She Didn’t Let Anyone Down
Ferguson sang “Don’t Let Me Down” by The Chainsmokers featuring Daya as her Blind Audition. She hit the high notes perfectly and had a near-flawless performance. Ferguson’s rendition made all the judges (except Adam Levine) turn around, though, Levine admitted that he was dumb not to have turned his chair. Ferguson chose pop diva Alicia Keys as her coach, and the two New Yorkers were overjoyed with the decision.

Alicia Keys had a tough time deciding who to pick as the winner, but in the end, she chose Ferguson. But things did not end badly for Turner at all, as both Adam Levine and Gwen Stefani fought to steal her for themselves!
