Throughout the Blind Auditions and the Battle Rounds, the contestants on The Voice had more than a few chances to win over the four coaches. But all that changed on Monday when the competition entered the new Cut Week. And the word โcutโ was an understatement, as the new phase was an absolute bloodbath, with over half the contestants going home. Forced to cut their teams from seven to three, Riley Green, Queen Latifah, Kelly Clarkson, and Adam Levine also felt the pressure. But with the cuts over, it seemed that The Voice would make a major change to its upcoming schedule.ย
For starters, there will be no new episode airing tonight. After eliminating more than a dozen contestants, the show needed a break. But donโt worry, The Voice will return for the Top 13 Live Shows on November 9. Giving fans the rest of the week to cope with the shocking eliminations, Queen Latifah still pondered her decision to push Lillie Kolich through. Already sending Mia Knight andย BigCountry to the live shows, Kolich was left competing with the remaining contestants. Thankfully, her cover of โFriday Iโm In Loveโ caught the attention of her coach.ย

Before making her final decision, Queen Latifah took a moment to praise all the contestants. โIt’s been a pleasure to watch your process. I’m really proud of everyone standing on that stage. You are unique in your own ways.” With Queen Latifah moving forward with Kolich, it was just the start as Levine, Clarkson, and Green also found themselves in similar situations.ย
