“The Voice was the perfect opportunity for me,” Olivia said. “The competition is based purely on your talent and your voice instead of your appearance, and I thought it was the perfect fit.”
Henken is a firm believer that everything happens for a reason,
“I knew I had to do what I do and hoped that it was enough for one of the judges to turn around. Once Christina’s chair turned, I pretty much blacked out. I don’t remember much after that,” Olivia laughingly said. “It pretty much solidified that I was on the show, and it took the nerves away, and I could have fun and show everyone my stage presence.”
Olivia did enough to turn the judges chairs around impressing one in particular,
“I call Christina ‘the voice,’ I think she is amazing,” Olivia said. “Going into the competition as a country music singer, I obviously wanted Blake to be my coach, but now after it is all said and done I am glad that everything happened the way that it did. I couldn’t have picked a more perfect coach for myself.”
Olivia finds it amazing Aguilera found something in her voice she liked,
“It’s all so surreal. I found out I had a fan page and I was like, ‘Wow, really?’” Olivia said. “I have all of these people tweeting me and they get so excited when I follow them back. I’m just like, ‘Who am I? Why are you so excited that I’m following you, I’m just Olivia.’”
