Kicking the evening off was Team Kelly’s Hailey Mia who revisited Olivia Rodrigo‘s library, this time tackling “Deja Vu” for her first performance of the evening. She was followed up by Team Blake’s Paris Winningham who delivered his own rendition of Billy Paul’s “Me and Mrs. Jones.”
Team Kelly’s other team members, Girl Named Tom tapped into their folksy side for a powerfully done version of Fleetwood Mac’s “The Chain.” Following the sibling trio was Jershika Maple, repping Team Legend and singing Mary J. Blige‘s “I’m Goin’ Down.”
In a brief break from the Top 5, Blake partook in some silly curling shenanigans with the U.S. Winter Olympic competitors and Kelly serenaded viewers with her holiday tune “Christmas Isn’t Cancelled (Just You).” Picking the progress back up was Team Blake’s Wendy Moten who took on Whitney Houston’s “How Will I Know” for her first performance of the night.

Rounding out the rest of the performances were Girl Named Tom with The Foundations’ “Baby Now That I’ve Found You,” Jershika Maple with Adele‘s “Rolling in the Deep,” and Wendy Moten with “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” from The Wizard of Oz.
