Who got eliminated from The Voice UK 2019?

Sadly, the search for the next singing sensation (or at least the next winner of The Voice UK) doesn’t come without a few casualties. Throughout the Battle Rounds, Knockouts and live shows the coaches – Jennifer Hudson, Olly Murs, Sir Tom Jones and will.i.am – must whittle down their teams of 10 hopeful acts in the build-up to this year’s final.

So, which unlucky performers have been eliminated from the contest so far?

Who are the latest acts to be eliminated from The Voice UK 2019?

Mike Platt

Age: 32
From: South Wales
Occupation: Fire Fighter

Mike Platt was the first blind audition of the series, and set the bar high for the other contestants after all four coaches spun around to see the fireman in action.

But Mike, from small Welsh town Aberdare, said he would be “disowned” if he didn’t pick the legend that is Tom Jones, seeing him join the 78-year-old’s team.

However, while he was first act to join a team this year, he was also the first act to be booted out the competition at the Battle Rounds, losing his bout with Cedric Neal.

Brieya May

Age: 16
From: North Devon
Occupation: Student

Cheeky Brieya May nearly caused all-out war between Olly Murs and will.i.am, with the pair deciding to do press-ups to see who could entice the teenager from North Devon on to their team.

But Brieya already had her eye on Black Eyed Peas producer Will – much to Olly’s disappointment. The decision could have cost Brieya dearly, with Olly not opting to steal the singer after she lost her Battle Round to Ilianna.

Kieron Smith

Age: 26

From: Liverpool

The scouse circuit designer engineer and electric pylon enthusiast (“they’re a piece of art!”) fought his stage nerves to pull out a delicate cover of Drops of Jupiter by Train. After hitting a spectacular high note, JHUD turned her chair, welcoming Kieron to her team.

Unfortunately, his time on Jennifer’s side didn’t last long, with Kieron losing his Battle Round to Remember Sunday.

Nyema Kalfon

Age: 22

From: Winchester

The Flatpack

From: Brighton

A fan of old-style rat-pack songs, builders and painters Duncan, Nathan and Jamie impressed Olly Murs with their soulful voices, with Olly saying he himself was a fan of that style of music.

“And I love the name The Flatpack,” he joked. Not enough to keep them in the competition in the Battle Rounds, however, with the group losing their singing skirmish with Georgia Bray.
