And the teams are decided!!!

After 5 episodes and surely many more auditions than were put on the air, the coaches have finally filled their teams with 12 members.  The first to reach their quota was Adam, with Cee Lo and Blake close behind and Christina closing it out with a bang.  She ended the blind auditions by going on stage and singing with her final member.  If you were paying close attention you would notice that the coaches were wearing the same outfit in every episode.  This isn't because their wardrobe is weak, but because the blind auditions actually all happened at once and they broke it up to have it on the air.  In the first episode, airing right after the Super Bowl, there were 5 artists chosen and every show after that had an increase in artists until the final episode which dropped a little.

Team Adam started out a little slow, unexpected because he won last year,  but picked up and was the first coach to fill his team.  Adam's team consists of Angel Taylor, Chris Cauley, Karla Davis, Katrina Parker, Kim Yarbrough, Mathai, Nathan Parrett, Nicolle Galyon, Orlando Napier, Pip, Tony Lucca, and Whitney Myer.  Tony Lucca was the first member of Team Adam and is also somewhat of a celebrity since he was on the Mickey Mouse Club with Christina.  Some standouts are Mathai and Pip, but every member truly has an amazing voice.
Team Cee Lo also only had one member after the first show but picked up by the end and filled his team second.  His team members include Angie Johnson, Cheesa, Erin Martin, Jamar Rogers, James Massone, Jamie Lono, Juliet Simms, Justin Hopkins, Sarah Golden, The Shields Brothers, Tony Vincent and WADE.  Team Cee Lo has one of the two duets in the competition.
Team Blake was third to complete his team.  Although Blake is a country singer his team members are diverse in their styles but he does attract the country singers that come on the show also.  His team members are Adley Stump, ALyXBrian Fuente, Charlotte Sometimes, Erin Willet, Gwen Sebastian, Jermaine Paul, Jordan Rager, Jordis Unga, Lex Land, Naia Kete and RaeLynn.  Team Blake might seem like a bunch of misfits with incredible voices but Blake can coach and mold them into the stars that they are.
Team Christina, better known as Team Xtina, started out ahead but decided to get pickier as the auditions progressed, so she was the last coach to fill her team.  With members, Anthony Evans, Ashley De La Rosa, Chris Mann, Jesse Campbell, Jonathas, Geoff McBride, Lee Koch, Lindsey Pavao, Monique BenabouMoses Stone, Sera Hill and THE LiNE she is sure to have a good showing throughout the competition.
This Monday at 8/7c starts the battle rounds, where the coaches must pair up their team and then decide who sang the song better.  This kills the coaches because they really don't want to see any of their team members leave.
