In a leaked clip from the upcoming season of The Voice, 13-year-old Kennedy Holmes takes the stage during the auditions and flawlessly performs Adele's "Turning Tables." Confident and talented beyond her years, Holmes' voice turned each of the coaches chairs starting with Adam Levine and followed by a quick succession of button-hits by Blake Shelton, Jennifer Hudson and Kelly Clarkson.
"I think she could win. I really do," Shelton said, excitedly walking over to Hudson's chair. He jumped right in to tell Holmes, "I think you're the best vocalist that has auditioned this year." Shelton continued, pleading his case to convince Holmes to join his team: "I don't want you to get distracted by the fact that I'm a country artist and you're the greatest artist of all time. I've worked with people from all kinds of different genres and done well. I want you to pick me as your coach so you can teach me to sing like that."

Clarkson spoke next with tears in her eyes. "Just so you know, the most beautiful parts of your voice aren't even the biggest," she sincerely told Holmes. "The most beautiful are the intimate ones when you let that falsetto set in. It's so good."
But after Shelton and Clarkson confessed their admiration for Holmes, Hudson began addressing the young singer who suddenly began crying and said, "I've dreamed to sing with you." Hudson quickly joined Holmes on stage and the two sang a goosebump-inducing impromptu duet, leaving Levine with the final plea to get Holmes on his team.
Unfortunately, the clip cuts out right as the coaches and the audience find out who Holmes chooses as her coach. Will she pick Hudson who's obviously her idol? Or will she choose a coach with a contrasting style like Shelton? We'll find out during the season 15 premiere of "The Voice" on Sept. 24 on NBC.
