Christiana Danielle is one of the three artists left on Alicia Keys’ team on The Voice, Season 14. For her Top 11 performance, Christiana will sing the Rihanna song “Umbrella.” According to John Seabrook, writer of The Song Machine: Inside the Hit Factory, the song “Umbrella” is what turned girl-next-door pop singer Rihanna into an international sex symbol. “Umbrella” is from Rihanna’s third studio album, Good Girl Gone Bad.

Think Christiana Danielle’s performance shows a sexier, edgier side of herself on The Voice? That’s what it will take to win because deeper into the competition there is a increasing premium on originality, emotion, performance and pure allure — that last part is sometimes simply described as sex appeal. Christiana’s song choice leaves her little choice but to deliver the goods. The Voice airs Mondays and Tuesdays at 8pm on NBC.
