‘The Voice’ Winner Stuns Fans With Emotional Tribute to Reba McEntire!

Asher HaVon, who won season 25 of “The Voice,” has opened up about his relationship with country superstar Reba McIntyre to a hometown newspaper.

He told The Selma Times Journal that McIntyre “really cultivated me like a mother with a son and just really walked me through some great trials and really bringing me out on the other side as a mentor, as a coach and as a mother.”

According to the newspaper, his latest single “Thank You” commemorates his time on the show and with vocal coach Reba McIntyre.

HaVon explained the genesis of the new single during the interview.

“The single actually dropped on Thanksgiving Day,” HaVon said in an interview with The Selma Times-Journal, “which was important to me because the name of the song was, ‘Thank You’ and I felt it would just be great to drop it on Thanksgiving Day. The entire song was based on our relationship, of course being from Selma, not experiencing a big city and then going to the big city and meeting Reba.”

He told the newspaper that the show lasted for a year, adding, “In that year, Reba was all of that for me. All that I needed to be successful and to have the key values to just make it and so I took that and I used it and that’s where the song was birthed from.”

Asher HaVon Also Shared the Values That Reba McIntyre Taught Him

After his big win, Sofronio Vasquez got some fashion help from Snoop Dogg, and joined recent winners Asher HaVon and Huntley onstage.

In the interview, HaVon also outlined the values that McIntyre taught him during his time on the show.

The newspaper said the key value “was being authentic, allowing him to learn that he was enough alongside learning to affirm his gift while reminding him of what he has.”

“I have always had faith,” HaVon told the Times Journal. “I’ve always known that there was something bigger than myself that would cross or that I would come upon and of course, being in a place where I didn’t really see where I wanted to go. I just knew there was something inside of me that was bigger than where I was and like that, just kept my determination alive.”
