year

s old. I did everything: jazz, tap, lyrical ballet, hip-hop. Everything helps me not to be so afraid of acting and to feel more comfortable on stage. Hi everybody how are you? Hello, the youngest in this competition, yes, are you nervous? When I was a kid, he was shy, but my mom helped me get over it.

She says she saw a friend in public. She would be like Kennedy, singing them a song. and I was like uh and then as I got older she kept doing it and I just have a song right there I'm just singing it looks like you're primed and ready to go I'm I'm ready that's another one The thing about the age, they don't think about it too much, like us old people, absolutely, my mom and I are stupid together like in the car, we make videos, it's a lot of fun, oh, let's make ourselves before the video.

I think overall she's an amazing person. Know? very loving and beautiful she is everything to me her first performance was at school she actually sang the jennifer hudson song i'm changing that was the first time i saw her come out and just do it and i was like oh we're onto something when I'm not singing I'm like a normal student I go to school every day at six in the morning I play volleyball I run on the track She dances so she likes to do everything and I can swim Now start you I should know better than that I'm trying not to get nervous, the chair spins, maybe they have to call an ambulance, I know I'm your dad, but I admire you too, just breathe, oh I'm trying to breathe, I'm so proud to be her dad and I'll witness this journey with her.

Well, let me be the first to thank you for coming to the

voice

because our ratings are going to skyrocket this season. Damn, I think you're the best vocalist to ever audition for this. year thank you your voice already sounds so experienced and accomplished and so much control so much range oh my god I don't want you to be distracted by the fact that I'm a country artist and you are the greatest artist of all time. uh, I've worked with people of all kinds of different genders and I've done well. I want you to choose me as your coach so you can teach me to sing like this, thank you, thank you, I'm like crying, you're so pretty. so that you know that the most beautiful parts of your voice are not even the largest, the most beautiful, those intimate ones in which you leave that roundness of that falsetto, that main voice as fixed, that's it, it's so good, thank you, I You deserved every one of these. chairs spinning girl you sound so beautiful how long have you been thinking if you're just oh great oh lord oh you're okay she just realized that jennifer hudson is talking to her oh okay so in one of my first performances I sang I'm changing and I've dreamed of singing with you I'm ready what did you say she said I'm ready so happy me look at me and I'm trying to find a way to understand but I need you I need you I need you're amazing okay thank you so much does that mean you'll come to me team, oh my god, I'm like crying, you're so talented, you're a star, it's an honor and a pleasure to just sing with you, thank you, thank you?

So much so, I'm going to pretend you have a chance, no, no, very rarely does someone come along to rekindle our passion for what we do and listening to you sing today was what I saw you address to each person on the panel. fearlessly and with all the heart and soul you were throwing into it just to see that kind of confidence exists naturally in you at such a young age, it's unheard of that after 15 seasons you can actually become the biggest thing ever existed. this show, so you should be on my team, I think if Adam loved you enough, he would sing.

I am also changing with you. Thanks Kelly, you are a gym and I understand how special and precious that is. I could instill every inch of what I can give you. I will do it and I will be that coach that will be there for you no matter what. Thank you so much. Okay, Kennedy, it's time who you choose as coach. Adam has a chance, I think? Adam, I truly love and adore each and every one of you, but I chose Jennifer. I think the game is over because I just won the voice with little Miss Kennedy.

Yes, congratulations. Jennifer has turned out to be the biggest threat if you ask me. she took a season off she did her homework she's renewed she's a pain in all our asses you win it's over yeah long time she's so good yeah I can only base my decision on who I feel is smarter I have to go with Kennedy Knockouts stars What about us? What happens with love? What about trust? What about us? Cocks and stones may break these bones but then I'll be ready Are you ready now is the time to leave me? What about us?

What about us? What about us? Remember those walls. I'm going to close, I'm surrounded, baby, I can feel your head, hello, tell me, fade away, I can feel your hair to never have sunlight on my face, you were happy to let me shine, that's your way, you always and everything , I would like to be it. it might have seemed unknown i want you to know i know the truth of course i know i would be nothing without you i ever told you i wish thank god for you the wind beneath me i believe children are our future teach them good, and let them lead the walk, show them all the beauty they have inside, give them pride to make it easier, let the laughter of children remind us of how we used to be.

We are all looking for a hero. People need someone to look up to. I never found. anyone who satisfied my needs a lonely place to be and so I learned to depend on myself I decided a long time ago never to walk in anyone's shadows if I fail if I succeed at least I live is the best I found the best yourself is the best and if for By chance, that special place you've been dreaming of takes you by force, yeah, who's so cute? What I see there, that's me standing in the mirror, what's that I see hanging from my neck? oh, get it, let's go now, I thank God every The day I woke up, it wouldn't be me either.

Hey, hey, I'm no stranger to the dark hideaway, they say, 'cause we don't want your broken parts, dust, I know there's a place for us 'cause we're glorious when the shark's words want. cut me this is me be careful because here this is not me we are breaking through the barricades I know there is a place for us I am who I should be this is who I should be this is me This is me, this is me, put me down, love it or hate it, keep dancing on them, the haters keep getting funky on the scene while they jump, they try to take away all your dreams, but you can't let it 'cause I'm happy.

I'm alone happiness is not an offense to you don't waste your time all the time lower me I can't do anything lower me my level is too difficult lower us to the canine lower us our level is too high lower us to the canine knock us down oh you have to tip us how can I pass one night without you if I had to live without you what kind of life would that be oh why do I need you in my arms I need it would take away all the good that is in my life how I breathe how I live how I live without you I want to know without you if how you you felt like it was a long

road

yes kennedy congratulations thank you you're the youngest in this competition let's take a little trip Back to the blind auditions the four

coaches

turned around the moment jennifer hudson opens her mouth you start to cry, is it her?

Oh, I mean, she's been my idol since she was extremely young and Jennifer Hudson in person was surreal and it's inspiring. knowing that I've had an impact on someone so young and so talented, I found it very moving, so it seems like a great couple to go to the battles, the knockouts, but with Meghan Trainor on that team, who knew you could dance like that. effortlessly I just want it to be versatility is that the word I want to show my versatility yes, you got it, that's for sure and there was a moment that caught my attention during the rehearsal of this is me, of the greatest showman, where you were very excited, watch out because here I go, oh I have to catch you, it really hit me and I feel like connecting with it and feeling without singing, that's exactly what it's about at that moment, you graduated even more, she's a singer and a dancer, now she's a storyteller.

In the song, do you want to win or have you already won by being in the final? I feel like yeah, I think this is a great song for her to sing in the finale because I feel like it represents everything it takes to get this far, Kennedy. She's grown up and she's getting back to her own thing and we're really seeing who Kennedy is. Make sure to vary it even more because it gets a little repetitive in the end. Are you going to dance with this? I think so. I think you should. a celebration I want everyone to be able to stand up and let's just make the goal jennifer having faith in me keeps me going gives me confidence wanting to sing this song with confidence without her I wouldn't be where I am now kennedy is the complete package she is definitely someone I can listen to on the radio right now she's a star you're a mini boss yeah take it are you ready?

It's time for me to take it. I'm the boss right now. IM not going to do it. pretend now when you fall because this is me and I should be this is tonight I'm complicated what's wrong with being confident what's wrong with me what's wrong with them no no no no no no no no no no ah someone tell me think of a place I'd like to be at home I would like to be back then with your things that I have been knowing suddenly the raindrops that are far away have a mini dew in the sea makes everything clear but I still know where and still I have observed it I am growing to know if we should believe the things we see tell us if we should try it and stay safe to see it has taught me that we should do it when I think of a place where you are about to record your first single you are creating something that is going to last forever when I heard it I just wanted to get up and start I heard about you I heard you've been crying I heard you've been hiding who you really are I love this song it's so inspiring just make sure you own it and believe what you say this is my first time in the studio when was your first time Making your own music, how did you feel it's different from being on stage?

I feel like it's a place to show your creativity think about it or what you want your signature sound to be that's what this moment represents you'll be fine there you go just treat yourself like the queen you look like a pro that was great everyone wishes they were around 14 years old and talented and successful, oh my goodness, and it's a celebration for everyone. You noticed it, like people could buy your singles. It would be amazing on the airwaves and hearing it on the radio. I'm proud of you and I can't wait to see you. do even bigger things it seems like we've just started well it's like it seems like it's the beginning I think you've got a little bump on your hands you did it give me five bam love is free I heard about you I heard you'd been crying if you had I've been hiding who you really are.

I know it's hard to look at yourself in the mirror when you've been scared. The world has seen your scars. There is nothing better than treating yourself like a queen. Thank you. It's free. You don't need your money. You do not need. to buy love I bought love and I feel good there is nothing better than treating yourself every day of the week love is free love is free don't worry about changing people's minds it is and the best part is setting yourself free to you
