Contestant Comes Out To Father Before Singing On The Voice!

So inspirational!

We are so proud of you, Tyler Robinson, for having the courage not only to share your beautiful voice with the nation, but also having the courage to express that you’re gay and proud to be, and to finally let your father know!

It might be a stretch from how you described him, but we HOPE that he has been accepting of this news since you dropped it on him. If anything, he has to be proud of you for your singing now that you landed a spot on Blake Shelton‘s team!!

Watch the video above to see Tyler be absolutely transparent about himself in the package before his audition! It’s so touching!!

And then, even though we’re getting tired of hearing the song, he comes out and does a great job with Train‘s Soul Sister and earns his place on Shelton’s team!

Good luck in the competition Tyler, and we hope your courage has and will continue to inspire others!

PS: The Voice has FOUR openly gay contestants! Wonderful!
