Heres what the artists had to say during their recent interview. On singing with Christina Aguilera Sera Hill: It was unbelievable. Shes my idol, shes an icon, and I wasnt expecting it, but I was just trying not to trip and fall, trying to sing the notes right, and Christina [Aguilera] singing with me was just an added bonus and it wa! s just s o surreal. Very, very surreal. My dreams came true. It was a dream come true; absolutely. On having a fanbase Rory (The Shields Brothers): Its incredible. Weve never had such an impact on

"The Voice" wrapped up its blind auditions Monday night, with the four coaches -- Adam Levine, Cee Lo Green, Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton -- choosing from highly worthy final candidates to round out their teams of 12 apiece. From here, host Carson Daly explained at the show's end, the teams will proceed to the "battle rounds," in which two contestants from the same team will face off in one-on-one competitions to leave each coach with six artists by the time the live shows roll around. As a "Voice" rookie this season, I need to ask, is there still button pushing and chair spinning once we move on from the blind auditions? Or will the fancy red thrones be static from here on out? Please fill me in on what lies ahead, "Voice" returnees. So at the beginning of Monday's fifth and final set of blind auditions, each of the judges had two slots to fill, except Green, who had three. With whom did they fill them? Whitney Myer, a 25-year-

The Voice contestant Adley Stump has said that choosing between Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton was the hardest decision she'll have to make in her life. The singer had to pick which coach she wanted on Monday night (February 27) after impressing both with her blind audition performance of 'Last Night' by Carrie Underwood . She opted to go with her heart and join Team Blake. Speaking to social media correspondent Christina Milian backstage, she said: "I wanted both of them. Those are my two favourite vocal idols. That's probably the hardest decision I'll have to make in my life - not who to marry, where to move or what job to get! "I had to go with my heart in the end." Stump added that she only discovered she could sing "a little while ago" and suggested that her background as a cheerleader had helped. "I think it taught me how to yell," she said. "Hopefully I can channel that into good singing!" Watch Adley St

NBC If you thought NBC's The Voice coaches were extremely picky last week, they were downright stingy with the button pushes on Mondays episode. It was the final round of the blind auditions and each coach had only two or three more spots before reaching their team dozen. PHOTOS: 'The Voice' Season 2 First Look -- Notable Quotables From the Show's Coaches Once the teams were complete, the coaches split the surprises down the middle. Adam Levine declared his team the strongest of the four. He may be right as his performers seemed to fit his M.O. from last season: Voices that fill a specific niche regardless of musical genre. In this final round, Adam picked up soul and blues singer Whitney Myer and beat-boxing soul singer Orlando Napier. Cee Lo Green , too, seemed to stay in his comfort zone. I know its strange to use his name and comfort zone in the same sentence. He populated his team with unique artists like him who have some quirks. He chose garage rockers, The Sh

The Voice judges Christina Aguilera and Adam Levine are rumoured to be at war, and it could have got much worse as the Maroon 5 singer was asked about Aguilera's weight by Howard Stern. Christina's weight has been criticised around the world in recent years, and Kelly Osbourne has been very vocal about it - and now Howard Stern wants a word.

Read the highlights of the contestants most recent interview after the jump. Question: How did you choose the song you performed during the Blind Auditions? Anthony Evans: There are a lot of things that go into the song choice on a show this large, especially with that many people, so The Voice is interested in who we are as artists, so they asked us. Usually theres a lot of stuff

Young Alameda singer Monique Benabou has a fan in Christina Aguilera. Benabou, 23, sang a cover of Kelly Clarkson's "Mr. Know It All" on Monday night's episode of "The Voice" that had Aguilera raving. "You started out really strong. Nice tone. Sounds powerful. You were genuinely consistent and you delivered," Aguilera said after the East Bay performer rocked NBC's popular singing contest. Benabou now advances to the next round of the competition as a member of Aguilera's team. Aguilera was the only judge to turn her chair around during Benabou's performance. On "The Voice," Aguilera competes with fellow coaches Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Adam Levine to build the best 12-person team of singers. During Monday's bio segment on Benabou, we learned that she was only 12 when her mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She spent a lot of time at home, caring for her mom. "You grow up faster," she said, reflecting

"The Voice" judges Christina Aguilera , Blake Shelton, Adam Levine and Cee Lo Green proved as picky and discerning as ever on Monday night's fourth round of blind auditions. Several strong performers were turned away as the judges continued to carefully select the contestants they hope will go all the way to the finals and in turn, win bragging rights for the last judge standing. And Cee Lo continued to inexplicably stroke a white cat during his to-the-camera interviews. "The Voice" is so weird and wonderful ... now, on to the show. Team Christina Aguilera got off to a strong start, scoring the night's first two contestants (well, the first two who got picked at all, that is). First up was Jonathas, a 23-year-old father of two who moved to the U.S. from Brazil at age 5 to escape poverty and violence. Sounding so much like Usher with his rendition of "You Got It Bad," Jonathas fooled the judges at first. "I thought that was a prank," Ce

Christina Aguilera may be a hit on The Voice , but behind-the-scenes it's a different matter, according to a new report. The 'Genie In A Bottle' singer has been accused of rocking up so hungover on set of the hit show, that the producers have to prompt her with lines. In Touch reports that an insider claimed Aguilera's lifestyle is to blame, and that she "hasn't eased up on the partying one iota" since she was publicly arrested for being a drunk. The source also said: Shes even shown up on set looking bloated and hungover. They even added: Its gotten so bad that frustrated producers are considering giving Christina a curfew on the nights before tapings. Christina, who sang at Etta James's funeral earlier this month with an unfortunate fake-tan mishap, "seems distracted while filming, to the point where producers have to feed her lines." According to the mag, they also added: Shes a disaster. They have to work hard to keep her on track.&quo

We already knew Christina Aguilera won $10 million to return to The Voice for a third season, but now the other three coaches are coming back, as well. For substantially less than the queen diva, natch, but they'll still be there -- and we won't have to wait until after theSuper Bowl next time, either. TheWrap.com says Cee-Lo Green , Adam Levine and Blake Shelton all have signed for about $6 million apiece, and the show will be back in the fall, a first for the American Idol competitor. NBCdenied it to the site, saying "no final decisions have been made," but we know how networks like to hold onto their news. The biggest holdout was Levine, who apparently was worrid about scheduling conflicts with Maroon 5's next album and tour, but that's nothing $6 million can't take care of. Plus: The ratings are huge, and they'll be competing head-to-head with Fox's disappointing The X Factor . We'll all be tuning in to see if there's sniping over t

Christina Aguilera CHRISTINA Aguilera thinks it is "time" to meet with her estranged father. The 'Beautiful' hitmaker has been opened about her strained relationship with her parent Fausto - who she has previously said was physically and emotionally abusive - but thinks she is now ready to face the past. >> More entertainment news Christina - who last saw her father in 1999 - said: "I've talked about how rough things were for me and I'm sure he's heard it. He can't be thrilled about it. So maybe one day we can do lunch ... I'm 31 years old now. Maybe it's time." Christina married Jordan Bratman - with who she has four-year-old son Max - in November 2005 but they split just under five years later, though the singer insists she wasn't too young to settle down when she did. She told the new issue of Latina magazine: "Was I too young? Not at all. I did the exact right thing at the time. .I definitely wasn't too young. I

Call it the J.Lo effect. When American Idol producers agreed in 2010 to pay pop music superstar Jennifer Lopez about $12million to replace Simon Cowell on the Fox competition's 10th season, little did they know they were setting off a gold rush. More than a year later, the C-listers that once populated the judges panels on reality shows have given way to a new crop of increasingly bold-face names demanding big-time paydays. And networks, desperate to stand out in a crowded reality landscape, are happily ponying up. In early February, NBC re-signed The Voice judge Christina Aguilera to a new deal that will pay her roughly $10 million for the show's upcoming third season. Howard Stern will make about $15million when he joins the judges panel on NBC's America's Got Talent this summer. Lopez is believed to be garnering in the $20 million range for her second season with Idol, according to knowledgeable sources. (Fox and NBC would not comment on the financial terms of
