From the moment Ruby Leigh stepped on the stage of The Voice, coaches like Niall Horan, Reba McEntire, and John Legend knew the power of her voice. With each week bringing new challenges, the singer consistently proved herself to be a top talent on the show. She eventually made it all the way to the finals with Huntley. Although Huntley ended up winning Season 24, Leigh isn’t letting the loss hold her back as she looks ahead to the future. She recently shared some of the famous musicians she met along the way.

The Two Coaches Ruby Leigh Keeps in Touch with
Discussing her time on The Voice with Lincoln News Now, Leigh explained how the competition helped her voice reach millions of people. “It’s really cool to see all the new people that I’ve been able to reach by being on the show, which is honestly my favorite thing about it,” she said. “And I have all these new fans that have never seen me before, would never get the chance to see me, that know about me now. So I think that’s one of the best parts about being on the show and all those years leading up to it. I think that’s why this is, like, my big moment.”
