Gwen Stefani, 54, criticized by fans for her outfit on ‘The Voice’ Season 26 opening night

Season 26 of The Voice just kicked off, and it’s already making headlines! This season features an exciting new lineup of judges, including music legends Snoop Dogg, Michael Bublé, Reba McEntire, and Gwen Stefani. Fans of the show will remember Reba and Gwen from previous seasons—Reba even took home the win in Season 25—but Bublé and Snoop are fresh faces to the coaching panel this year.

To get the party started and introduce themselves in style, the four judges took the stage together for an electrifying performance of The Eagles’ classic hit, Heartache Tonight. And let’s just say, it was the perfect way to fire up the audience. Each judge added their own unique flair to the song, making it a performance to remember. The crowd was instantly hooked.

But while the music had fans buzzing, not everything went smoothly. Gwen Stefani’s outfit caused quite a stir on social media. But before we get into that, let’s talk about Snoop Dogg’s surprise!

Snoop, known as a rap icon, left viewers shocked with his smooth vocals during the performance. Fans were amazed by his singing talent, with one posting, “I didn’t know Snoop could sing?!!! I know him as a rapper.” Another viewer praised him, saying, “Snoop has a great voice. Very smooth—just like him.” One fan even went as far as to say, “I am SHOOKETH! They really got some excellent vocals out of Snoop.”

As Snoop basked in the praise, things weren’t as glowing for Gwen Stefani. Her fashion choice for the night didn’t sit well with everyone. Many viewers took to social media to express their disappointment, and the comments were harsh.

“Why can’t Gwen wear proper clothing? Is it a show for youngsters, or only adults? It’s disgusting,” wrote one critic. Another person said, “Gwen is too old to dress like a teenager. Time to have class like Reba—always dressed like a star with class.” Ouch.

It wasn’t all bad, though! Despite the fashion fuss, some viewers focused on the judges’ musical chemistry. One comment read, “Snoop and Reba are best singing together. Gwen needs to go and dress like a class lady. Michael is good.”

With a powerhouse lineup of judges from such different musical backgrounds, Season 26 of The Voice promises to be just as thrilling and unpredictable as ever. Between the standout performances and a few unexpected controversies, this season is already off to a dramatic start!
