Shay said: “You remind me so much of Taylor Swift. You are unapologetically yourself just like Taylor is. I feel like we are watching you kind of come into your own.” This left John making a hard decision between the two. At the end, he chose Zoe over Jackie, which left fans upset and believe he made a mistake.

One person on X, formerly known as Twitter, wrote: “#TheVoice @johnlegend Big mistake.” Another person wrote: “ZOE OVER JACKIE??? BFFR #TheVoice.” A third person wrote: “JOHN PICKED HER OVER JACKIE???? The judges were really dumb this episode #TheVoice.”

Luckily for fans, Reba used her last steal on Jackie and will be seeing her during the playoffs. Reba was happy to push her button and ran to give the emotional contestant a hug. Reba told the viewers: “Jackie can sing country, Jackie can sing anything she wants, ’cause she’s that strong of a singer. I’m very excited to work with her during the playoffs.”

She told Jackie: “Continue to have fun. I love you.”

Viewers expressed their excitement. One person wrote: “It’s over for John! Reba stealing Jackie CONTROL IT! #TheVoice.” Another person wrote: “Thank you @reba for saving Jackie. She gave me goosebumps! #TheVoice.” A third person wrote: “#TeamLegend letting go of Jackie Romeo. No Bueno! but #TeamReba picks her up. Yay! What a rollercoaster. #TheVoice #VoiceKnockouts.”

This was not the first steal Reba used on this episode. She tried to use her last seat during the beginning of the episode on Kamalei Kawa’a who sang All of Me by John Legend. Kamalei had to choose between Reba or John.
