Michael Buble isn’t a stranger to “The Voice.” The pop singer served as an adviser for Blake Shelton’s team back on Season 3. But now, more than a decade later, he is a coach for the first time on the show. And it’s a role he doesn’t take lightly.
“I know that this is a TV show, and I know that there’s a game involved and that each of us are playing a part, but I can tell you this, it’s not a game for any of us,” Buble recently told Entertainment Weekly. “We talk about it off camera. We know that each of these people, this is their life, their destiny, their dream. And we know that we’re a big part of this journey. And while it isn’t the beginning or end of their journey, we know that we’re a part of it and we take that responsibility really seriously.”
Now, Buble is looking to be the winning coach for Season 26 — and he has a fairly good shot. Of all the coaches, he is the only one who still has two singers in the competition (Team Reba, Team Snoop and Team Gwen each have one singer remaining).
Here’s a look at the two singers who could help Buble secure his first win on “The Voice.”
Sofronio Vasquez
Sofronio Vasquez had an instant chair turn from all four coaches with his rendition of Mary J. Blige’s “I’m Goin’ Down.” Stefani called it a “Grammy performance” while McEntire said the singer from the Philippines had “the whole package.”
“I could not hit my button fast enough,” Reba McEntire said, noting that she believed Vasquez could help her get back-to-back wins as a “Voice” coach. “Your soulfulness touched my heart.”
