The Voice season 24 is has reached the Battle Rounds, and it’s time for the coaches to start making the tough decisions!
Reba McEntire is a first-time coach this season, stepping in for the departed Blake Shelton alongside her fellow coaches John Legend, Gwen Stefani and Niall Horan.
During the Blind Auditions, Reba had plenty of success landing singers for her team, leaning on her country roots — though Gwen occasionally played the “Blake card” to sway hopeful country singers her way. John relied on his status as the longest-tenured active coach to prove that hew was the best choice, while Niall continued to frustrate his fellow coaches by winning almost every young singer who used to be head over heels for One Direction.
The season 24 rosters feature an eclectic mix of artists, from yodeling 16-year-old Ruby Leigh, to journeyman backup singer Ms. Monet, to the uniquely talented Lennon VanderDoes. Teams include everyone from powerful soul singers to old-school country crooners. The coaches have plenty of tough decisions to make when it comes to who will stick around and compete in the Three-Way Knockouts.
When ET spoke with the coaches ahead of the season 24 premiere, Reba said that Gwen, Niall and John have welcomed her to the show “warmly, like a sister.” However, she noted that the friendly vibes go away when it’s time to get down to business.
“They’ve helped me, they’ve guided me and taught me, and then after I learned up to that point, then they say, ‘You’re on your own,'” she recalled.
“We still want to beat her,” John agreed with a laugh.
