The former New England wedding singer won her “Battle” on Monday night’s episode — and will now also get help from Sting.
There were likely quite a few New England couples pointing at the screen like the Leo meme in disbelief last night.
Walpole native/East Providence, R.I. resident Mary McAvoy — a former New England wedding band singer — was crowned the winner of a singing battle on “The Voice” by Snoop Dogg.
The University of New Hampshire alum now moves on to the next round.
McAvoy, 35, was drafted by Coach Dogg in an earlier episode of NBC’s Emmy-winning reality singing competition show.
In Monday night’s episode, called the Battles, teammates battled each other: one moves on, one goes home. The decision is up to the coach.
Coach Snoop Dogg paired McAvoy with Texan Michael Alexandersson to duet on “I Only Have Eyes for You” by The Flamingos.
Afterward, Coach Reba McEntire weighed in: “Mary, your vocals are incredible. Boy, you’ve got a heck of a range there, girl,” she said. “Snoop, if I had to choose one, I think I’d go with Mary, because of her vocal range.”
