It is the final week of blind auditions, and the last chance for the contestants to get a place on one of the coaches' teams. Taking their positions in the infamous red chairs are coaches will.i.am, Jennifer Hudson, Sir Tom Jones and Gavin Rossdale, who will be seeking out the finest vocal talent to complete their line-ups.
Hosted by Emma Willis and Marvin Humes, the show features four musician coaches: will.i.am, Boy George, Paloma Faith and Ricky Wilson, who will coach only the most talented vocalists. The show's innovative format features three stages of competition: the first begins with the blind audition, then the competition enters into a battle phase, and finally, the live performance. The show's casting team is working with the music industry and searching the country for the best singers to bring to the blind audition process.
During the blind auditions, the decisions from the coaches are based solely on voice and not on looks. The coaches hear the contestants perform, but they don't get to see them - thanks to rotating chairs.
