What's the CATCH behind THE VOICE?

After a night of powerful performances comes the results show. Who stays and who's going home? Well from Team Christina there was no surprise that Beverly and Frenchie are powerhouses, each of different genres. From Team Blake we assumed Xenia was the weakest of his contestants and Jared Blake one of the strongest. Let's see what happened. You will be surprised!

From Team Christina Raquel Castro and Lily Elise although strong vocally, they are also the youngest of her group and therefore weren't voted through. America voted to keep Beverly, which left Christina Aguilera with the toughest decision, getting rid of 2 of her girls and allowing 1 to move forward. But who would it be? Frenchie Davis. Why? Well seeing as Lily and Raquel are the youngest they still have opportunities to make it in the industry, and now with their connections to Christina Aguilera, they could most definitely have a shot at stardom. Beverly and Frenchie are older and have tried through other singing competitions to make it big, with no success. This is their time to shine.

Now comes Team Blake. Results. America voted Dia Frampton through which left Blake Shelton to decide who else would stay in the competition. He chose......Xenia, meaning that power rocker, Jared Blake, and country crooner, Patrick Thomas are sent packing! Is there a catch here? Why would he choose Xenia over the other 2? Maybe because he saw that if he had voted one of the guys through, with the powerful voices they have, they may take business away from him once they became stars? Hmm...

Let's take a look at reasons why Christina Aguilera made the choice she made in voting Frenchie through to join Beverly. Could it be that she felt Raquel and Lily were too pretty and uber talented, so she felt that as they get older they'd take the beauty image away from her if they became stars? And because Frenchie and Beverly were the least attractive from the group, could it be that Christina felt that she'd be safe if they went through because they don't have the look the industry looks for?

I couldn't help but notice the pattern between Blake and Christina's choices in which of their contestants they chose to vote through. Seems to me like there's more of a beauty contest going on than a talent competition.  Sadly there's not much to report on Team Cee Lo and Adam. I guess we'll just have to tune in next week.
