Chris Sebastian is an ‘All-Star’ contestant, having joined The Voice Australia Season 1 and making it up to the semi-finals, with Seal as Coach. He got a four-chair turn during his audition for the current season, and picked Kelly as his coach over his brother Guy Sebastian.
Guy Sebastian, who’s the winner of the first Australian Idol in 2003, said it’s much tougher for Chris. He said he knew how nervous Chris was and he is so proud of him. He told a story wherein he and Chris were both in tears, with Chris saying he tried everything and yet he was still always compared with Guy. Chris became emotional as Guy spoke and Guy was on the verge of tears as well. Guy continued, “Look, I’ve just watched you grow and just, you know, stand on your own two feet during the show. Every time you’ve performed on the show, it’s like insanely good. And I mean that not just as a brother but as a coach, as a fan, and mate, I’m proud of you.”
