The Voice in fresh fix claims as it’s revealed contestants once supported huge US band on tour
THE Voice UK has been caught up in fix claims after one act’s famous past was revealed.
The hit ITV singing competition returned on Saturday night for its 13th series.
Emma Willis is back at the helm while coaches Sir Tom Jones and will.i.am resume their positions.
In a shake-up, LeAnn Rimes joins the panel, along with British boyband royalty Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones from McFly in a double chair for the first time.
As the show got underway viewers were introduced to boyband Mic Lowry.
The Liverpool-based group is made up of Delleile Ankrah, Kaine Ofoeme, Ben Sharples and Michael Welch.
Performing ‘Just a Friend 2002’ by Mario, the singing hunks wowed the coaches, sparking a bidding between them all.
However, as they ultimately chose Will.i.am, The Voice UK viewers have called out their already famous background.
Mic Lowry have already opened for the Backstreet Boys back in 2019 in Manchester as well as being a support act for Justin Bieber.
Posting on social media, one viewer said: “I saw@WeAreMicLowry when they supported Justin Bieber, they’re brilliant.”
A second wrote: “Erm, surely some of them judges have heard of #MicLowry seeing as they been around ages and been support acts elsewhere.”
“Very polished aren’t they? Almost as if they’ve been coached already,” said a third.
While a fourth commented: “Did I see these guys supporting McFly or Busted?”
