Tessanne is THE VOICE!!!! The Jamaican beauty who dominated the show from day one takes all! She's so deserving, and tonight Jamaica is celebrating with the US in victory!
One of the best things about the competition is when the contestants that have been eliminated from the competition return to perform. Each of the contestants gets to "bring back" a group of artists that have been eliminated. Jacquie called on Matthew, Caroline, Cole, and James for a rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody". Tessanne brought back James, Preston, Olivia, and Grey to join her in a performance of "Hold On". Will decided to perform "Wagon Wheel" with Cole, Jonny, Caroline, and Austin.
When Tessanne found out who she was going to be performing with, she literally broke down in tears. It just so happened that this woman was the one person she dreamed of performing with all her life. Who was this fabulous woman? None other than Celine Dion of course! Surprisingly, Tessanne didn't faint during their performance of "Love Can Move Mountains".
There were many other good performances, including One Republic, Celine Dion with Ne-Yo, Paramore with Jacquie Lee, Aloe Blacc and Will, but the one that took the cake and will go down in HISTORY was Lady Gaga and Christina performing. ON THE SAME STAGE! As everyone knows, these ladies have had an unspoken rivalry for some years now so it was awkward when reports began surfacing that Lady Gagita would perform in front of Christina on The Voice stage. Their collaboration was a complete surprise and the crowd went wild when Christina emerged from a shell on stage, little mermaid style. Aside from Tessanne being named The Voice, this was the biggest moment of the night.
Will was announced as the contestant in third place, leaving Tessanne and Jacquie wondering which one of them had won. Jacquie was a close second, but Tessanne is our Voice winner. After Danielle was too emotional last season to sing her victory song, you would think the producers would drop that part of the show, but nope! After they announced it, Carson shoved a microphone in her face and she sang with her mom and husband on stage with her.
Well folks, its all over until next season. Adam won this round, and next season Shakira and Usher come back!
