Kaylee Shimizu prepares for her journey on ‘The Voice’ after chair-turning audition

Kaylee Shimizu, of Ewa Beach, made Hawaii proud after singing her rendition of "Golden Slumbers" during the blind auditions of NBC's "The Voice."

Her performance wowed the coaches as all four of them turned their chairs for her. Ultimately, the 17-year-old chose to be on John Legend's team.

Shimizu has been singing since the age of 6 and has enjoyed entertaining and performing in front of crowds since. 

Billy V got a chance to sit down and talk with Shimizu about what it was like auditioning for "The Voice" and what's next in her journey.
