"You are just incredible," he added. "Just so powerful. So moving. You’ve talked about your insecurities, but I just see you powering through them with courage."
Not all the blame falls on Josh McDaniels in Las Vegas
Condemning McDaniels is a daily occurrence in Las Vegas, but is the beleaguered coach deserving of the bulk of the blame?"I'll defend the Raiders again... I don't think it's a bad team," said brash Fox Sports host Colin Cowherd. "Look at all the chaos McDaniels had to overcome.
Next up, sole Team Stefani contender Justin Aaron sang Travis Greene's "Made a Way." "I could see that you were really deeply in that song," Stefani said. "You are the kindest person on this show this season. Everybody feels it."
'The Voice': Team Legend singer nabs final spot in semifinals with passionate performance

Henry Cavill's Superman Return Already In Trouble?
The world was ecstatic when it had been announced that Henry Cavill would be returning as Superman for DC, but now there is some not-so-great news that could throw a wrench in his long-awaited comeback. Industry insiders close to the situation have reported that Cavill’s overall deal to return for the many Superman projects is currently not in place at all, and no writer or director is attached for this new story, which refutes previous reports that the DC Films division was beginning to hear pitches about a potential new movie.
The singer let out a big sigh of relief. Last night he wowed the judges with his rendition of Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On." Cardona's singing was so good, he drew playful speculation from Stefani he was lip syncing.
And with her last singer, Aaron, cut from the competition, Stefani's time as a coach this season has officially come to a close.
'The Voice': Camila Cabello steals Team Blake singer – with a marriage proposal?!
Televised talent competitions like "American Idol,""The Voice" and "Britain's Got Talent" have launched a bevy of music stars over the years. But what about the singers they passed over? Turns out, some of them have had even more successful careers than these shows' winners.
Take Maren Morris, for example. The Grammy-winning country artist revealed on Instagram that she auditioned for "American Idol" back in 2007 but "didn't make it past the first round cattle call."
She shared the story along with a picture of her audition ticket, which her mom saved through the years. "I wasn’t really into sports growing up but this feels like the equivalent of your mom saving your 10th place trophy," Morris wrote. The singer added in her Instagram Stories that the "Idol" decision-makers "passed on me in 5 seconds."
Alabama football vs. Auburn: Our score prediction, scouting report for Iron Bowl
Alabama football will face Auburn on Saturday in the Iron Bowl.Williams, who has been in the role the past three games after serving as Auburn's running backs coach, has given energy to a program that was otherwise somewhat lifeless as Bryan Harsin's tenure came to an end.
Here are other music stars who were rejected from singing competition shows but went on to make it big.
Bebe Rexha once waited 12 hours in line with her mom to take a shot at auditioning for "American Idol." She was turned down before she could sing for the judges.
"It was always my dream to be on 'American Idol,' " Rexha said on "Live with Kelly and Ryan," recalling the story to "Idol" host Ryan Seacrest and judge Randy Jackson. Rexha's dream still came true. In an ironic twist of fate, she served as a guest mentor to the top 24 contestants in 2022.
Some future stars did make it onto "American Idol," but didn't last long on the show.
Mickey Guyton reportedly auditioned for Season 8 but was cut right before the live shows. Guyton has since earned four Grammy nominations and was invited to perform the national anthem at Super Bowl 56.
Tori Kelly also made it onto the show but earned harsh feedback.
When she was 16, she auditioned for the judges, earning a "yes" from all except Simon Cowell, who called her voice "annoying." She was eliminated before the top 24. Kelly went on to win two Grammys — not bad for a singer with an "annoying" voice.

Amber Riley auditioned for "American Idol" at age 17 but didn't make it past producers — and that's OK, she said. "I feel that it was completely necessary," she told Distractify in 2021. "There's a moment in your life that comes where you're going to have to figure out if this is what you really want to do. I always say that it was the 'no' I needed to know that this is what I'm going to go after for the rest of my life."
Plus, Riley, who went on to star on the hit Fox show "Glee," believes she ultimately had the last laugh. "You know what? I still work on Fox, and I get paid," Riley quipped on "The Wendy Williams Show."
Riley wasn't the only "Glee" star "Idol" rejected.
Naya Rivera also tried out for the show, but was cut in the first round, not even making it to the on camera auditions, she revealed on "The Talk." Rivera went on to sing the same song she used to try out for "Idol" — "Emotions" by the Bee Gees — in her "Glee" audition. And the rest is history.
Colbie Caillat was rejected not once, but twice by "American Idol."
"I wasn't ready for it at all," Caillat told USA TODAY in 2010 of the rejections. "I was shy. I was nervous. I didn't look the greatest. I wasn't ready for it yet. I was glad, when I auditioned, that they said no."
Caillat then rose to fame through the social networking website Myspace, becoming the number one unsigned artist of her genre. In 2007 after signing with Universal Republic Records, she released her debut album "Coco." In 2009, she released her second album "Breakthrough," which got her a Grammy nomination for best pop vocal album. No longer shy of the spotlight, Caillat was also named Billboard magazine's 94th-best-selling music artist of the 2000s.

Lewis Capaldi was told by "Britain's Got Talent" producers he aced his audition when he tried out for the show. But he said they ended up ghosting him before he could be brought on to sing for the judges.
"They said to me 'Oh, Lewis, that was so great. We loved that,' " Capaldi told Heart Breakfast in 2019. "I said, 'Thank you so much for saying that.' And then I got a phone call saying 'Lewis, that was great we're gonna put it through. We're gonna try and hurry it through.' And then I never received another phone call again."
Kane Brown tried to make it onto a couple of singing shows as he was coming up in his career.
He told Billboard in 2016 that "Idol" turned him down saying "they didn’t need another (Season 10 winner) Scotty McCreery." He added that he did make it onto "The X Factor" but the show "tried to put me in a boy band, so I quit. I went home and did my own 'American Idol' with covers online."
He released his first EP, titled "Closer," in 2015. Three years later, Brown released his second album "Experiment," which became his first number one album on the Billboard 200.
Believe it or not, country crooner Chris Lane auditioned for "American Idol" as a rap artist alongside his twin brother Corey. Judges Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell all turned them down.
While the rap genre didn't work out, Lane has had much success in country music, charting seven singles on Hot Country Songs and Country Airplay. In 2017, he was nominated for new male vocalist of the year at the Academy of Country Music Awards.
