“The Filipino phenom has done it!” That is how Carson Daly closed out the 26th edition of “The Voice” on Tuesday, Dec. 10 after Sofronio Vasquez from Team Michael Bublé won the championship. This marks the first victory for the first-time coach on NBC‘s long-running reality TV show — see the updated list of “The Voice” wins.
Earlier in the evening, Shye of Team Bublé finished as the runner-up, with Sydney Sterlace of Team Gwen Stefani coming in third place, Danny Joseph of Team Reba McEntire placing fourth, and Jeremy Beloate of Team Snoop Dogg rounding out the top five. Read our minute-by-minute live blog to see how it all went down.
Gold Derby asked viewers like you to name who really deserved to win “The Voice” Season 26, and we can now reveal the complete poll results: Sofronio received a vast majority of the votes at 56%, compared to Shye at 19%, Sydney at 9%, Jeremy at 9%, and Danny at 7%. Did America get it right? Be sure to sound off down in the comments section.
At the end of the finale, Michael Bublé called Sofronio Vasquez his “Filipino brother” and told him, “You are the hope of so many people — not just in the Philippines, but Asians everywhere, truly. They are looking at you tonight and are so proud, and you represent them so well. It has been such an unbelievable journey to be here with you, so thank you.”
Sofronio (age 32 from Mindanao, Philippines) was a four-chair turn in the blind auditions with the song “I’m Goin’ Down,” joining Team Bublé. He then won his battle of “The Power of Love” against Aliyah Khaylyn. In the knockouts, he sang “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me” and beat out Kiara Vega and Jeremy Beloate. Sofronio performed “Crying” in the playoffs, “If I Can Dream” and “Every Breath You Take” in the top eight, “Unstoppable” and “A Million Dreams” in the top five, and “Who’s Lovin’ You” in the finale as his coach duet.
