Though Sterlace came up short, Gwen Stefani praised the 16-year-old singer for making it this far in her young journey. “Every single moment counts. Being in the moment is what matters. Winning doesn’t matter. You’ve won,” Stefani said.
2nd Place: Shye (Team Bublé)

Right before the Voice winner was announced, Bublé promised that he and Shye would be working together in the future. “These are not the last words,” he said. “These are one of the many words that you and I are going to share going into a future together where I watch you make beautiful music.”
And The Voice Season 26 champion is…

Vasquez dropped to his knees once host Carson Daly named him the winner. Overcome with emotion, he cried tears of joy. Moments earlier, his coach, Michael Bublé, said the Filipino singer represented “the hope of so many people.” “Not just in the Philippines, but Asians everywhere truly are looking at you tonight. You have represented them so well. It has been an unbelievable journey,” Bublé said.
It’s been an incredible run for Vasquez, who earned a four-chair turn in the Blind Auditions and has stuck with Bublé since Day 1, building an impressive catalogue of performances throughout the season. His victory also earned Bublé his first win on his first try as a Voice coach.
Every coach’s duet with the Top 5
The coaches took the stage to perform memorable duets with their finalists. Stefani and Sterlace kicked it off with their take on “Wild World” by Cat Stevens, followed by Snoop Dogg and Beloate, who performed “(Sittin’ on) The Dock of the Bay“ by Otis Redding.
Bublé and Shye channeled Frank and Nancy Sinatra with their sweet cover of “Something Stupid,” before Reba McEntire and Joseph crooned “You Don’t Know Me“ by Cindy Walker. Lastly, Bublé partnered with Vasquez on the Motown classic “Who’s Lovin’ You” by The Miracles.
Every star-studded performance
The finale opened with the Top 8 (welcome back, Jan Dan, Adam Bohanan and Christina Eagle!) covering the musical hit “Defying Gravity” from Wicked.
