THE VOICE is making a major change to its competition format—and it’ll kick off with the Monday, April 15 episode.
The “Live Cross Battles” stage of the competition—which replaces the “Knockouts,” which has been a fixture on the series since season 7—will find the season 16 coaches (Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, John Legend, and Kelly Clarkson) going head-to-head with each other, selecting one artist/group from their team to compete against a contestant from another team. America will vote on the winner of each round to move forward to the Top 24 live show.
