Chris Mann

Big, bold, loud and proud.

On tonight's (May 1) elimination and results episode, opera singer and Josh Groban heir apparent Chris Mann advanced for Team Christina Aguilera on 'The Voice.' The debonair gentleman edged out breathy vocalist Lindsey Pavao, who was an early favorite when the season launched this past winter. Mann will represent Xtina in next week's finals.

Team Christina Aguilera members Chris Mann and Monique Benabou were tasked with performing a duet of Celine Dion's 'The Power of Love' on 'The Voice' tonight (March 5.) We must say that Xtina chose wisely for her charges. Doin' Dion is always a challenge, since few (if any) singers have the same range as the Canadian diva. But these two?
