Tess Boyer Advances to Live Rounds on ‘The Voice’

Former St. Louis Rams Cheerleader Tess Boyer’s performance of Christina Perri’s haunting ballad “Human” has propelled her to the Top 12 and the live rounds on NBC’s ‘The Voice’!

The Edwardsville native earned rave reviews for her performance from her coach, Shakira. When she’s not singing on national television, Boyer teaches hip-hop at the Kurpinski Academy of Dance in Chesterfield. She also teaches a vocal course during the summer.

Festus native Patrick Thomson, also on Team Shakira, did not advance to the next round, despite a great performance of Ray LaMontagne’s “Trouble.”
