'The Voice' Premiere, Pt. 2: Blind Auditions (The Fools Who Dream)
La La Land caught some flak this Oscar season for its lack of gritty realism, which is probably why it ultimately lost Best Picture to the starker and harder-hitting Moonlight. Raised on movie musicals, this 26-year-old actress/singer journeyed three years ago to La La Land, where she now waits tables while awaiting her big break. Honestly, this wasn’t just one of the greatest hard-sell coach pitches in Voice history — Alicia’s seemingly impromptu “Oh Lilli” serenade was actually better than Lilli’s audition! Lilli of course chose to join Team Alicia, and The Voice Season 12 may lead to her happy Hollywood ending.
