SPOILER ALERT: This post contains spoilers for “The Voice” season 22 episode, “The Knockouts Part 2” (November 1, 2022). Do not read ahead if you do not want this episode spoiled.
Read on to see what decisions were made by coaches Blake Shelton, Camila Cabello, Gwen Stefani and John Legend during the second episode of the Knockout Rounds.
What Happened on ‘The Voice’ Tonight? Who Made It Through & Who Went Home?
The first Knockout group of the night was Team Legend’s Ian Harrison, Morgan Taylor, and Omar Jose Cardona.
Ian chose to sing “Cough Syrup” by Young the Giant, and Legend’s advice was to “lean into being a rock star.” Morgan’s song choice was “I Got You (I Feel Good)” by James Brown but with a bit of a twist in the beginning of the song. Legend told her to make sure to be herself while performing. Omar chose to sing “Radioactive” by Imagine Dragons, and his performance was particularly electric.
Afterward, Blake shared that he felt like he “just discovered” Morgan, but he also complimented both of the other contestants. John ultimately chose Omar as the winner of the Knockout round, calling him one of the “best singers” he’s seen on the show and complimenting his “stunning” voice.
Next up was Team Camila’s Eric Who winning his battle against Jaeden Luke and Reina Ley.
Next up, Team Blake’s Kate Kalvach, Jay Allen, and Bryce Leatherwood went up against one another. Allen chose to sing “Pray For You” by Matt Stell, and he dedicated it to his fiance, Kylie. Leatherwood chose “Colder Weather” by the Zac Brown Band, and Kate chose “Anyone” by Justin Bieber.
Jay seemed to have some difficulties during his performance, and Camila leaned to Blake to verify after, saying “I feel like something was going on with that,” but Blake also didn’t know what was happening. Camila told Kate that she was “one of my favorite vocalists” of the season, and Jay clarified that he was overwhelmed because his fiance was in the audience.
Blake chose Bryce as the winner of the Knockout Round.
Both John and Camila pressed their buttons to steal Kate, meaning she wouldn’t be leaving the show anytime soon. Kate chose to go with Team Camila.
