is a musical talent show that was started in the Netherlands by John de Mol, and today has its equivalents in many countries around the world, where it enjoys huge popularity among both viewers and participants. Poles have also created their own version of the program, but many domestic, aspiring artists try their hand outside the country’s borders. This group includes , who became famous in the 13th edition of “The Voice of Germany”.
A Polish woman in Germany’s “The Voice”. These judges were impressed by her cover of Whitney Houston’s hit
Justyna Chaberek is a 33-year-old vocalist from Poland, who has been living and working in Berlin for many years. As she emphasizes in many interviews, she has been involved in music since childhood. She studied at the Chubbuck Studio in Warsaw, and then worked with the Zbigniew Raszewski Theatre Institute. Then she began performing at the National Theatre in Strasbourg and the Berliner Ensemble. In 2023, she decided to apply for blind auditions for the German “The Voice”, and her performance of the song “How Will I Know” from the repertoire immediately impressed the audience and the coaches.
The only unmoved one was Ronan Keating. After the first few notes, Shirin turned her chair. A moment later, Giovanni Zarella followed her example, followed by Bill and Tom Kaulitz. “Whitney had many great hits and many singers tried them, but often the effect was mediocre. However, you have everything to sing her,” said the composer and guitarist. “You were confident, you knew exactly what you were doing and your version came out great,” he added, not hiding his delight. This started a fight between the judges.
“The Voice of Germany”. Chaberek chose Shirin’s team. How did her adventure with the program end?
Hearing Kaulitz’s compliments, Shirin decided to take action. “You took a big risk, but after the first sounds I was sure of my choice,” she said. At the same time, she emphasized that she usually waits until the last moment to make a decision, but this time it was not necessary, because Chaberek is a “complete artist.” “It is so rare for me, because I always wait a long time and I am extremely picky. But singing this hit was so easy for you and that ultimately led to me being the first to turn around,” she praised her. She also mentioned that they have a lot in common, because Shirin is of Lithuanian descent and, as she argued, loves Polish food. This was supposed to ensure a fruitful cooperation.
Ultimately, after a moment of reflection, Chaberek decided to continue her journey with “The Voice” on her team. Despite the enthusiasm, she was not able to enjoy her participation in the show for long. During the battles, she faced Kevin Derbas and Kim Schutzius. They performed the song “No Air” by Jordin Sparks together. According to the juror, it was the Pole who came off the worst against her competitors, which is why she was eliminated from the program. However, she still continues her adventure with music, regularly performing on stages in Berlin. She also fulfills herself as an actress, and her latest production is the tragicomedy “Treasuer” by Julia von Heinz, which premiered in February 2024. If you’d like, please vote in our poll below.
