Following last week’s live playoffs bloodbath on The Voice, when 12 of the final 24 singers went home, only one got the chop Tuesday. As the competition – as renowned for its bizarre format changes as its talented crop of stars – hits the stretch run, who would survive? After Monday’s always-impressive live performances, the top 12 contestants on Season 10 of The Voice faced elimination last night. For the first time in this cycle, the results Tuesday were determined solely by viewers’ votes and iTunes downloads. No mentors’ help. Coaches Christina Aguilera, Pharrell, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton could only sit, watch, encourage and hope America got it right. Tuesday also saw the return of the Insta-save, in which the bottom two artists sang live, and viewers could vote on Twitter in real time. Heading in, it appeared that Daniel, Emily and Bryan could be at risk for being relegated to the bottom three among the final dozen. Were they? Let’s break down The Voice results … The first artists voted through to the Top 11 were Team Christina’s Alisan Porter and Team Blake’s Adam Wakefield, who killed it Monday. Team Christina’s Bryan Bautista then made it through, along with Team Pharrell’s Daniel Passino, his coach’s major comeback artist. Team Blake’s Paxton Ingram got the nod, and was soon joined by Team Adam’s Shalyah Fearing, the youngest artist left in the hunt. Adam’s protege Laith Al-Saadi then made it through, as did Team Pharrell’s duo of Hannah Huston and Team Christina’s Nick Hagelin. Finally, Team Blake’s classic country artist Mary Sarah advanced, leaving Team Pharrell’s Emily Keener and Team Adam’s Owen Danoff. Those two proceeded to sing for their lives. Keener was first, singing “Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain” by Willie Nelson, accompanying herself on guitar and playing to her strengths. Danoff, also on his guitar, followed with “Lego House” by Ed Sheeran, which was also in his comfort zone, and it showed. He survived. Emily Keener has been eliminated. What did you think of The Voice results tonight? Did America get it right? Who do you think will take it all the way to the finals this year?
