Monday is the final night of The Voice’s season 20 Knockout Rounds — and two of Kelly Clarkson’s youngest team members are giving it all they’ve got to make it to the live shows!
In ET’s exclusive sneak peek at the final Knockouts, Anna Grace and Gihanna Zoe face off in one of the last head-to-head showdowns of the season, putting their vastly different, but equally impressive, vocal skills on display.
First up, Anna slows down The Band Perry’s “If I Die Young” to turn it into a dreamy, ethereal ballad that earns audible reactions from Kelly, John Legend and Blake Shelton.
Then, Gihanna soars through her soulful rendition of Pink’s “Glitter in the Air,” showing off her stunning belt and even more impressive control during the song’s quieter moments.
“This is not gonna be a fun one for you, Kelly,” Blake warns, and we have to agree! Check out the full performances below:
“To take a song like this and make it your own in this way, I thought was the right move, and I thought you did a really good job with it,” Nick Jonas tells Anna, however he admits to Kelly that he would pick Gihanna to win the Knockout.
“You show up each week with kind of a different thing for all of us to hear,” he shares with the young performer, “which is really incredible, to be so good at so much.”

John praises both singers’ personality and confidence, saying he got “chills” from Anna’s “graceful” high notes and joking with Gihanna that he didn’t believe she was actually just 17 years old: “It sounded so confident and sure, I gotta check the birth certificate!”
As their coach, Kelly is diplomatic, saying the talented young performers are “very powerful in different ways.” She praises Anna’s chills-inducing “ethereal” tone and Gihanna’s “big presence, for anyone, but especially a 17-year-old.”
“Honestly, it’s just gonna come down to who, in this moment, is going to be able to navigate this competition better,” she admits. Tune in Monday to find out which singer is moving on to the live shows!
In addition to their coaches, the season 20 performers had extra input during the Knockout Rounds from this season’s Mega Mentor: Snoop Dogg! ET spoke with Snoop ahead of his epic reveal, and the legendary rapper shared how excited he was to help coach the up-and-coming singers and impart his own wisdom and experience to the hopeful stars. But, while he had his own thoughts on each of the coaches, Snoop wasn’t playing favorites!
“It’s hard to say which team that I like working with the best, because there’s so much talent inside of each team,” he marveled. “Each team has some unique singers and some unique artists that could possibly make it past the show. I know only one person’s gonna win, but it seems like there’s about six or seven record deals up in here.”
