During the 26th season of The Voice, Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé, along with coaches Gwen Stefani and Reba McEntire, were visibly moved by a heartfelt performance of Amor Eterno, a song by the legendary Mexican singer-songwriter Juan Gabriel. The emotional rendition came from 18-year-old Kiara Vega, who delivered the ballad in tribute to her recently passed great-grandfather.
The coaches, initially facing away in their signature red chairs, were captivated by the power and emotion in Kiara’s voice. Snoop Dogg and Bublé turned their chairs within seconds, expressing admiration for her delivery of the song. Michael Bublé, especially, was deeply touched, commenting, “You blew me away, Kiara!” His Argentinian wife has influenced his connection with Latin culture, adding a personal touch to his appreciation for the performance.

Snoop Dogg, who has long demonstrated a love for Latin music, danced along and praised the contestant’s energy. His ties to Latin culture include high school friendships with Jenni Rivera and her brother Lupillo, as well as collaborations with regional Mexican bands like Banda MS.
Amor Eterno was originally composed by Juan Gabriel and became a hit through Rocío Dúrcal’s stirring interpretation. The song’s themes of loss and reunion resonate with audiences worldwide, turning it into a timeless anthem. Kiara’s personal connection to the song made her performance even more poignant, adding to its emotional impact on the judges.
This memorable moment on The Voice demonstrates the lasting influence of Juan Gabriel’s music, as well as how Latin classics continue to inspire and connect across cultures.
