The 2025 Emmys are going to be a little less country.

For the first time since 2012, The Voice didn’t earn a nomination — and yes, it happened the same year a country superstar sat in a red chair.

The long-running NBC singing competition was left off the ballot for Outstanding Reality Competition Program, breaking a 12-year streak that included four wins (2013, 2015, 2016, and 2017).

Season 27’s star-studded coaching panel included Michael Bublé, John Legend, Adam Levine, and Kelsea Ballerini — the latter of whom brought some serious country credibility to the spring cycle.

Instead, the 2025 nominees include RuPaul’s Drag Race, The Amazing Race, Top Chef, and Survivor — the last of which returned after missing the cut in 2024.

“I’ve got my game face on and I’m ready to WIN,” she added. “Just wait ’til y’all hear the incredible voices of Season 28!”
