‘The Voice’ competitor Savanna Chestnut reflects on her gigs in Kansas bars, Blake Shelton and ’80s pop music – Kansan Savanna Chestnut was 18 when she packed her bags and moved to Nashville to pursue her dream of becoming a country music star. Chestnut stayed about three years before returning home, she told The Topeka Capital-Journal in a Zoom interview Monday. “I realized I’m too much of a small-town kid to enjoy the big city,” she said. But Chestnut has since learned she doesn’t need to live in Music City to have a chance to make it big. Chestnut, who tried out for “The Voice” unsuccessfully when she was 17 years old, said she hadn’t thought her voice was good enough to get her onto the show. “I always thought of myself as more of a strong songwriter but maybe not as strong as a singer,” she said. “So this has been such a cool, humbling experience all around and I’m just honored to be part of the show.” – Read more at CJOnline

David Cook Won’t Reveal Who Is He Rooting for on ‘American Idol’ for a Hilarious Reason (Exclusive) – “I’ve tuned in kind of peripherally and I’ve seen a couple of voices that I really like. I’m not going to say who only because anytime I name who I like, they don’t make it, so I won’t curse them in that way,” Cook laughed as he revealed in our series, PopCulture @Home ahead of the release of his third EP, The Looking Glass. “But I think time will tell. As always, my opinion of it is if they can make the focus the contestants throughout the season, then I think whoever comes out on the other side of it’s got a fighting chance, but we’ll see.” – Read more at PopCulture.com
