The Voice Super Save Returns 4 Eliminated Contestants to Live Semi-Finals

In a new twist during Season 27 of "The Voice," the coaches—Kelsea Ballerini, Michael Bublé, John Legend, and Adam Levine—were given a "Super Save" option to bring back one eliminated contestant each for the Live Semi-Finals. This rule expanded the competition from a Top 8 to a Top 12, with Olivia Kuper Harris, Kaiya Hamilton, Jaelen Johnston, and Conor James returning to compete alongside the remaining finalists. The first live show aired on May 12, marking the first time viewers could vote for their favorite singers, with voting open until the following morning. The live results episode on May 13 would determine which contestants advance to the finals, narrowing the field from twelve to five. Performances during the live show received high praise from coaches and host Carson Daly, highlighting the renewed energy brought by the returning artists. This format change aimed to retain the best talent longer in the competition and inject excitement into the semifinal stage.
