'The Voice' Has A Latin Accent

By Michael Lopez

It's been a good year for Latino reality singers. Just a few weeks after Scotty McCreery (who's part Puerto Rican) won American Idol, Javier Colon walked away with first place honors on The Voice. Colon, who's part Dominican and part Puerto Rican, seemed thrilled with the victory.

"What do U say as your first tweet after winning The Voice? U say Thank U! To my fans who voted their asses off 4 me. YOU made the difference," Javier posted last night.

And just listening to Colon belt out tunes like "Stitch By Stitch" and Fleetwood Mac's "Landslide," it's clear the fans made the right choice. Javier fought hard for his win though, narrowly beating The Voice’' other big contender, Dia Frampton.

In the end, Colon walked away with a $100,000 check and a new recording contract. All of the fellow judges seemed elated with Javier's win and over 10 million fans tuned in to NBC to watch the big finale.

When it was all over, the judges took the stage and promised to return for The Voice season two this winter. Coach Christina Aguilera seemed a bit emotional as the episode wound down, exclaiming to her fellow Voice stars,

"You’ve felt like the big brothers I’ve never had."
