‘The Voice’: What Did You Think of Camila Cabello as a Coach? (POLL)
Spoiler Alert
The Voice is back for its 22nd season on NBC and the singing competition is welcoming a new coach to its panel.
Camila Cabello made her big debut, joining returning favorites Gwen Stefani, John Legend, and Blake Shelton. No stranger to The Voice, Cabello served as a Battle Advisor for Season 21, aiding John Legend in his fight to deliver a win to one of his contestants.
Now, Cabello is working in direct competition with her former ally, doing her best to sway singers to join her team this season. It was a strong start in the premiere episode as the first auditioning artist, Morgan Myles couldn’t help but be wooed by Cabello.

The 35-year-old performer from Nashville wowed with a rendition of “Hallelujah” that warranted a four-chair turn. Knowing that Stefani could serve as competition in her efforts to snag Morgan for herself, Cabello used her first Block, preventing her fellow coach from being able to secure the singer for her own team.
After her strong start, Legend warned that the coaches should be scared of Cabello, teasing that she could prove problematic in their own efforts to land competitors. As confident as ever, Shelton doesn’t seem perturbed by the new coach on the block, talking up a big game against Cabello.
Shelton eats his words though when Cabello managed to snag her second team member, 26-year-old Orlando Mendez from Miami, Florida. Despite his Cuban roots, Orlando’s penchant for the country genre put the ball in both Cabello and Shelton’s courts. Ultimately, the competitor’s hometown loyalty won out as he felt a stronger connection with Cabello who also originally hails from Miami.
As the two-hour episode came to a close, one final performer caught Cabello’s eye: Kate Kalvach. The 27-year-old from Oklahoma City opted to sing Kacey Musgraves‘ “Rainbow,” winning over Shelton and Stefani as well. If Cabello wants the performer for herself, she’ll have to pull out the strongest powers of persuasion to beat out her fellow coaches. If the premiere episode proves anything, she’s up to the task.
But do you agree? Let us know what you thought of Cabello’s turn as a coach in The Voice‘s Season 22 premiere with the poll, below, and sound off in the comment section.

Camila won’t be quiet. She ruins the show. I feel sorry for the other judges and performers. Totally obnoxious.

Do not enjoy the show as much because she talks over the other judges and tries to win the contestants during their performance by making all kinds of faces ect. She also talks nonstop over the others.

I like Camila as an artist but she is very annoying. She has a great personality but doesn’t stop talking; constantly interrupting the other judges.

They might as well change the name of the show from "The Voice" to "Camila's Voice" as that is all we'll be hearing all season!

I definitely don't like Camila Cabello. She is rude and never stops talking. Keeps putting Blake down and he is the only one that makes the show this year. Along with Team Legend. I never heard of her before. I hope this is her last time!!! Horrible!!!

I don't care for her. She is very stuck on herself and spends too much time running Blake Shelton into the ground. She comes across like she's so experienced compared to the other judges. I am not enjoying the show. I miss Kelly Clarkson and some of the other past coaches.

Don’t like this season, she talks way to much and is annoying. She doesn’t mesh with the other judges, and needs to not be so rude to Blake, not funny…getting old already and it’s the start of the season! I’m a loyal watcher but this season the chemistry is off, not enjoying watching as I usually do and it’s because of her.

Camila is annoying like a Pop Up AD that you can’t find the ‘X’ fast enough to get it off your screen! She talks over everybody, her jokes fall flat, she repeats the same thing over and over. The best thing is seeing the looks passed between Blake and Gwen when she talks lol Lucky for Camila the other judges are stepping in with commentary to make up for her obvious shortcomings and ‘impaired’ impulsive behavior. She’s not star quality for the show, next to John, Blake and Gwen it’s obvious. I’d love to see Faith Hill as a judge!

I perceive Camilla as talking too, too, much too. I perceive her trying to be the center of attention over the other coaches.
I perceive her as being annoying,rude, immature, and disrespectful towards Blake.
I do like the other judges and am watching the show but not because of her.

I really tried to like her I gave her several weeks to grow on me but her constant chatter and always trying to be the center of attention was too much to take I stopped watching and don't really miss it at all.

Why does the camera constantly pan to her? She always has to make a comment or noise. What is with those hand gestures? She talks over everyone to the point that I think even Gwen is sick of her. If I have to hear one more time how she was on a singing competition, I may throw up. I think she is a distraction and makes watching not as much fun as in previous seasons. I am thankful she will only be on this season. (Did anyone see her get booed by an entire stadium when she sang the national anthem at a soccer game?)

I thorouhly dislike her she is polarizing at times and some of her comments make no sens.Her chice in the battles tonight in the i wanna dance with somebodyseemed to be made out of spite all 3 of the other judges clearly thoughtthe singer she did not chose was the winner Her choice seemed to imply im a better judge than all 3 of you.Pluse the answer may lie in her telling her choice you looked soo beautiful when you walked on stage

SO true. She almost as awful as Miley was! (A season I ended up not watching!). I’m not as into this season because Camila is annoying and contestants are, overall, not very good.

She is constantly trying to bring attention back from the contestants to herself. I hope this is her only time as a coach.

Gwen only seems boring because Camila is creating ‘The Camila Show!’ The blinds were taped in Aug. Hopefully the producers see the ‘problem’ and fix it for the next rounds…

Go team Camilla, she has what it takes, joining the other judges who have been there for a while know they’re way around. Hopefully they’ll help her out, since she’s the new kid on the block. I’m a Camilla fan

Love Camilla. She’s full of fire and is quick with sharp comments. She’s sweet but definitely can be cutting if they say the wrong thing to her. Great choice for a judge… on another note I wasn’t totally blown away with the talent. They were good, and I respect them for being there, but I didn’t hear a stellar star yet. Well, I’ll be patient to hear more from the ones who were picked so far. I give them credit!

Big YES for having Camila Cabello join the Voice. She's a complete and incredibly talented artist: singer, songwriter, performer. And her background as a contestant on a similar show paired with her obvious empathy & charm make her the perfect coach and role model. The surprising part was how funny she is. She literally can be a stand-up comedian, made me laugh every episode so far. Tuning in this season & cheering #TeamCamila on!

Camila is the perfect addition to the Voice. Lovely personality and she meshes well with the other coaches. Impressed with not just her humour & positive vibes, but also how she is winning over the best contestants to her team so far. She's in for the win but also for the right reasons. She seems to genuinely want to know what each contestant wants to achieve and makes sure she can help them get there. Good luck to her this season!

As someone who watched all seasons of The Voice, I have to say this one is already shaping up to be my favorite. I really like the chemistry between the coaches and Camila Cabello is a perfect addition to the show. Charming, funny and very smart in how she offers her expertise to the contestants, I think she will do fantastic as a coach. Great talent for the contestants so far, as well. Perhaps too much on the country music side, but that's OK, I'm sure they will balance it out. Looking forward to this season, keep up the great work!

Camila Cabello is exactly what The Voice needed: a youthful, fun energy with positive vibes. She really fits right in with the other coaches this season and I couldn't stop smiling at the dynamic between all of them. it's perfect. But I am mostly impressed with how persuasive and wise she is with getting the best contestants on her team. This season will be exciting!
