Carrie Underwood finishes residency, stars join season 27 of ‘The Voice’ | Music City Minute

Apr 16, 2025, 2:21 PM

Carrie Underwood’s Reflections residency in Las Vegas has been a smashing success. Fans lucky enough to attend the closing night performance were treated to an extra special experience. Underwood, who has been involved with Make-A-Wish Foundation for twenty years, invited Make-A-Wish kid Noel Walker on stage for a duet of “All American Girl.” The “Cry Pretty” singer also proudly handed over a nearly quarter million-dollar donation check to the foundation as well.

Season 27 of “The Voice” has been full of surprises. The latest shake-up involves the addition of two dazzling divas. Sheryl Crow and LeAnn Rimes have been announced to serve as mega mentors for the musical competition show. Each leading lady will advise two teams each, with Rimes serving as mentor for Team John Legend and Adam Levine, while Crow will mentor for Team Kelsea Ballerini and Michael Bublé in the playoff rounds.
