Morgan Wallen's journey on The Voice Morgan Wallen, now a prominent figure in country music, participated in the singing competition during its sixth season in 2014. Despite the show’s reputation for not consistently producing commercially successful artists, Wallen became an exception. His time on the show marked a pivotal moment in his career, even though he was ultimately eliminated before the Live Shows. Wallen joined The Voice as a contestant during Season 6, which aired in the spring of 2014. The coaching panel that season included Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Usher, and Shakira. Wallen’s journey began with his Blind Audition, where he performed “Collide” by Howie Day. At the time, only two spots remained, one on Team Shakira and one on Team Usher. Both coaches turned their chairs, and Wallen chose Usher as his mentor. In the Battle Rounds, Wallen was paired with Brothers Walker for a duet of “Hey Brother.” Usher selected him as the winner, advancing him to the next round. There, he competed against Stevie Jo in a duet of One Direction’s “Story of My Life.” Usher initially chose Stevie Jo, but Levine used his Steal to keep Wallen in the competition. By the Playoffs, all coaches had five singers on their teams and had to eliminate two before the Live Shows. Wallen performed “Stay” by Black Stone Cherry, and Levine chose to eliminate him. Wallen later explained that his exit was due to creative differences. He claimed the show’s producers wanted him to focus on pop music, which felt out of his comfort zone. “They wanted me to sing pop music,” he said. “I’m very fish out of water. I’ve never even been on a plane before the show.” Wallen also noted that his elimination coincided with his decision to pursue a different musical direction.#blake_shelton #the_voice #morgan_wallen #adam_levine #usher
Gwen Stefani’s Spiritual Awakening Begins with a Miracle Baby Gwen Stefani, the singer and judge of The Voice, has shared how becoming a mother at 44 sparked a profound spiritual transformation. In an interview with Hallow: Prayer & Meditation, Stefani, now 56, described the experience as a “miracle” that led to a religious awakening. She recounted feeling “desperate” at the time, as she had longed for another child but faced challenges due to her age. Stefani, a practicing Catholic, was in a relationship with an Israeli “atheist Jew” at the time, and the two engaged in deep conversations about faith. The man, who was studying the Torah, experienced a significant epiphany and began sharing his insights with Stefani. Though Stefani couldn’t conceive at the time, the discussion about his conversion to Judaism ignited her own spiritual curiosity. Her youngest son, Kingston, also played a role in the journey. When he began asking for a sibling, Stefani told him she was too old to have another child. This response prompted Kingston to pray every night, pleading with God for her to have a baby. Four weeks later, Stefani became pregnant naturally at 44, which she called “a full-on gift” and the “first miracle.” The experience deepened Stefani’s connection to Christianity, though she admitted the path has been challenging. “It’s almost scary because the more you know, the more fear you get,” she said. “You realize, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m running out of time and I need to get this together. I’ve got to be a real Christian! I’m not gonna make it.’” Stefani, who shares three sons with her former husband Gavin Rossdale—Kingston, 19; Zuma, 17; and Apollo, 12—has spoken about the complexities of balancing her career and family life.#blake_shelton #gwen_stefani #hallow_prayer_meditation #the_voice #kingston

Gwen Stefani credits a spiritual awakening for her pregnancy with her third child at 44 Gwen Stefani, the singer known for her work with No Doubt, revealed that a profound spiritual epiphany played a key role in her decision to conceive her youngest son, Apollo, at the age of 44. The artist, who is a practicing Catholic, shared her experience during an interview with Hallow: Prayer & Meditation, describing how conversations with a former “atheist Jew” who later converted to Judaism helped her navigate her journey to motherhood. Stefani explained that she had been struggling with the desire to have another child, feeling “desperate” as she approached 44. Her eldest son, Kingston, had been praying every night for her to conceive, a practice that eventually led to her pregnancy. “Four weeks later, and I was pregnant with Apollo,” she said, calling the birth a “full-on gift” and the first miracle of her life. The singer’s path to motherhood was marked by personal and spiritual challenges. She had previously divorced her ex-husband, Gavin Rossdale, in 2016, and their marriage was annulled by the Catholic Church in 2021. Stefani later married Blake Shelton in 2021, a union she described as fulfilling her wish to have a Catholic marriage recognized by the Church. Stefani’s spiritual journey also involved deep conversations with the former atheist, who had undergone a significant transformation. “He was studying the Torah, and he had this big epiphany awakening, and he started talking to me about the Torah,” she recalled. These discussions, she said, helped her reconnect with her faith and find clarity during a difficult time. The singer’s children, Kingston, Zuma, and Apollo, are the result of her relationship with Rossdale, whom she married in 2002.#gwen_stefani #no_doubt #hallow_prayer_meditation #gavin_rossdale #blake_shelton
