Reba McEntire Gets Emotional On 'The Voice' During A Heartfelt Performance

Reba McEntire couldn’t help but get emotional during an incredibly touching moment on 'The Voice' with two incredibly talented contestants. It was one of those moments that really tugs at the heartstrings, and it reminded us all why Reba is such a beloved figure in the music world.

A Moving Performance That Left Reba Speechless

During the battle rounds on Monday, March 25, Reba McEntire found herself deeply moved after watching a powerful performance by Josh Sanders and Donny Van Slee. Together, they sang Luke Combs’s hit, “When It Rains, It Pours,” and their rendition was nothing short of breathtaking. But what really struck a chord with Reba was the deeply personal connection that Josh had with the song.

Josh Sanders Opens Up About the Song’s Meaning

“‘When it rains, it pours,’ that lyric hits me kinda heavy,” Josh shared during rehearsals. He went on to explain, “I’m a dad of four girls. We had a son. He was born and passed away on my birthday. It’s such a fun song, and I don’t wanna take it there.” The vulnerability in his voice was palpable, and it set the stage for a performance that would leave everyone in awe.

The emotion in the room was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Josh wasn’t just singing the lyrics; he was living them. And that’s what made the performance so special. It wasn’t just about the notes or the pitch-perfect delivery. It was about the raw honesty and the connection to something much deeper.

Reba’s Reaction to the Performance

As the final note faded away, Reba sat there for a moment, clearly collecting herself. Tears welled up in her eyes as she processed everything she had just witnessed. When she finally spoke, her words were filled with admiration and heartfelt appreciation.

“Your runs, when you hit the high notes, everything was perfect,” she told Josh. “Whatever you got from this song, it was just right.” Reba then added, “I feel like I’ve known you forever. When we got to be in the rehearsal, I just felt like we bonded, and that was really, really special to me.”

It’s moments like these that remind us why music is such a powerful medium. It has the ability to bring people together, to create connections that transcend words, and to heal in ways that nothing else can.

Reba Chooses Josh as the Winner

In the end, Reba made the decision that many saw coming. She chose Josh as the winner of the battle, a choice that was met with applause from the audience. This battle wasn’t just a showcase of talent—it was a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit.

With Reba McEntire, John Legend, Dan + Shay, and Chance the Rapper coaching this season, the competition on 'The Voice' is fiercer than ever. Each coach brings their own unique perspective and expertise, and it’s clear that the artists on their teams are benefitting from their guidance in incredible ways.

Reba Clears Up Rumors About Leaving 'The Voice'

Just last month, the beloved actress from the show 'Reba' took to social media to address rumors that she was leaving 'The Voice' after only one season. “Please do not click on any articles that say I am leaving 'The Voice'. This is not true,” she wrote on X in February 2024. She also debunked claims that she was involved in selling weight loss gummy products, clarifying that these were fake websites designed to lure people in with clickbait.

Reba joined the coaching panel in season 24 of 'The Voice', stepping in after Blake Shelton decided to exit the franchise in season 23. When asked about what qualities she looks for in artists who join her team, she explained, “I go with what touches my heart and hopefully it will touch the hearts of the viewers at home.”
