-Yes, ladies.
-We did that.

-Whoo! -Got 'em hyped in here!
-You almost wore that outfit today.
-I did. I did wear it.
And I changed it when I saw what she had on.
You two scared me a little bit up there singing.
That was like, "Wow."
-They'll bust the windows out your car.
-I hope I never get -- cross ways with
either one of these two.
You know, Dia, for me, I think you had
the overall more consistent performance.
But Valarie has this explosive thing about her voice
and it's so exciting and it's just so much fun.
-Okay. -I didn't know that song.
That song is really sick. That was a great choice.
-Jazmine Sullivan. My adviser this season.
-It was sassy. It was explosive.
Valarie, technically, you have more of a mastery of your voice.
Your runs were so clean.
And, Dia, your face and your movement was conveying,
I feel like, the emotion of the song.
Like, you're exciting to watch.
I would probably pick Dia.
[ Applause ]
-I think vocally you guys are both equally as talented,
but at the same time, Valarie, you really know your voice.
Like, it's very comfortable for you.
We really know who you are as a singer.
The problem was that when Dia came out, she had this attitude
and she was looking at the audience like,
"I'm about ready to show you who I am."
You're a really budding, like, entertainer.
I would say that Dia kind of stole my heart
in this performance. -Hm.
-Thank you, Coaches.
John, you got the final word,
but give us some thoughts on that Battle.
-We talked a lot about being in character for this song,
and I felt like, Dia, you really embraced that advice so well.
Not only did you come out with this dope outfit
looking like a superstar,
but you also carried yourself with the demeanor of a star.
Valarie, you can just flat-out sing.
-Thank you. -And your voice has so much
electricity and power to it.
So I have to figure out what's the right way to go.
And I'm stalling. [ Laughs ]
-I know. [ Laughs ]
-John, who is the winner of this Battle?
♪♪
-Ugh!
♪♪
The winner of this Battle
is Valarie.
-Valarie, congratulations!
You're moving on to the knockouts on Team Legend!
-Dia and Valarie. I had to make a tough decision.
I do believe that Dia was a little bit better
at being in character.
You did so good. You're such a great singer.
-Thank you, thank you. -We're just gonna keep going.
Alright? -Yes. Thank you.
-But I feel like this is "The Voice,"
and I still have to honor the better vocalist
when I think about who's gonna advance on my team.
-Thank y'all! Thank y'all!
-And I feel like Valarie's consistently been
a better vocalist than Dia.
-Dia, anything you want to say to your coach?
-Definitely. It's an honor.
This is not a loss. This is only the beginning.
-Yeah. -And you will see
more of Dia Malai. Thank you.
-You're special!
-Give it up for Dia Malai, everybody!
-The Battle round are so exciting.
