Memphis’ Jeremy Beloate advances to the Season 26 finale

Memphis native Jeremy Beloate’s run on “The Voice” continues.

During Tuesday’s results show on the NBC singing competition, Beloate was revealed as one of the contestants voted into the finals by the public.

Beloate – a member of Snoop Dogg’s team – will be one of five contestants who will compete to determine a winner for the 26th season of ‘The Voice’. The other finalists are Sofronio Vasquez, Sydney Sterlace, Shye and Danny Joseph, who received the “Instant Save” on Tuesday.

The final two episodes of “The Voice” will air on NBCCon on December 9 and 10 (the shows will also stream on Peacock the next day).

After being named a finalist, Beloate received a big hug from Snoop Dogg, who was visibly moved by his performances.

On Monday, Beloate performed a rendition of the Tom Jones classic “I (Who Have Nothing),” which earned a standing ovation from all four judges.

Gwen Stefani praised him as a “rare” singer. “There’s nothing, no one like you. It’s almost like you’re too good to sing songs,” she said.

He was also paired with Team Bublé participant Sofronio Vasque on Mondayz for a performance of The Police’s ‘Every Breath You Take’. They were joined by the song’s original writer and singer, Sting, who played bass during the performance and served as the show’s Mega Mentor.

Beloate grew up in Bartlett and attended Ellendale Elementary and Appling Middle School.

He later moved to Germantown and attended Briarcrest, where he was part of the school’s One Voice singing group, which competed on Season 11 of the TV series “America’s Got Talent.”

Since then, Beloate has performed locally in productions at Theater Memphis and Playhouse on the Square, as well as appearing at the Mid-South Fair.

After college, Beloate moved to New York City, where he worked and recently landed a lead role in a new musical from “American Idol” alum and YouTube star Todrick Hall.
