MANILA, Philippines — Filipino singer Jej Vinson has advanced to the Top 13 of “The Voice US.”

“@Jejvinson is headed into the #VoiceTop13! Who else is excited?!” The Voice wrote in its official Twitter account Wednesday.

Eight contestants moved forward from America’s vote and while the other four advanced via a “save” from each coach.

Vinson made the Top 13 after his coach Kelly Clarkson used her “save” and chose him over the other members of her team.

Before entering the Top 13, the Filipino singer performed his rendition of Khalid’s “Love Lies.”

Apart from Vinson, Red Stokes from Clark’s team also entered the Top 13. Other contestants who made the cut were LB Krew and Mari Team Adam Levine; Gyth Rigdon, Carter Lloyd Horne, Dexter Roberts, Andrew Sevener and Oliv Blu from Team Blake Shelton; and Shawn Sounds, Maelyn Jarmon and Celia Babini from Team John Legend. /cbb
