Grace (18) wins ‘The voice of Flanders’

Grace, with her 18 the youngest finalist, is ‘The Voice of Flanders 2021′. The Sint-Niklase with Congolese roots defeated rocker Simon, also from Team Natalia, and multi-talented Robin from Koen Wauters’ team in the live closing show on Friday evening. Earlier that evening, Joke and Nanou had already lost weight.

Grace might already be the benjamin of the final, but it was not noticeable in her stage presence. With a flawlessly sung and energetically performed version of On the floor by Jennifer Lopez ft. Pitbull deservedly earned them a place in the top-3. “Grace is like my mother’s balls in tomato sauce: always good,” said Niels Destadsbader, who was forced to follow the final at home due to a corona infection. Her coach, Natalia, was amazed at “so much natural. And you keep getting better. We chose this song because it really has to pop during the final. And that has clearly happened. You were born for a life as an artist.”

And then had to All The same by Stromae, the song she had already performed in the first live show. With her idiosyncratic version, perfectly sung and irresistibly danced, she conquered the hearts of the VTM viewers and gave Team Natalia the victory for the first time. Grace can now call herself ‘The Voice of Flanders’ for a year, gets a record contract with Universal and can take home 25,000 euros.
