Alisan Porter Rocks “The Voice” Vote!

Posted on May 25, 2016 | 6 Comments

Westport knew her as Ali Porter.

Movie-goers knew her as Curly Sue.

Now the nation knows Alisan Porter as the newest victor on “The Voice.”

She won!

She won!

The former Staples High School Players actor/singer stood tall last night. She won the NBC show’s 10th season in convincing fashion. Her heartfelt duet with Jennifer Nettles of “Unlove You” capped a run to the title that included an astonishing, judges-head-turning blind audition rendition of “Blue Bayou,” followed by fantastic covers of artists like Janis Joplin, Aerosmith and Demi Lovato.

Congratulations, Ali — er, Alisan. You’ve done us all proud.

And we can’t wait to hear you at your welcome-home concert here!

    When is the welcome-home concert? I may just have to travel back home to Westport for that!

    The 2017 Levitt benefit concert?

    I saw the very end last night. She had her family onstage with her. It was great.

    As soon as I heard the blind audition and Blue Bayou, I knew Alisan was going to win. She did a fabulous job.
