When the cameras stop rolling on The Voice, contestants still have plenty to do behind the scenes – although apparently, filming TikToks comes before rehearsals.

Country singer Joe Henley has emerged as one of the favorites to win Season 30, and his fellow contestants seem to be well aware of the competition they’re facing. In a hilarious video shared on social media, Joe and two other contestants joked about what it might be like to hear him preparing for his next performance.

The clip opens with Joe pretending to rehearse next week’s song by singing into a water bottle. It then cuts to Team Queen Latifah’s Lillie Kolich and Team Kelly Clarkson’s Anna McElroy packing their belongings, leaving their hotel and heading home after apparently hearing what they are up against.

“Us after hearing Joe Henley rehearse his next song on The Voice,” Lillie wrote over the video, with Anna also sharing in the joke. The spooky background music makes the entire scene even funnier.

“It’s been fun,” the caption reads.

 

Of course, the video was all in good fun. Although Joe has become a popular contestant among both viewers and the coaches, the outcome of Season 30 remains uncertain. The winner will finally be announced during The Voice season finale on December 14.

This week marked the show’s first-ever Cut Week, and the competition proved especially tough, with half of the remaining contestants eliminated. Joe, however, made it through comfortably with his rendition of Keith Whitley’s “Don’t Close Your Eyes,” earning a standing ovation from all four coaches.

His love for traditional country music has been evident from the beginning. Joe auditioned with Travis Tritt’s “Anymore” and has named George Strait and Don Williams among his musical influences. That shared appreciation for country music helped Riley Green convince Joe to join his team during the Blind Auditions.

For Green, the singer behind “Worst Way,” this is his first season sitting in the big red chair, and he already has a serious contender on his team. If Joe’s popularity continues to hold, he could have a strong shot at taking home the title.

Kelly Clarkson has also made her confidence in the young singer clear, admitting she would be “mind-blown” if the 19-year-old Alabama native failed to reach the finale.
