Kelly Clarkson had one remaining place to fill on Team Kelly\u2019s Live Shows lineup, and five singers were competing for it during Season 30\u2019s Cut Week. After hearing each performance, Clarkson chose 13-year-old Brianna Cameron, whose rendition of Natalie Cole\u2019s \u201cInseparable\u201d showed the coach a side of her talent she had not seen before.<\/p>\n

The five contenders each brought a different style to the stage. Marcus Ladden Jr. sang Lou Rawls\u2019 \u201cYou\u2019ll Never Find Another Love Like Mine,\u201d while Brooklyn Marie performed Elton John\u2019s \u201cGoodbye Yellow Brick Road.\u201d Nina Howland took on Rene\u00e9 Rapp\u2019s \u201cIn the Kitchen,\u201d and Kyle Davis closed the group with Blind Faith\u2019s \u201cCan\u2019t Find My Way Home.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Clarkson praised Nina\u2019s emotional connection to her song and called Kyle a special singer with a distinctive voice. Adam Levine complimented Brooklyn\u2019s high notes and potential. Brianna, the youngest of the five at 13, made a strong impression with \u201cInseparable.\u201d Clarkson compared her to a young Whitney Houston, and Queen Latifah praised the poise she brought to the performance. Riley Green called Brianna \u201cthe most naturally talented person\u201d on the show this year.<\/p>\n

What Clarkson saw in Brianna<\/h2>\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n

Explaining her decision, Clarkson said Brianna had revealed \u201canother layer\u201d of her talent\u2014something the coach had not previously seen from her. She also said she wanted to recognize the young singer\u2019s ability at such an early age.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Brianna\u2019s selection completed Team Kelly\u2019s Live Shows lineup alongside Koumba Diallo and Anna McElroy. The other coaches\u2019 three-person lineups were also set: Team Adam Levine advanced Lexi Stephens, Connor Closs and Dakota Cohen; Team Queen Latifah chose Mia Knight, BigCountry and Lillie Kolich; and Team Riley Green selected Ferryn & Brinkley, Cade Mower and Joe Henley.<\/p>\n

Brooklyn later shared that the five Team Kelly contestants had gathered backstage and agreed to support whichever singer Clarkson chose. The 14-year-old from Alexandria, Minnesota, said they promised to be happy for and supportive of the person who advanced. Clarkson had also praised Brooklyn\u2019s bold song choice and said her youthful innocence worked in her favor onstage.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

One more place in the Top 13 remained to be filled. America was set to vote for an artist from the 16 contestants who had not been selected by their coaches, with the result due during the November 9 Live Shows premiere.<\/p>\n

During Season 30\u2019s Cut Week on The Voice, Marcus Ladden Jr., Brooklyn Marie, Brianna Cameron, Nina Howland and Kyle Davis each performed for a chance to advance.<\/p>\n

Thirteen-year-old Brianna took on Natalie Cole\u2019s \u201cInseparable,\u201d drawing praise from the coaches. Clarkson compared the young singer to Whitney Houston, but there was more to consider than one striking performance.<\/p>\n

With different strengths on display, what did Clarkson see that would help her settle the difficult choice? The story also includes how the five contestants supported one another backstage.<\/p>\n
