The Voice : La plus belle voix (lit. 'The most beautiful voice') is a reality singing competition onTF1. It is France's version ofThe Voice format created byJohn de Mol. The first episode aired on 25 February 2012. It is the second time that the format has been produced in French after the Belgian versionThe Voice Belgique.

One of the important premises of the show is the quality of the singing talent. Four coaches, themselves popular performing artists, train the talents on their team and occasionally perform with them. Talents are selected in blind auditions, where the coaches cannot see, but only hear the auditioning contestant.

The original panel featuredFlorent Pagny,Jenifer,Louis Bertignac andGarou; the panel for the upcoming fifteenth season will feature Pagny,Amel Bent,Lara Fabian andTayc. Other coaches that have appeared in previous seasons includeMika,Zazie,Matt Pokora,Pascal Obispo,Soprano,Julien Clerc,Marc Lavoine,Vianney,Bigflo & Oli,Zaz, andPatricia Kaas.Nolwenn Leroy served as a coach for Comeback Stage contestants in the eleventh season.Camille Lellouche was the comeback stage coach for the thirteenth season.The Voice Kids coachPatrick Fiori participated as a coach in the All Stars format of the show.

The series consists of three phases: a blind audition, a battle phase, and live performance shows. Four judges/coaches, all noteworthy recording artists, choose teams of contestants through a blind audition process. Each judge has the length of the auditioner's performance (about one minute) to decide if he or she wants that singer on his or her team; if two or more judges want the same singer (as happens frequently), the singer has the final choice of coach.Another twist is brought to the show, the block. Beside the big red button, each coaches have 3 other buttons which have the name of other coach. If the coach want an artist but doesn't want a rival coaches to get that artist, they can hit the button with the name of the coach that they want to block, it will automatically blocks that other coaches and spin the chair. If the blocked coach choose to turn around, their entire chair lighting will stay red, the "JE VOUS VEUX" text below the chair will not appear and the LED screen toward them will say "BLOQUE" instead, not the coaches name. In season 12, can block another coach at any time, even during their pitch. When a coach is blocked, his/her chair turns back.

Each team of singers is mentored and developed by its respective coach. In the second stage, called the battle phase, coaches have two of their team members battle against each other directly by singing the same song together, with the coach choosing which team member to advance from each of four individual "battles" into the first live round. Within that first live round, the surviving acts from each team again compete head-to-head, with a combination of public and jury vote deciding who advances onto the next round.In the final phase, the remaining contestants (top 8) compete against each other in live broadcasts. The television audience and the coaches have equal say 50/50 in deciding who moves on to the final 4 phase. With one team member remaining for each coach, the final 4 contestants compete against each other in the finale with the outcome decided solely by public vote.

In late 2011 French production company Shine France bought the format and the large national television chains, includingTF1 andM6, expressed interest. TF1 eventually won the contract and the format was aired in 2012 as a replacement to the long runningStar Academy series.^[1]
