Michael Bublé says Sofronio Vasquez is the next big thing, comparing him to Bruno Mars and Michael Jackson

Competing against fellow Team Michael members Jeremy Beloate and Kiara Vega, Vasquez went last in the trio of performers, and he used the moment wisely. Commanding the stage and the crowd, and even falling to his knees at the end of the performance, he earned a massive ovation, and praise from the Coaches, even as Beloate was also receiving accolades that suggested he might win.

But of course, the final word was Bublé’s, and as he was set to make his decisions, he went back to Hudson, and the way she’d reacted to hearing Vasquez sing in the rehearsal room.

“Sofronio, she threw her shoes at you,” Bublé said. “She literally was, like, knocked out. I was so proud of you. I love watching you grow.”

Though he made sure to tell Beloate to keep in touch if no one hit the Steal button (fortunately Snoop swooped in), in the end, Bublé chose Vasquez as the winner, sending the singer through to the Playoffs, for very good reason.
