The Voice Kids viewers mock the show for trying – and failing – to pull the wool over our eyes

ITV viewers were not convinced

The Voice Kids 2021 viewers were not impressed by a segment featuring Danny Jones on the latest episode.

During the show on Monday night, Joseph, who was just 11-years-old, performed a song while he was playing the guitar.

His talent impressed judges Pixie Lott, Mel C and Danny Jones from McFly, who all turned round to try and win him over.

Joseph told Danny he was playing the guitar he had been gifted last year for Christmas.

As a result, Danny then replied by suggesting the two do a supposedly impromptu performance.

“Mine’s there, the yellow one, shall we jam?” he said.

Joseph replied: “Yeah, sure! Can we do a bit of Back in Black?”

It seems a bit of a coincidence that the band were ready for an ‘impromptu’ jam of a random song picked by the kid.

The pair stood on stage with their guitars and performed a snippet of the song perfectly.

It sparked viewers to rush to social media to question whether the pair had rehearsed before the show.

One wrote: “I mean, I’m not saying that #TheVoiceKids is set up, but it seems a bit of a coincidence that the band were ready for an ‘impromptu’ jam of a random song picked by the kid.”

“Very well-rehearsed #TheVoiceKids,” with a thinking emoji alongside it said another.
