Sydney powerhouse Diana Rouvas has been crowned winner of The Voice 2019 in one of the biggest Grand Finales ever.

In the closest voting results in the history of The Voice Australia, Diana, a returning All Star, edged out runner-up Daniel Shaw, and the other two finalists, Zeek Power and Jordan Anthony.

Her winner’s single, Wait For No One, is available to listen to here.

Diana is the first winner of The Voice to be coached by Boy George, who said: “Diana makes me cry when she sings. She has a voice that is a gift from above and I’m super proud to have coached and been touched by her amazing talent.

“I can’t wait to perform with her again. She is Australia’s Barbra Streisand and I don’t say that lightly.”

In winning The Voice season eight, Diana has earned a recording contract with EMI Recorded Music Australia and $100,000 in prizemoney.

Diana checked into the Departure Lounge with Stampsy and Andy (in for Josh this week) got the low down on post Final celebrations and how she will spend the 100k!
