adam levine, shakira, usher and

Last year's champ,

So, for the first time this
season, the power to choose is

In your hands.
Tonight, you will help decide

Which one of these incredible
artists will represent their

Coaches in the top 12!
Six weeks ago, the journey began

When "the voice" returned with
two new coaches.

The excitement reached new
heights.

As returning champions adam
levine and blake shelten weon w

Joined by international icons,
sharkira and usher and they

Competed hard for the most
talented artists in the nation.

>> no.
Don't you pull out your spanish

Now.
>> I'm screwed right now.

>> that's what it sounds like to
me.

>> carson: As they each
assembled a team of 12, based on

Voice alone.
>> it really doesn't matter how

You look because it starts with
a voice.

>> carson: Our coaches then
paired their artists for the

Battles.
*

Picking winners.
>> I can't let you go.

>> carson: And stealing
performers to strengthen their

Teams.
Catia is saved by usher.

Then in the knockouts, the
artists faced instant

Elimination.
Who's the winner of this

Knockout?
As the coaches cut their teams

In half
>>

>> holly.
>> carson: Now only 16 artists

Remain and it's america's turn
to vote as they send two artists

From each team to the top 12
leaving our coaches to save only

One of their remaining artists
because only their best three

Will make it to the live shows.
The live shows are scary because

The competition is fierce.
>> carson: Tonight, team adam

And team usher take the stage to
compete for your votes.

I think that there needs to be a
big payoff.

>> I want to try something.

win it all and be named "the

Voice."
the live playoffs start right

Now!
Oh, it's on.

[ applause ]
a big night ahead.

Great music coming up.
Let's talk to our coaches.

We will start with one of the
two newbies in usher.

Usher, america will pick two of
your artists that move forward,

You will pick one.
What have you done to prepare

Team usher for tonight?
>> the most important part is

Positive projection, you only
hope you make it on the show and

Then have a victorious time
while here on the show but as

They perform together, the one
thing that I have told them is

That team work makes the dream
work.

>> carson: Very nice.
Thank you, usher.

[ applause ]
adam, you have a team full of

Great female artists.
What do they have to do to stand

Out?3 f2
>>> excelente, gracias usher, y

Talents.
I couldn't be happier and more

Excited to be inspired by them.
[ applause ]

>> carson: And they are going
tonight.

Tomorrow night, we will see team
blake and team sharkira.

They will take the stage.
In fact, they are in the

Audience tonight.
Give it up for team sharkira and

Team blake over there.
[ applause ]

Blake shelton, proud pa parks
last year's champ, two-time

Champ on "the voice."
what did you tell your team to

Look for tonight?
>> how you doing, buddies?

>> stop feeding his ego.
>> you know, somebody tonight, I

Guarantee you somebody, maybe
two people, will have a breakout

Moment on tonight's episode.
It happens year after year,

Where all of a sudden, someone
will show themselves as a

Leader, you know what I mean?
Someone who breaks out of the

Pack.
I want them to watch for that to

Happen tonight, 'cause it will
happen and figure out what it is

That person did that connect
eerd with the song or with the

Audience, that made themselves a
standout in the competition it

Will happen.
>> carson: Thank you, blake.

And sharkira, one of the new
members of ...

[ applause ]
the coaches here in season four

Of "the voice."
how are you feeling about going

Into the live shows, shacky?
>> excited.

We are live, finally.
I'm very curious, too to see

What america has to say and
decisions that will be made

Tonight, you know, even though
it is not my team's night, I

Still feel for those who have to
go home because it is always

Sad.
But you know, luckily, I'm not

In the hot seat and I can enjoy
the show like every other mortal

In america.
And I think it's going to be

Fun.
>> carson: Enjoy it.

Tomorrow night, you are in the
hot seat.

All members of team adam and
team usher will individually

Take the stage with
stripped-down performances so

You can focus on what really
matters around here ... the

Voice.
Plus ... two superstar coaches,

Adam and usher, will also be
joining forces for the very

First time on stage.
Amazing.

That's happening.
Tonight, let's talk about team

Usher, a group of diverse sing
wers very diverse styles to

Prepare for the group
performances this week, usher

Invited his team to warm up at a
surprising place.

Take a look.
>> team usher, how you guys

Doing?
>> good.

Good.
>> my point today in bringing

Them here was to give them an
understanding of how work on

Endurance will lead them to a
victory and knockout, you know,

Their performances?
Being a part of my team, I did

Promise you it would be a little
work.

The more difficult things about
being an entertainer is the work

That you have to put in.
Being able to sing and move at

The same time.
Everybody sees the great

Performers, but don't get a
chance to see this part.

You are being prepared for
success.

>> today, usher brought us to a
kick boxing gym to help prepare

Us for our first group
performance.

We are going to be singing black
and gold by sam sparrow.

>> gonna go in the ring, going
do some expl*sive endurance.

>> flow works with me in boxing
and flexibility, because there's

So much more that goes into
being an entertainer and to be

The best, you got to work.
>> let's go in the ring.

>> like battles and knockouts
but for reals.

>> get it.
>> I didn't expect to be

Training in a boxing gym for
singing.

See what he is going to throw at
us.

>> here you go coming your way.
All about expecting the

Unexpected.
Keep your eyes open.

>> I don't know how many people
can say they worked out with

Usher.
>> so much heavier than I

Thought.
My endurance isn't where it

Needs to be.
I need to put in the time to be

Where I need to be.
>> who fired up?

>> I'm fired up.
>> make sure you go to your

Breathing.
>> everything centered around

With connecting your with your
fi drarnlg the biggs muscle when

You are singing.
>> work together.

>> black and gold.
>> you shaller is making us sing

And exercise at the same time,
very difficult.

>> you have to be able to make
it through sometimes a

Two-hour-long show.
You guys only have one song to

Make it through.
You know how ready you gonna be?

>> so ready.
>> okay, y'all, one minute this

Is all about discipline.
>> to see usher come in here and

Actually work out with us shows
that he is connected with us on

A personal level.
After the today, I feel like the

Group song is going to be off
the chain.

>> one, two, three.
>> team usher.

>> that was awesome.
>> carson: The floyd may weather

Of coaches.
Here they are with "black and

Gold."
give it up for team usher.

*'cause if you're not
really here

I don't want to be either
I wanna be next to you *

But black *
*I feel a way of

Something beyond them
I don't see what

I can feel *

Only validation

Isn't real *
*'cause if you're not

[ cheers and applause ]
>> carson: Teach usher to get us

Going in the live playoffs.
Cathia, josiah, michelle and

Vedo, everybody!
When we come back, we will kick

Off the night with team adam's
amber carrington.

We are just getting started with
"the voice."

We will be right back.

[ cheers and applause ]
>> carson: Welcome back to "the

Voice."
we are live at universal studios

In hollywood for the playoffs.
Tonight, team adam and team

Usher will perform, and your
votes will help determine which

Artists will represent their
coaches in the top 12 live show

Next Monday.
Just a reminder that voting

Opens at the end of the show.
Our playoff performances start

With an artist from team adam.
It's the powerful 20-year old

Texas country singer returning
to her love of music,

Amber carrington.

>> before "the voice," my mom
passed away and I had to put my

Music career on hold.
Then I decided that it would be

Good for me to actually start
performing again.

At my blind auditions, I was so
terrified but adam ended up

Being the one to turn around.
>> you're going to be one of the

Biggest surprises of this entire
competition.

>> I work at a little boutique
in royce city, texas.

I can't believe I'm on adam's
team.

It's amazing.
At the battles, I was paired

With asha allen, she is very
intimidating but somehow I

Pulled it off and then I won the
knockouts.

This experience has been unreal.
I just don't want this to end.

First of all, I want to say
thank you so much for picking

Me.
My dad actually got to be up in

The stands watching me.
On my dad's side of the family,

We all sing and play music.
My dad's actually the reason

That I started singing in the
first place.

He is really busy with his work
but when he got to show up for

The knockouts, it was awesome.
*really really sure

>> amber is astonishing, I'm
really excited about her

Potential, doing "stay" by
rihanna.

>> different from everything I
have done so far.

Everything has been rocking,
this is so simple.

>> the other thing is no one has
heard your voice in its purity.

I see amber infusing country
into what she does, whether it

Is country or the pop song.
Her country roots definitely

Help connect the emotional dots
as well.

That second one, you should have
stayed that the second plateau.

*stay
just stay there.

>> okay.
*feel like I can't live without

You *
>> this song is very emotional

And I have to sing from my soul.
I feel like I have surprised

Adam every round and the song,
I'm just excited to show him

What I've got.
It means everything to move

Forward because I don't want to
go back home and I don't want to

Go back to working at the
boutique.

>> awesome.
If you pull this off, you have

The ability to do everything.
>> carson: Singing "stay," here

Is amber carrington.
*all along it was a fever

A cold sweat hot-headed
believer *

*round and around and
around and around

We go *
*oh now tell me now

Tell me now
tell me now

You know *
*not really sure how to

Feel about it
something in the way

You move *
*makes me feel like

Something in the way
*makes me feel like

Representing team adam with a
standing ovation from her coach

In the live playoffs.
All right.

Let's get some coach comments
before we get to adam.

Blake shelton, what did you
think?

>> oh, man.
You know, normally, it would

Suck to be the very first artist
to sing in the live shows

Because of all the stuff to
follow.

I got to say, I think it would
suck even worse to have to

Follow that.
That is setting the bar pretty

High tonight.
[ applause

[ applause ]
thank starbucks for this very

Special latte tonight.
It was very good.

>> carson: Usher?
>> I guess the objective was for

America to become more
familiar ... familiar with your

Voice and to have an intimate
experience and I think that

You ... you did that.
I think you ...

[ applause ]
definitely gave a heartfelt

Performance and I really look
forward to the follow-up.

>> carson: Sharkira, what did
you think?

>> hi, amber.
>> hi.

>> I'm such a fan of yours and
I'm so glad that adam turned for

You causbei do feel that you
have something very special to

Offer to all of us here in this
competition.

That was a beautiful
performance.

>> thank you.
>> needless to say.

Congratulations.
[ applause ]

>> carson: And now coach adam?
>> oh, amber.

I mean, you know, I did say ... I
was the only one who turned

Around, I did say you were going
to be the biggest surprise in

The competition and I still
believe that I believe that you

Fulfilled that in every single
way.

You know, it's really ... when do
you a song that's so intimate

Like that and perform, I ... it's
so hard to be caught up in every

Single second of a performance
like that.

There are always moments where
you feel, oh, they were shaky

Here, they didn't hit that note.
You are very much vulnerable to

That, you know?
Like you really hear your voice.

So you had me for every second
of that performance and you

Could literally not have done a
more incredible job.

[ cheers and applause ]
>> carson: High praise from the

Coach adam levine.

Amber carrington.
What a way to get started.

When we come back, team usher's
josiah hawley follows up.

[ cheers and applause ]
>> carson: Welcome back to "the

Voice," the live playoffs
tonight.

Four artists from team adam and
four artists from team usher are

Performing, the first time this
season, you get vote and help

Determine which artists will
represent their coaches in the

Top 12.
Before we hear from our next

Artist, let's check in with
christina milian in our fancy

New sprint sky box.
Hello there christina milian.

>> christina: Hello there,
carson.

I'm here with judith, amber who
just got off the stage, vedo.

Great job.
Great job.

You are our first artist to
perform live tonight, amber.

How did it feel?
>> amazing.

The crowd's, like, energy, was
insane.

Knowing that america is watching
right now.

[ applause ]
it's awesome.

>> christina: Big crowds out
there.

For the first time this season,
two coaches will be taking the

Stage together for a duet.
Usher posted this photo of their

Rehearsal on his instagram,
check that out.

That's right, usher and adam.
Now, I really can't wait to see

Them hit the stage.
Plus, you can join the live chat

With your favorite artist from
every season in the free z box

App while you watch tonight's
show.

Back to you, carson.
>> carson: Thank you, christina.

Looking forward to it.
We appreciate it let's top now

With an artist from team usher.
It's the model from arkansas who

Is putting that career on hold
to pursue his dreams in music,

Josiah hawley.
>> the blind audition is kind of

Surreal.
Team blake, usher, and adam turn

And want to work with you, it is
an amazing experience.

>> I think I'm going to have to
go with usher.

Life on team usher is good, he
pinpoints exactly what he think

Also you need to grow in.
>> you will have to fight more

For this mic.
>> I feel my thought process

Approaching the song is
different now, usher, everything

He taught me.
>> how have you been?

>> great to be here and just
focus on music full time.

My dad a jazz pianist and I want
to keep that with my tone, pop

Rock with jazz influence.
I'm excited.

This will be a good one.
>> the song I gave josiah is

"star light" by muse, the type
of music he could potentially do

I made a few calls.
So, no pressure.

>> thank you, muse, for this
song.

>> josiah, his ability to hold a
guitar and convey sexual

Confidence, commitment to the
song, is what really wins for

Him.
*

>> step away from the mic, take
that breath.

This song is really all about
keeping control.

>> I have to be careful not
to ... not to push too much.

The challenge on this song is
breath control.

You don't want everybody to hear
it either.

>> it is about him performing
the song in a believable way and

Have the confidence the entire
90 seconds.

[ applause ]
>> carson: With "starlight,"

Please welcome josiah hawley.3 2

And I guess ... I guess I'll have
to fill in.

Blake shelton, what did you
think?

>> sarah, I've been telling you
that you've been ... you're one

Of my favorite singers sing
since you have been on the show

This season and for good reason.
I'm gonna stop saying that

Because it's not helping my
cause any here, but that was ...

>> or mine.
>> my gosh, that was so amazing.

I mean, that was ... that was
beautiful.

That was angelic.

Blake, you think that was one of

The moments that you want your
team to look out that you

Mentioned at the top of the
show?

>> yes.
Yes.

Do that.
[ laughter ]

>> yeah, watch out.
>> carson: They are going

Tomorrow night.
Let's see, usher, how did you

Feel about that?
>> while we n alcaas coaches

Be stick letters for detail, for
flats or sharps, you know, I'm

Pretty sure a song like this
conjure

Conjures up emotions, very hard,
difficult emotions, having lost

Someone.
You know, that was a very

Complicated song and I wanted to
hear the sarah that I know come

Out and eventually she came out
and ripped.

I have been paying attention to
you as well.

And I really do feel like you
did a good job with t therethin

But that aside, you were
incredible.

>> carson: Sharkira, what did
you think?

>> I think I can only say this
in spanish.

[ speaking spanish ]
incredible.

You really owned your
performance.

You're so emotional.
You're a very emotional person,

Right?
I can tell.

You were connecting to the song
from top to the bottom.

You were making me feel.
And that's all I ... I ... I care

About.
And you know, I've liked you

From the start.
And you didn't disappoint me

Today.
You delivered.

[ speaking spanish ]
[ applause ]

>> carson:
[ speaking spanish ]

Translation.
Thought you did a great job.

Coach adam levine, you looked,
watching sarah, like she just

Hit a home run.
>> yeah.

Man, sarah, everybody said
amazing things.

Thank you, guys.
I think that, first of all, I

Never heard this room so quiet.
And that can either be the worst

Thing in the world or the best
thing, depending on what you're

Trying to achieve.
I felt the stillness in this

Room because everybody was so
completely enam mored with what

You were doing, that they just
couldn't speak.

I really believe that.
[ applause ]

I think someone has to win,
someone those lose, all that

Nonsense, at the end of the day,
you are one of the most

Incredible singers to listen to
I have ever heard in my life.

>> carson: Give it up one more
time from team adam, she is

Sarah simmons.

Coming up, team usher tackles a
whitney houston anthem and a

First-ever collaboration you are

Family proud.

with nothing.

>> just follow your dream.
>> it's something that I'm truly

Grateful for.
*

Since blind odd day, just an
absolute blessing to have my mom

See me and continue this
journey.

In the battle rounds, I was
holding back tears.

>> carson: We have got a steal!
>> usher pressed his button, I

Was like, oh, my god.
Knockout rounds were really

Intense.
>> catia, I was really blown

Away by "the voice."
>> carson: Catia!

>> being picked by usher shows I
just have the power in my voice

To be able to continue on.
*don't make me close one more

Door *
>> I gave catia "I have nothing"

By whitney houston, she is a
latin artist, she can sing a pop

Record and she has the type of
voice to support a record like

That.
>> the fact that I get to do

This for my first live show, I
can make a statement.

>> when you rely solely on that
vib brat toe, it cuts you short,

Stretch it out a little bit more
and think of it as a waltz.

>> okay.
>> come here real quick.

Sorry.
Got to do this with you.

*share my love
I'm attempting to make her voice

Dance.
You listen to the pattern of it

And the way it sways.
*I don't want to go

My heart was racing, I'm like,
okay, nerves come down, but

Waltzing with him really gave me
a feel of what it should sound

Like.
>> yes!

*nothing
>> catia comes out and uses all

Of the technique that she's been
taught, america will vote for

Her for the next round.
[ cheers and applause ]

>> carson: Singing "I have
nothing," here is catia.

*share my life
take me for what I am

'cause I'll never change
all my colors for you *

*I don't really need to
look very much further

I don't want to have to go
where you don't follow *

*I won't hold it back again
this passion inside

Can't run from myself

There's nowhere to hide * f2
(música)*

*don't make me close
one more door

I don't wanna hurt
anymore *

*stay in my arms
if you dare

Or must I imagine
you there *

One more door
I don't wanna hurt

Anymore *

Nothing, nothing *
*if I don't have you

>> carson: That is catia
representing team usher in the

Live playoffs tonight.
[ applause ]

>> thank you.
>> carson: What a beast of a

Song to have to do we got to
start with shakira, your former

Coach.
Sharkira, what was it like for

You to watch catia tonight?
>> you did great, catia.

I mean, I'm still rooting for
you even though you are not part

Of my team because I know how
much drive you have and how

Determined you are as a latina,
you are.

But the only thing is that,
catia, usher, I don't know, that

Song, it's sung a bar too high
for her.

Whitney houston is ... taking a
whitney houston song is like

Stepping on holy ground.
I don't know.

I would have not picked that
song if I were being your coach,

But I'm not your coach anymore.
>> carson: We will hear from the

New coach, usher in a second.
Blake, what did you think?

>> oh, uh ... oh.
I thought ... I'm not as familiar

With ... we all know that song I
guess is what I'm trying to get

At.
Not as familiar with all pop

Music that is one that
transcends everything and I'm

Not that hard on it, as hard as
sharkira was.

I thought it was really ... I
thought it was really good.

[ applause ]
>> carson: Coach usher?

Former coach is sharkira says
lofty choice.

>> you know, um, it's ... it's
times like this that it's a make

Or break.
I do believe in your talent, I

Do believe that this was a song
you could knock out of the park.

I do feel like there are a lot
of things that played into maybe

Not having such an incredible
performance.

But that doesn't say that you
can't go all the way to the end.

That doesn't say that you're not
an incredible vocalist.

Doesn't say that you're not an
incredible performer that

Doesn't say that you didn't come
out here with the type of

Confidence that you have to and
that I appreciate.

Okay?
>> thank you.

>> carson: One more time,
representing team usher now,

That is catia, everybody.
Coming up next, for the first

Time ever, you are not gonna
want to miss this.

Adam levine and usher perform
together when "the voice"

Returns.
And it is awesome.

It's next on nbc.
We will be back.

Win.
Tonight, these two megastars

So excited for this.

We hope you are too.
With "superstition," give it up

You are watching "the voice,"

Live here on nbc.
We will be back.

[ cheers and applause ]
>> carson: We are back live on

"the voice."
this is the week of the

Playoffs.
Tomorrow night, we return tore

Team blake and team shakira's
performance.

Wednesday, the top 12 will be
revealed.

Next, we turn to an artist adam
stole from blake, the

19-year-old singer/songwriter
from st. Louis who is taking big

Risks to follow her dreams,
caroline glazer.

>> before the blind auditings, I
was just playing at coffee

Shops. Ons, I
was just playing at coffee

Shops.
Before blake turned ...

>> so much artist trip.
>> connected right away with the

Singer/songwriter thing.
In the battles, when I was

Stolen by adam, I was so excited
that my dream wasn't over and

Being here and getting to work
with these two great coaches,

Adam and blake, it has been
amazing and I'm so blessed.

>> I know that you dropped a lot
for this.

>> yeah.
>> and at your age, when I was

Starting out, it's what I did.
I really admire that

>> my freshman year at the
university of kansas, I actually

Had to withdraw for this
opportunity because music was

Always my passion and I think
it's awesome that he could

Understand where I'm coming
from.

>> carolyn is singing "the a
team" and pretty serious subject

Matter and I thought an
opportunity for her to sing

Something darker than they
expect that is part of being a

Singer/songwriter.
Just pick spots to play some

Really clean notes.
The one thing it lacks is a big

Payoff at the end.
>> yeah r I think the biggest

Challenge with this song is
finding a big moment just

Because I'm not a powerhouse
singer and I want there to be

Like a magic part everyone is
like, oh, that's what I want to

Hear.
It is scary being against these

Three girls because they are so
amazing.

>> america is going to pick two
of you.

I get to save one.
You stand out.

You are different than those
other three.

That he is a huge chip to have.
>> my style is very different.

And I just hope that that's what
people want to hear.

[ applause ]
>> carson: Singing "the a team,"

Here is caroline glazer.

Blake shelt.You must have loved
that that's in your wheelhouse.

What do you think?
>> I did love it.

I love it when I don't know the
song because ...

>> [ inaudible ]
>> I know.

I know.
Because I can just enjoy what I

Was hearing there from you, you
know?

I felt like I was back in st.
Louis or wherever that coffee

Shop, the type of thing you are
doing there and that is the

First time I have seen you do
what I think that you do and

That was ... that was a great
move.

I was having a special latte
back in that coffee shop.

>> carson: Do they pay you or
something?

>> I was.
I was.

[ applause ]
>> carson: Usher?

>> caroline, it was very
soothing.

Relaxed.

And I do know that america's
gonna vote for you.

>> carson: Thank you, usher.
[ applause ]

Right now, we move on to your
coach.

>> dimples?

Am.

Dimples first.
>> carson: That's different

Phone number.
[ laughter ]

Coach adam, how did your girl
do?

>> oh, caroline, you know, I
think that you're ... you

Expressed that your biggest fear
was not being a powerhouse

Vocalist but that's kind of a
loaded term, powerhouse

Vocalist.
What a powerhouse vocalist

Really is a vocalist that can
capture your attention, doesn't

Matter how big and dramatic the
singing is, it matters what you

Do is really unique and really
special.

And I told you that you should
just embrace that side of who

You are around not worry about
competing with anybody and

That's exactly what you did, you
did an amazing job and you're,

You know, one of the more unique
sounding people in this

Competition and you should just
be so proud of what you do.

>> carson: If you want carine ol
to represent team adam in the

Top 12 ...

>> carson: Straight ahead, team
usher a he is vedo performs live

On "the voice" stage.
Don't move.

Again, voting starts tend of the

Taking the stage next, it's the
atlanta r & b vocalist who's

Finding his identity as an
artist, vedo.

>> before the blinds, I have
done over 250 shows.

I performed for high schools,
middle schools.

I had a tough time juggling my
music and, you know, personal

Life.
The song I sang for my audition

Was "boyfriend."
usher turned around.

The battle rounds, I gave it my
all.

>> reed is development.
>> and I prevailed.

This competition helps me as a
performer.

>> we all jumped up and go, here
comes vedo.

>> grow as a person.
>> how you doing, sir?

>> I gave vedo "against all
odds" by phil collins.

I know he can dance, he can
move.

Can he stand still and move you
with his voice?

I think so
>> I never heard of phil collins

Before.
I heard "against all odds" I was

Like what?
>> this is for someone who had

Tumultuous things happen in his
life but the same time, ving

Tris, it kind of speaks to both
sides.

>> when I listened to the song,
I was like, oh, yes, this is it.

*and there's nothing left here
to remind me of just a memory of

Your *
>> you're a little pitchy.

>> okay.
*left here

much you use your die florida.

You got stiffen your stomach so
that you don't overshoot that

Note, you know what I mean?
*so take a look at me now

>> you got to milk those moments
where you belt.

>> okay.
>> if vedo allows people to see

How much he has evolved from the
blind auditions to now, I think

America will vote him through to
the next round.

Coach, usher.
How did vedo do tonight?

hill for you can not being too

Familiar with the power and
meaning or depth behind this

Song, I think you replaced it

That probably didn't.
I was 100% pleased with your

Performance and I look forward

I wasn't really developing in my
solo career.

*I kissed a girl around I liked
it *

>> you are very talented.
We could go far.

>> I picked usher because there
was a feeling in my gut.

I know without a shadow of a
doubt I have the best coach.

Could I drop and give you 20,
still be out.

>> those I have to do with you.
>> I'm learning so much here.

There's no resource like this.
I'm truly grateful I'm still

Able to be here still singing.
*don't be discouraged

>> the song I gave michelle was
"true colors."

I feel like this song will
definitely allow her to open up

And an vulnerable in front of
this audience.

These are very personal lyrics
what do they mean to you?

>> I'm singing to someone who is
having a difficult time and

Sometimes you have to just be
like I see you for who you are

And that's beautiful, sometimes
you need someone to tell you the

Same thing.
>> michelle, that's why this

Song is perfect for you.
>> yeah.

>> it's beautiful.
>> thanks, usher.

>> growing up, I realized that
the things that I might like to

Do were maybe different.
I knew upon receiving the song

That it was one that hit very,
very close to home.

>> I want to try something.
Oh, man, are you serious?

*in a world full of people
>> I want mich toll feel

Comfortable in her own skin and
for the world to see her true

Colors.

because he wants me to apply the

Song to myself.
I was more terrified of the idea

Of singing into the mirror than
actually doing t

definitely be a breakout moment

For her.
>> carson: With "true colors,"

Please welcome michelle chamuel.

*you with the sad eyes
don't be discouraged

Oh I realize
it's hard to take courage *

shot of you on tv, I don't think

Anybody was watching that
performance more intently than

You.
>> that was beautiful, michelle.

I think you always manage to
reveal your true colors.

You're so authentic and I liked
that so much about you.

I think people like authentic

Is who we are in life and you
are just like that.

And you always go for it.
So ...

Of usher, I watched that thing
with the mirror, whatever that

Idea was, for you to sing that
