"THE VOICE"

"THE BATTLES PREMIERE"

10/14/2013 (08:00PM - 10:01PM) (Monday) : THE BATTLES BEGIN - THE COACHES ENLIST FELLOW ARTISTS CHER, ED SHEERAN, MIGUEL AND RYAN TEDDER TO PREPARE THEIR ARTISTS FOR BATTLE - The "battle rounds" begin and the coaches enlist the help of the music industry's top recording artists to offer their knowledge and skills as advisers. Adam Levine teams up with Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic, Blake Shelton with Cher, CeeLo Green with Miguel and Christina Aguilera with Ed Sheeran. In this phase, the coaches pit two of their own team members against each other in a dueling duet. After the vocal face-off, each coach must choose which artist from their team is the strongest, and has the option of stealing losing artists from an opposing coach. Each coach has two steals during the battle rounds where their artists will proceed to the new knockout rounds. Carson Daly ("Last Call with Carson Daly") hosts.
