Following an intense showdown on The Voice Australia in 2025, Alyssa Delpopolo was crowned the winner.
Last year’s grand finale aired on November 2, with Alyssa representing Kate Miller-Heidke, Cassie Henderson performing on behalf of Melanie C, Cle Morgan for Ronan Keating, and Bella Parnell representing Richard Marx.
“It doesn’t feel real at all,” Alyssa said following her win.
Alyssa, who was just 19 years old at the time, absolutely smashed her rendition of Celine Dion’s It’s All Coming Back to Me Now. As the winner, she received a cash prize of $100,000 and an all-inclusive recording development package which includes production, recording, mixing, mastering and access to A&R and label services.
“I’ve had the honour of working with Celine, and I think even Celine would sit here and go ‘wow’,” Richard said.
Ecstatic by the win, Coach Kate shared: “Australia loves you as much as I do, and I’m so thrilled. We did it!”
Alyssa’s Voice journey certainly wasn’t like any other we’ve seen before – she was quite literally plucked from the crowd. She began singing from the crowd during a break, when she was invited to participate in the Blind Auditions from Kate and Ronan.
Every single judge turned their chairs, but Ronan quickly blocked them to steal Alyssa away.
But after the Battle Rounds, Alyssa was eliminated. That was until Kate swooped her up, and coached her to victory!
What has Alyssa done since winning The Voice in 2025?
Almost a year after winning The Voice, Alyssa continues to pursue a career in music. On June 19, 2026, she released a single titled My Forever Person. Some of her previous singles include You Made Me Crazy, and Cruel.
