Tonight was the Vegas round where more hard cuts would be made.
We got to see that super tough Voice teacher Peggi Blu is back. Uh oh!! The drama is starting and the show hasn't even begun!!
This time there would be sudden death performing as the contestants would be told right after their song if they were staying or going. Kind of... more on that later.
After the group and solo rounds, there were now 70 contestants left.
This time they were doing 60s and 50s music in groups of 2-4, divided over 2 days.
There were too many to mention but I'll mention some notables:
Going home in this round - Ashley Robles, Jessica Phillips (her extreme bitterness at her being cut was extremely disappointing as it could turn off people who might've been interested in her), Mathanee Treco and Nick Boddington (which was a surprise as we had been shown nothing but good performances by him).
We were shown that Richie Law and Jermaine Jones had chemistry issues as they tried working together but in the end they worked it out and had a great duo performance.
We got our first listen at Wendy Taylor. All I have to say is WOW!
More cuts needed to be made with Day 1 contestants because of too many Day 2 contestants getting through was rather not fair. All day 1 contestants were brought out in an effort to get down to a top 40. They wound up with 42.
Favorites cut in this second round of Day 1 contestant cuts: Gabi Carruba, Skylar Dixon, Johnny Keyser, Jairon Jackson and surprisingly Britnee Kellogg who had received a lot of hype.
Next week is the real hard part - getting the final contestants that will get on TV for votes. Lots of talent this season. Will be tough to see some of these contestants go.
