Olivia Henken the voice. Former karaoke singer, Olivia Henken, has found a new stage on TV singing competition, The Voice.
The Louisville KY native says she is just following her dreams..
“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.’”
