I few thoughts on @TheVoice... One of the best things about auditioning for #TheVoice is meeting an incredible group of insanely talented singers from all over the nation, who I now call family. My hope for you, is that when you watch the show, you see the human side. That you understand that these are not natural circumstances for singers (although the production team and band does an amazing job at trying to make us feel comfortable, and prepare us for our best), so try and remember there are human beings on your screen, with a lot of the same hopes, fears and dreams as you. And who for the most part, are simply trying to better their lives doing the one thing they have been given the talent to do.... sing. Now dont get me wrong. Im not making excuses for anyone. This is hands down, the highest concentration of sheer talent I have ever been a part of, or witnessed. Its no accident. There are cowboys, immigrants, gay, straight, light skinned, dark skinned, republicans, democrats, poor, wealthy, professionals, beginners, country, rock, urban, pop, EDM, jazz and everything in between. A brilliantly diverse casting of talent. And, my family. Tonights show is no different than the premier. Youre going to be thrilled. Insane singers, (if the sneak previews are any indication.) And incredible stories of normal folks, trying to live the dream. Im so fortunate to have been given this opportunity. Hundreds of thousands of people have auditioned for this show, and they invited me. Wow. (Still hard to grasp the scope.) Its just the beginning of a dream Ive had since I was a little boy, singing in church choir in Manteca, CA. What if? And now... its here. Its now. Its the beginning. Its the present. And the future. I dont know when my audition gets aired, but thank you for tuning in, liking, commenting, sharing, etc... And always being on #TeamRoem. Im grateful to have you.
