Former contestant Chris Weaver returned to the season finale of “The Voice” as his drag queen persona Nedra Belle to perform “Bang Bang” along with Jessie J.
Weaver, who was picked by Jennifer Hudson for her team, was eliminated during the playoff rounds. He returned as Nedra Belle alongside fellow drag queens Jan Sport, Lagoona Bloo and Rosé. The performance started off with a black and white video playing “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)” by Nancy Sinatra.
The curtain drops to reveal Weaver and the drag queen trio who launch into a rendition of “Bang Bang” with a jailhouse background. At the end, Jessie J joins them on stage to close out the song.
