Clarkson's Revenge: The Ultimate Voice Win
30 Mar
Summary
- Kelly Clarkson achieved ultimate revenge by winning The Voice.
- Blake Shelton trolled Clarkson frequently during her first seasons.
- Season 29 features a 'Battle of Champions' with past winners.
Kelly Clarkson reflects on her past Voice victories, highlighting her first win with Brynn Cartelli in Season 14 as particularly satisfying due to the "ultimate revenge" it provided against Blake Shelton. Shelton, a nine-time winner over 23 seasons, was known for his competitive banter and frequently downplayed Clarkson's country music roots. This rivalry fueled Clarkson's motivation, making her eventual victories especially sweet.
Clarkson recalled similar sentiments about her Season 17 win with Jake Hoot, underscoring how overcoming Shelton's persistent trolling elevated her achievements on the show. Even six seasons after Shelton's departure, his influence is remembered, with past wins still being cherished accomplishments by coaches like Clarkson. The current "Battle of Champions" in Season 29 promises more intense competition as coaches with previous wins vie for supremacy.
The Voice airs Mondays at 9 p.m. ET on NBC, with episodes available for streaming the next day on Peacock. Season 29 features a "Battle of Champions" format.
