The Voice Australia Review: Fan Favorite Rachael Leahcar Makes it Through
The Voice Australia is only a couple of weeks away from the finale, and fan favorite Rachael Leahcar seems all set for the crown despite a psychic's prediction that she will not win.
Leahcar, Adelaide's star in the show, made it through by public vote. Her mentor, Delta Goodrem, chose Glenn Cunningham to stay, too. The Aussie public went for Team Seal's Karise Eden, and Seal picked Fatai Veamatahau. These four contestants will be seen next week for the pre-finale live rounds.
The Voice has said goodbye to Team Delta's Danni Da Ros and Viktoria Bolonina, and Team Seal's Chris Sebastian and Emma Louise Birdsall.
The mentors' choices drew mixed reactions from fans, who ranted and cheered on Twitter (their tweets are featured below).
Among the performances on Monday night's Live Show Final (Part 4), three performers showed they couldn't be counted out from the competition.
Sarah de Bono of Team Joel gave justice to Whitney Houston's "How Will I Know." The judges loved her. Team Keith's Diana Rouvas and Ben Hazelwood were both stunners with Bonnie Rait's "I Can't Make You Love Me" and Stevie Wonder's "I Believe (When I Fall In Love With You It Will Be Forever)," respectively. Their fate seems almost certain for next week. They are going to stay either by public vote or judge's choice based on their performances.
Team Keith's Brittany Cairns was the least impressive with her interpretation of "Straight Lines" by Silverchair. It's hard to guess why Urban would choose the kind of song for Brittany. Considering the rest of the performances, Brittany won't get to stay via public vote with that one. Even Adam Martin's rather awkward rendition of "Romeo and Juliet" by Dire Straits sounded better.
Below are tweets from the fans of The Voice Australia contestants after Monday's show.
