The Voice USA 2017 Season 12 is entering one of the most exciting stages of the competition – the Live Playoffs. It is the first time in this season that the NBC's three-time Emmy Award-winning reality television show will go live.
All the episodes of The Voice Season 12 aired so far, that is from Blind Auditions to the Knockouts were pre-recorded ones. However, contestants will now perform live on television and the public will decide their fate through their votes, which means the coaches -- Adam Levine, Gwen Stefani, Alicia Keys and Blake Shelton -- will face the risk of ending up without any artiste in the competition.
