Changing The Voice: The Quick Fix That Needs to Be Made Ahead of Season 28
As much as anyone, I know that we don't really want The Voice to change a whole lot. We nom nom on NBC's long-running sing-off like the comfort food that it is, over and over again picking our favorite contestants, only to as often as not watch them get eliminated before the winner is revealed. We're used to it, and, in a twisty way, we like being used to it. In uncertain times, it is a reassuring constant. But… And you bet there's a 'but.' That doesn't mean that there isn't room for improvement. In Season 27, it hit me like a ton of bricks when country star Kelsea Ballerini joined the coaching panel. What the show needs is more personalities like hers. She's not only sharp and fun, she gives a s—t.

That's not to say that veteran coaches Adam Levine and John Legend don't care, or that Michael Bublé in his second go-round doesn't. It just feels as if their enthusiasm has waned, whereas Ballerini… she's a bottle rocket in a red swivel chair. If she's faking her investment, she's the freakin' Meryl Streep of reality competitions. I 100-percent buy what she's selling. So who should join her on the coaching panel in Season 28 (assuming, and here's hoping, she returns)? Glad you asked. I actually have a few ideas about that. Keep scrolling and see if you agree with my picks. Obviously, pop's It girl would be the 'get' of the millennium for the show. Not only is she hugely popular, she's crazy charismatic, witty as hell and as down-to-earth as the pavement. And her addition to the coaching panel isn't entirely out of the question, considering that she's already appeared on the show as an adviser (to Usher in Season 4) and Mega Mentor (in Seasons 7 and 17). The rapper/singer on The Voice? To quote one of his own hits, that's what I want. The Grammy winner is funny and real, and his origin story has a lot more in common with that of most contestants than, say, Levine's. (His father founded the retail chain M.) Plus, Lil Nas X's presence on the panel might do what Chance the Rapper and Snoop Dogg's didn't, and give song selections a new flavor. It took the then-future Glinda a minute to get her bearings as a coach in Season 21. But once she relaxed into her role, I never wanted her to leave. She was adorable — or as Reba McEntire would put it, cute as a button. On top of that, the 'Dangerous Woman' singer's laser focus on technical excellence made her not just an exceedingly appealing red-chair newbie, one whose input was exceedingly valuable. My one concern? Did she care too much? Hilarious, irreverent and likely the smartest person in the room, no matter how massive the arena, the Grammy winner would make us, ahem, rush to the couch to watch him court and then coach wannabe hims on The Voice. And as far as I've seen, the 'One of Our Girls' singer is incapable of phoning it in. You could put a cell in his hand, and he still couldn't. He can't help but be present. With her star not only on the rise but meteorically on the rise, she's probably as long a shot to join The Voice as Grande is to return to it. But we'd be remiss if we didn't suggest her as an ideal coach, especially after bearing witness to the warmth, class and wisdom that she brought to bear in Season 27 as buddy Bublé's Battles adviser. Even if the show couldn't keep her for long, damn, it'd be great if it could have her at all!

'The Residence' Actress Eliza Coupe Slams 'Haters' Who Criticized Her Appearance Following Rare Red Carpet Outing
Eliza Coupe is clearing speculations around her latest red carpet appearance. On Wednesday, March 19, the actress, 43, stepped out for a rare public outing for the premiere of her new show, The Residence. Following the Los Angeles event, the Scrubs alum sparked concern over her physical appearance, which many deemed "unrecognizable." She wore a skin-baring chainmail dress revealing her tattoos, a shawl around her arms and thigh-high boots. Shortly after, Coupe took to Instagram to address the criticism. In a post shared last week, she featured multiple selfies taken over the "past three weeks" and captioned them with empowering hashtags, including "This is what I really look like," "I choose love" and "Haters can hate." She also added, "Remember who you are." Her comments section was filled with positivity. "Gorgeous inside and out! Talent, beauty, and you're freaking hilarious! Keep doing you boo," one fan wrote.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Eliza Coupe (@elizacoupe) ! "Here's the thing... I've been an actor my entire life. Professionally for 20 years," she wrote. "That has been my identity for so long. And what I have learned in my journey through this human that there is no such thing as 'identity.' Who I am is not one thing. Being an actor is one thing I do and I enjoy it and I'm good at it. I am also many many other things. I wrote a book because I am also a writer." The project will focus on growth, personal development and inner healing. Prolonging the book's release, Coupe thanked her fans for their "patience as I navigate this new magical journey."

Eliza Coupe Just Addressed The Online Trolls Who Criticized Her Appearance, And Her Response Is Perfect
This is Eliza Coupe. You might know her from her role as Jane Kerkovich-Williams in Happy Endings. Perhaps you remember her as Denise "Jo" Mahoney in Scrubs. If not, you definitely remember her from her role as gun-toting badass Tiger from the Hulu series Future Man. Well, Eliza is also in the new Shondaland Netflix miniseries The Residence, starring Uzo Aduba. Eliza portrays Senator Margery Bay Bix, a loud, highly opinionated political official who might be based slightly on a real-life person with the same first name. On March 19, Eliza attended the world premiere of The Residence in Los Angeles. People have apparently commented on her appearance, which prompted Eliza to fire back with the same tenacity and wit as the characters she portrays on TV. On March 22, Eliza took to Instagram to share a clip from Future Man of Tiger pointing a gun at the camera alongside the caption, "My response to all the bad press and wildly altered photos of me floating around the internet. You are all so consistently ridiculous. Thank you for making me laugh. Xoxo." Hulu The Pivoting actor followed up with an Instagram montage with the caption, "Pictures from my camera roll from the past three weeks." If it wasn't clear she was continuing to shut down the haters, Eliza paired the montage with the hashtags "#thisishwhatireallylooklike 🤷🏼♀️#truth #haterscanhate #ichooselove #rememberwhoyouare #transmute #elevate #rise #and #shine #love." Haters can hate, but I watched The Residence, and Eliza's great. I hope she doesn't mind if I borrow some of those hashtags for my next photo dump because she also has a way with words.
