    Blake Shelton on Tessane

    I think he is right on the money.

    Tessanne is my pick to win and for no other reason than I have eyes, and I can look at iTunes and see what happened yesterday.

    I think with her performance of "Bridge Over Troubled Water", something happened. Something clicked. She's been great all this time and I've been one of the first ones who has been frustrated with the fact that she's been kind of held to a reggae sound. Just because she's from Jamaica, people expected her to do a specific sound from that country.

    Tessanne should never be limited. She should never feel like she could only do one thing. She can do everything. And I think that when she did "Bridge Over Troubled Water", everybody went, "Oh my gosh! This has nothing to do with her accent or where she's from. This has to do with who else in the world can sing like this girl sings?! I'm excited about that for her.

      Having got to the finals she has already got the maximum exposure that The Voice could give her, matters little if she wins or not.

      The more important issue she will have to face is what kind of music to release next, or what demographic to target?

        No, that would only be your words.

            I don't know if the other contestants have gotten as much public and media attention as her, because frankly, I have not been interested, but at this stage, she might as well win the damn thing. I think she is THE ONE to elevate The Voice's profile.

              "It therefore is useless and pointless, unless it is for share malice and victimisation to arrest and charge a 92-year-old man for such a simple offence. There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

                others may have gotten close to her from hometown media, but she has proven herself and I hope she will benefit bigtime.

                  let us say they did, how did they hurt her?

                          all i know is that she is the finals as the #1 seed .. so if she was bad then the others were worse.

                          it personal, don't it?
