Eight are left in the semifinals of ‘The Voice’! They each perform TWICE during the May 13 episode, with hopes of getting enough votes to earn a spot in next week’s finale.

The first artist to hit the stage during the May 13 episode of The Voice is Andrew Sevenerwho sings Cody Johnson’s version of “Long Haired Country Boy.” The old-school country song is right in Andrew’s wheelhouse, and he gets a standing ovation from his coach, Blake Shelton, as well as Kelly Clarkson. Andrew is praised for his ability to ‘own’ the stage, and Blake and Adam Levine say that it’s the 22-year-old’s best performance of the season.

Up next is the first Beatles duet: Kim Cherry (team Blake) and Shawn Sounds (team John Legend) team up to perform “Eleanor Rigby.” There’s major emotion and talent in the performance, and although it’s quite dark, they definitely bring all the feels. Next, Gyth Rigdon takes the stage to sing “God Bless The U.S.A,” and it’s the perfect feel-good song for this moment in the competition.

Next, Kim Cherry, from team Blake, performs “Together Again” by Janet Jackson. Kim was almost eliminated last week and only made it through thanks to the Instant Save, so there’s a lot riding on this performance and she definitely delivers. Kim is followed by another epic duet — this time, it’s Maelyn Jarmon, from John’s team, and Rod Stokes, from Kelly’s team, who collaborate on a Beatles classic. The performance is absolutely epic and leaves the crowd going wild.

Another team Blake artist, Carter Lloyd Horne, takes the stage next to sing “Take Me To Church.” It’s a song that’s right in his wheelhouse, and he delivers a powerful vocal that definitely resonates with the crowd. However, Kelly admits that the performance is slightly pitchy and not the best Carter has ever done.

Kelly’s last remaining artist in the competition, Rod Stokes, is up next with his solo performance. He sings an amazing rendition of “Go Rest High On That Mountain” by Vince Gill. It’s a country classic that fits the bill of the artist Rod wants to be, so it’s the perfect song for him to pull out during this all-important semifinal round.

Next, two of Blake’s semifinalists, Gyth and Dexter Roberts, team up for their Beatles duet. It’s the perfect pairing, and the guys put a country twist on a classic hit by the band. Maelyn returns to the stage next for her solo performance of “Stay” by Rihanna. She has the entire crowd captivated from the very first note and delivers a stunning vocal to prove she definitely deserves a spot in next week’s finale.

Up next is the final Beatles duet, and it’s another pairing of team Blake artists — Carter and Andrew. They perform an epic rendition of “Help,” and they clearly have a great time doing it. Even though it’s a serious song, the guys bring some fun to the stage and wow the crowd.

Dexter is up next, and he sounds amazing on his rendition of 3 Doors Down’s “Here Without You.” His coach, Blake, assures him that he has what it takes to be a country artist, and Dexter definitely proves it with this performance. To close out the night, Shawn performs “A Song For You” by Donny Hathaway/Leon Russell. It’s an extremely powerful vocal, and Shawn totally kills it. What a way to end the night!

Now, America will vote for their favorites, and the top three will automatically earn a spot in the finale. The final spot will be claimed by whoever wins the Instant Save — and all will be revealed during tomorrow’s episode!

NFL's Montae Nicholson Criminal Case Dropped Despite Knockout Video

Breaking News

Washington Redskins safety Montae Nicholson is off the hook in his assault case -- prosecutors have dropped the criminal charges against him ... despite video showing the NFL player KOing a guy. 

As we previously reported, Nicholson was arrested in Virginia back in December for assault and battery, and public drunkenness after video showed the 23-year-old beating the hell out of a guy in the middle of the street around 2 AM. 

You can see Nicholson throw a solid left which connects -- and the other man goes limp as he collapses to the ground. 

But Tuesday, Nicholson appeared in court -- where prosecutors dropped the assault charge, according to court records. 

Nicholson's attorney told the Washington Post prosecutors had "insufficient evidence."

Unclear why they would reach that conclusion with the evidence at hand -- it's possible he reached a settlement with the victim, who then refused to cooperate with prosecutors. We just don't know yet. 

23-year-old Montae -- 6'2", 215 lbs -- is a solid player for the Redskins who played in every game during the 2018 season.

Michelle Obama appeared to subtly diss Donald Trump by claiming that just because someone had a good TV show, it doesn’t mean they’d make a great president.

Michelle Obama has the best way of throwing such subtle shade without actually throwing anyone under the bus by name. The former first lady appeared at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, on May 11 for a 90 minute Q&A about her memoir Becoming. Host Gayle King asked Michelle if she would consider running for president, like many people thought the CBS This Morning host’s BFF Oprah Winfrey would do after a rousing 2018 Golden Globes speech that sounded incredibly presidential. Michelle said that just because someone has had a TV show, it doesn’t qualify them for the Oval Office. While she seemed to be talking about Oprah, many took it as a jab at President Donald Trump, who presided over NBC’s The Apprentice as seen in video here from the event

Michelle, 55, has said many times over that she has absolutely no desire to return to the White House. She told Gayle that politics needs to really be in someone’s blood to want to be POTUS, and for Oprah as well as herself, that’s not the case. “Here’s the thing: People have to want to be in politics,” she said. “It has to be their passion. It’s not just because y’all like them. Like Oprah, she’s nice, she’s got a great TV show, so she should be president. That’s not how it works. We did that.” which got a big laugh out of the audience who seemed to think she was dissing Trump and The Apprentice.

“Being president is hard and it’s dangerous because there are no easy answers to any of this stuff,” she explained. “It requires intelligence and it requires understanding history,” she continued and after mentioning intelligence, the audience again erupted in noticeable laughter. It was so much that Michelle has to tell everyone “Look look look, don’t turn this into shade.”

She continued, “You’ve got to have the temperament and patience. As a mother what you do not understand, if you’re asking me to run, is the toll it takes on the people around the president. It is a heavy ask. My children are graceful, wonderful, and they are champions to have made it through eight years alive on the other end of this. I am grateful.”

Remy Ma & Safaree Sued Over Benefit Concert Their Greedy A$$e$ Made Us Cancel!!!

EXCLUSIVE

Remy Ma and Safaree derailed a benefit concert after allegedly breaking 2 simple rules -- but it's enough to get 'em sued.

The Circle Foundation -- which mentors Chicago-area youths -- is suing the rappers, saying they signed to perform at a fundraising concert back on April 21, 2018, at the Wintrust Arena in Chicago. According to docs, obtained by TMZ, the Foundation was forced to cancel the show after the rappers breached their contracts.

The Foundation claims their contracts specifically stated Remy and Safaree could NOT perform within 60 miles of the arena for 30 days before the event. It's called a "performance exclusivity" clause, and it's a common practice promoters use to make sure their concerts remain in hot demand. 

In the suit, the Foundation says the rappers agreed and signed the deal ... with Remy getting a $35k deposit payment and Safaree getting $7,250.

The problem, according to the docs, is Remy performed on April 8 at the Black Women's Expo in Chicago -- and Safaree played the Rockin' Horse Saloon & Grill on April 14 in a Chicago suburb.

As a result, The Circle Foundation says it asked Remy and Safaree to return the dough but got the cold shoulder. It's now suing to get its money back, plus damages.

Remy's attorney Eric Sanders tells us she is "unaware of any purported legal action filed but, if such action is initiated she will respond accordingly."

It’s going to shift. But there’s beauty in how it works in episodes.”

Anthony Weiner All the Way Free Next Week ... Leaving Halfway House

T-minus 4 days until Anthony Weiner is back on these streets.

The disgraced ex-Congressman will finally complete his stay at a halfway house on May 14, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. As we first reported back in February ... Weiner got out of prison, but was not yet a free man. He was transferred to a residential re-entry center in NYC.

Once he's officially out, he'll be under supervised release for 3 years and he'll have to submit to DNA testing with his probation officer. He also must register as a sex offender and pay a $10k fine.

As we've reported ... Weiner started serving his 21-month prison sentence in November 2017 after pleading guilty to sexting with a 15-year-old girl in North Carolina. He was initially supposed to get out in August 2019, but good behavior slashed his sentence 3 months to May 14.

As you know by now ... Weiner resigned from Congress after his sexting scandal in 2011. His NYC mayoral run fell short in 2013 after it was uncovered he was sexting Sydney Leathers under the infamous alias, "Carlos Danger."

The convicted sex offender saw his marriage fall apart after his latest sexting scandal. Huma Abedin filed for divorce just hours after Weiner struck a plea deal for sexting the teenage girl.
