‘The Voice’ Season 23 Episode 10 features part 4 of the battle rounds

The Voice Season 23 Episode 10 continues with one last set of battles before the knockouts begin. So far, viewers have seen the four judges steal players and give away their Playoff Passes. Episode 10 will bring the remaining contestants to the stage to battle it out before the next round.

In episode 9, ALI, who’s already made history as the first deaf artist on The Voice, beat D. Smooth, though Kelly Clarkson gave D. Smooth the Playoff Pass. Also for Team Kelly, Holly Brand beat Katie Beth Forakis

For Blake Shelton’s team, Grace West beat Carlos Rising.

Niall Horan’s team saw some stiff competition. Kate Cosentino beat Tiana Goss in a particularly riveting performance of “Girls Just Want to Have Fun.” Michael B. then beat Ryley Tate Wilson, though Horan then gave his Playoff Pass to Ryley, who certainly earned it.

Finally, Chance the Rapper chose NariYella, a four-chair turn, over Chloe Abbott, a one-chair turn.

The Voice Season 23 spoilers will continue to show how far Blake Shelton’s team members make it in the competition. But Shelton himself is preparing to say goodbye to the show. As for who’s taking his place, it remains unknown.

Country superstar Reba McEntire was considered in the past, but she turned down the offer to judge on The Voice. With this in mind, it seems unlikely she’ll request to join the judges once Shelton leaves.

 “I got [a look at] the Holland version of The Voice,” McEntire shared with Entertainment Tonight. “They sent it to me and I said, ‘I can’t see me doing that.'” She then noted she doesn’t like to stay tied to one project for too long.

“To fill Blake’s chair? Wow. That’s gonna be tough,” McEntire added. “He did a great job and kudos to him.”

The Voice Season 23 airs at 8 p.m. on Mondays and Tuesdays on NBC.
