Discuss the first ever season of the Australian version of The Voice here

[Johnson]

Singing sensations Delta Goodrem and Keith Urban touched down in Australia yesterday before The Voice starts filming next week.
While Goodrem was flying solo, Urban was accompanied by wife Nicole Kidman, 44, and daughters Sunday Rose, 3, and Faith Margaret, 14 months.
They are back in Sydney to sit on the coaching panel alongside Seal and Joel Madden on Nine's reality singing competition.
It is believed Seal and Madden will fly in this week, with no word as to whether Madden will have his family in tow - wife Nicole Richie and children Harlow and Sparrow - after reports their relationship is on the rocks.
If Richie is a no-show, the Good Charlotte rocker will have a friend in Seal, who split from model wife Heidi Klum this year.
Kidman will take a back seat to her country star husband while staying in Sydney, with the Oscar-winning actor believed to be jetting back and forth from the US as The Voice records in the coming months.
Meanwhile, Melbourne theatre star Matt Hetherington is believed to be set to try his luck as a contestant for The Voice's blind auditions, which begin filming next week.

I hope they start screening 2-3 weeks before AGT or something. Going up against them in the ratings is SO stupid

I got a ticket to go on Sunday. I'm so excited

Have fun Zoe, should be good especially with Delta being a Judge/Mentor
It had in the paper recently that Mr McFadden had said that The Voice and Australias Got Talent would be going up against each other this season, which may well be right, I recall last year when the showed the original The Voice they were shown in the same timeslot against each other, for me The Voice is a much better concept and entertaining show than AGT and with Delta being in it I would certainly watch The Voice

Have fun Zoe, should be good especially with Delta being a Judge/Mentor

Thanks xo

Seal and Joel Madden arrived in Sydney separately, for the auditions this weekend.

As the ratings in Australia do aswell as they did here it wil trash AGT.
However two different countries two different ratings.

TVOH beat HGT by 1 million vievers on averige.

HAVING only 10 per cent of her vision has not stopped Rachael Leahcar from reaching her dreams.
The 17-year-old is in Sydney this week auditioning in front of Delta Goodrem, Seal, Keith Urban and Joel Madden for a spot on Channel 9's newest reality show The Voice Australia.
"I'm not allowed to say much about the show at the moment, but obviously I'm both excited and nervous," said Rachael this week.
Rachael, a former Brighton High student, has been singing since she was young, but started performing around Adelaide in the past three years.
While she was forced to pull out of a few pre-booked shows to appear on the television series, Rachael, who is both a client and ambassador for the Royal Society for the Blind, will be performing at the RSB's Clipsal lunch at the National Wine Centre on February 29.

Earlier this week the Herald Sun revealed that Melbourne actor Matt Hetherington is also auditioning.

According to The Sunday Telegraph, blind auditions start today and finish on Wednesday (February 22). The series could launch in May or June.

[Brad]

Or April?

Thanks Johnson for posting the article on Rachael Leahcar, it will be interesting to see how she goes, it sort of puts a different perspective on blind auditions good luck to her

It’s a show that features “blind auditions” but yesterday audience members waiting to watch the first recording of The Voice couldn’t see enough seats at FOX Studios.
Booking agent Applause Store has been accused of overbooking the event.
Many queued for hours only to be sent home.
On the official Facebook page fans tell tales of the show over-booking by 700 tickets, and then deleting complain posts online.
Applause Store's response was that seats were available on a first come, first served basis.

SOME relatives of some very big names will try their luck as contestants of Channel 9's new show, The Voice.
Mahalia Barnes, the daughter of Australian rock great Jimmy Barnes, has auditioned for the new show.
Barnes has a booming voice and has sung back-up vocals for her famous father in the past.
The brother of Guy Sebastian, Chris, has also auditioned for the show.
No broadcast date has been announced for The Voice yet, but it's expected to air after Easter.
