‘The Voice’ recap: Candace Cameron Bure’s daughter, 7 others eliminated after Voice Battles Week 1 [VIDEO]
The 17-year-old daughter of actress Candace Cameron Bure was among the eight hopefuls who were sent home after the first week of “The Voice” Battles.
Coach Adam Levine chose to keep Riley Elmore instead of Natasha Bure in the competition after the two belted a “Cry Me a River” duet. Elmore’s distinct voice won Levine’s approval despite Bure’s theatrical performance during the Voice Battle rounds.
Despite her daughter's elimination, the "A Bone to Pick: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery" movie star was a proud mother to Natasha.
Aside from Bure, Dan Shafer, Andrew DeMuro, Lane Mack, Ethan Tucker, Elia Esparza, Charity Bowden and Khaliya Kimberlie failed to get a steal from any of the other “The Voice” coaches.
On the other hand, Levine secured Jason Warrior and Dave Moisan to join Team Adam. Miley Cyrus took Lauren Diaz from Alicia Keys, who in turn got Ali Caldwell from Team Miley.
