TVType: Corey Kent White talks being in the top 8 of ‘The Voice’ and getting advice from CeeLo Green – “It’s funny because Blake came up to me afterward and said ‘It happens to all of us.’ Then he forgot his line when we sang ‘In the Midnight Hour’ as a group, and the way he handled it, I was more than impressed,” said White, who is from Bixby.

When that happened, I just carried on and pushed through it. – Tulsa World
