The Voice Recap: Christina

Its Christina and Blakes turn to chop their teams in half as the knockout round comes to a close!

The latest round of The Voice comes to an end, as coaches Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton eliminate half of their team members in the second half of the knockout rounds!

Devyn DeLoera vs. Laura Vivas

Christina pairs these two because she feels they are two powerful vocalists. Devyn chooses I Have Nothing by Whitney Houston to compete because she says she has nothing without this show. Laura chooses to compete with I Need To Know by Marc Anthony to show her Latina-ness. During her performance, Devyn isnt able to reach Whitney-levels of amazing, but she sounds alright. Laura is a lot of fun with her salsa performance. Christina advances Devyn!

Adriana Louise vs. Celica Westbrook

These two are going head-to-head because Christina only wants one powerful pop singer, she says. Adriana chooses Already Gone by Kelly Clarkson so she can show emotion. Celica chooses Never Say Never by Justin Bieber so she can sing something that she feels is her own age. Im always way of girls choosing songs by vocalists who are much stronger than they are it always seems like a set-up for failure. Adriana doesnt hold a candle to Kelly, but she hits that big note towards the end quite well. Celica is cute in her performance, but I dont think its anything to write home about. Christina advances Adriana!

Alessandra Guercio vs. Dez Duron

Alessandra chooses to compete with Take A Bow by Rihanna, while Dez chooses Stuck On You by Lionel Richie. Alessandra brings a powerful quality to her performance that we hadnt really seen yet in the competition. Dezs song is pretty boring, but hes got the heartthrob working for him. Christina advances Dez!

Chevonne vs. Deborah

Chevonne chooses Dancing With Myself by Billy Idol, while Deborah opts for You Found Me by The Fray. Christina advances Deborah. Chevonne ignores her former coach Cee Lo Green as he tries to say goodbye. Sore loser!

Aquile vs. Sylvia Yacoub

Christina pairs these two up because she says they always put their heart and soul into their performances. Aquile competes with Bruno Mars Grenade, which is a good choice for his voice. Sylvia chooses to compete with her coachs song Fighter, which is a brave decision, if you ask me. Her brave choice pays off, as Christina advances Sylvia!

Gracia Harrison vs. Liz Davis

Blake pairs up his country queens for his first knockout matchup. Gracia chooses to compete with Aerosmiths I Dont Want To Miss A Thing, while Liz chooses Blakes wife Miranda Lamberts Gunpowder and Lead. Lizs song proves to be a wise choice, as Blake advances her to the live rounds!

Rudy Parris vs. Terry McDermott

Blake pairs these two up be! cause the! yre both rockers. Terry opts to compete with Paul McCartneys Maybe Im Amazed, while Rudy chooses Chris Browns Forever despite Blakes warning that the song may be too young for him. Blake advances Terry!

Collin McLoughlin vs. Michaela Paige

Collin chooses to compete with Breakeven (Falling to Pieces) by the Script, which is such a good song that he ought to rock! Michaela, meanwhile, decides to go with Pat Benatars Love Is A Battlefield, a song that is perfect for her. As he decides to advance, Blake says, Man, I love this little girl so much, I gotta go with Michaela. And so she moves forward!

Julio Cesar Castillo vs. MarissaAnn

This is quite an odd head-to-head, in my opinion. Julio chooses to compete with Justin Biebers Somebody To Love, while MarissaAnn goes with a bold choice: Lady Marmalade, a song that Christina famously covered! Both perform well, leading Blake to feel the two are dead even, but he eventually chooses Julio to advance!

Cassadee Pope vs. Suzanna Choffel

Cassadee chooses to compete with Payphone by Maroon 5, another song originally by one of our coaches, while Suzanna goes with Could You Be Loved by Bob Marley. While both do great, Blake advances Cassadee, to whom Adam says, You pick Blake Shelton and you sing my song? Youre breaking my heart!
