A contestant on The Voice: Celebrity has reportedly dropped out of the competition, causing “chaos” behind the scenes. Season 31 of the singing competition will feature celebrities as contestants for the first time ever.

The Voice: Celebrity Contestant Drops Out of Show?

It was recently announced that Season 31 of The Voice, which is currently in production, will feature celebrity contestants. According to The Sun, one of those contestants has unexpectedly quit the show, causing backstage drama.

The contestant in question is reportedly TikTok star Bella Poarch. After making it through the Blind Audition round, Poarch reportedly left the competition just days before the Battle round, causing “chaos” for producers behind the scenes.

Because each of the coaches’ teams is supposed to feature a specific number of artists, the producers were tasked with adjusting things so the teams would be even before the Battles. Season 31 will feature three coaches — Queen Latifah, Riley Green, and Joe Jonas.

Bella Poarch is a 29-year-old Filipino and American singer who rose to fame on TikTok, where she currently has over 91 million followers. She released her debut EP Dolls in 2022.
