Controversy and criticism
The show faced controversy when Rebekah Samarin, a contestant on Team Adam, was the only contestant in the history of the show to make it to the third round of the competition and have all of their performances, including her Blind Audition, Battle, and Knockout round, montaged.[37] Samarin took to Twitter to comment about this, saying "While I am appreciative of the experience, I am baffled by The Voice's blatant disregard and disrespect of my time and efforts."[38]
