The Voice: Every Winner of Every Season — and What They’ve Done Since

In its going-on-25 seasons, The Voice may not have ever churned out a superstar on par with American Idol alumni like Kelly Clarkson or Jennifer Hudson (both of whom eventually became, of all things, Voice coaches). The show may also not have ever discovered an A-lister whose successes match those of Idol grads Carrie Underwood or Adam Lambert. But NBC’s enduring sing-off has nonetheless shone a spotlight on a plethora of memorable vocalists, many of whom have continued on to successful, if not quite so widely celebrated, recording careers.

So as we look forward to new coaches Dan + Shay joining in returnees John Legend, Reba McEntire and Chance the Rapper’s game of musical chairs in the Season 25 premiere (Monday, Feb. 26 at 8/7c), we’re also looking back. Way back, as a matter of fact: We’re reviewing all 24-and-counting winners in the series’ history and taking a peek at their post-show accomplishments. Among the Who’s Who of contestants who caught the coaches’ ears and turned their iconic swivel chairs, you’ll find a Grammy nominee, an author and a fan favorite who, years later, still hasn’t put out their first original single. (And yes, the wait is killing us.)
