone feel better, after all, they’re all family and they must protect each other’s back at times that some are maybe unaware that their decision isn’t quite right. But my hats off to Kelly. I don’t know what the other judges say but for me Kelly, you’re definitely a good person. You’ve earned my respect ❤️❤️❤️

[@nasskc896]

I know right...thats y such a superfan of hers.. Her face showed that she wasn't having it (probably was cursing in her head) but kept it classy. That's a true coach...she supports everyone

[@wendyc3777]

Adam was dead wrong the show was wrong for even keeping regan.There are good lessons in not having things go your way and Adam robbed that girl of that tonight.He also did a diservice to Deandre in such a huge way.Shameful really

[@mmsharonmm]

Kelly Clarkson, you are a class act

[@rgoaco]

Adam acted unprofessional and unfair by endorsing Reagan due to a shallow reason that his closeness to Reagan is rooted from his daughters. The show is called "The Voice" and not the "The daughters' attachments". DeAndre was a 4-chair turn and he did not deserve Adam as a coach. Adam even said during the auditions that he will take DeAndre all the way - what a lie! Adam implied that DeAndre's bottom position apparently has become a constant thing. In the first place, it was Adam who chose a Bruno Mars song for DeAndre knowing that it was a difficult song. The result - an awkward performance of DeAndre! As much as Reagan is a sweet girl but Reagan's performance was really not impressive either. It is understandable why both Reagan and DeAndre therefore, fell at the bottom three. Adam should have been neutral at the very least and let the public decide accordingly. On the other hand, Kelly showed utmost professionalism by flagging the show to praise DeAndre for his last performance. It looked like Kelly felt how it became unfair for DeAndre when Adam made a polarizing critique. I used to admire Adam for his coaching but I think he is starting to deteriorate and becoming more subjective. DeAndre should have chosen Kelly during the blind auditions instead. Kudos to Kelly! Adam should leave the show for a while and have a self-reflection before even coming back to the show!

[@michellemccool5755]

Yet just another reason to love Kelly Clarkson! And Kelly and Jennifer both know what's up...Simon didn't pet their little behinds and sit them in the audience with a bathrobe on and whine to the audience to vote for them anyway! No Kelly sang a Celine Dion song when she was horribly ill!! Oh and she NAILED it!!!!! Good on u Kelly Shame on u Adam!

I don't think Adam felt ashamed at all...the way he looked at kelly like he scared kelly's comment could saved DeAndre for next round where he didn't want him too. Kelly didn't even looked at him, she probably mad as hell at Adam that night and broken for DeAndre... kelly hates disrespectfulness. Remember kanye?

Wow no shame with adam playing favoritism, i bet after this he'll never win again. Thats a huge stain on his coaching. Who the hell wants to go with him. It's time he's gone. So now any 14 year old that gets sick on Adam's team can advance automatically no matter the talent she's up against. Adam wanted to save the little girl but sabotaged this man's career. The voice should change its name to "favoritism"

[@nasskc896]

I did want DeAndre to move on that night but after Adam completely threw him under the bus in favor of the girl in bathrobe...in that moment i prayed that Dave moved on. Bcoz DeAndre shouldn't stay on his team that would be awkward as Adam didn't want him in the 1st place while the girl in bathrobe not as good as Dave. But Dave was sidelined because of the mess...whatever, America paid him back in semi-finals. So glad adam is gone...he became bitter every season. All about him...Blake always jokes like this show all about him but we all knew he didn't mean that at all...he is funny. Kelly & Blake are the best coaches they could spot talent very well and nurture them w/out making it about them...i love their sibling rivalry. So funny
