‘Can’t stand her’: Delta Goodrem is cruelly trolled by viewers as she ‘quits’ The Voice and stays with Channel Nine to launch her own production company

Delta Goodrem has received some backlash after she all but confirmed her departure from The Voice Australia earlier this week.

The 36-year-old singer was trolled by viewers on Facebook after she said she was staying with Channel Nine to launch her own production company, despite Seven acquiring the rights to the competitive singing show.

Many fans of the program made unkind comments about being glad to see Delta gone, with one troll writing: ‘Cannot stand her.’

However, many fans were firmly in Delta’s corner.

She added: ‘What a ride we had red chair❤️! One of the most powerful gifts of my nine-year journey on The Voice has been finding my own voice amongst all of it. 

‘The heart, the dreams people shared, the exceptional talent and the constant inspiration of being around music – so many magic moments that I am so proud of and I am truly grateful for it all.’

Delta added that she ‘wished everyone all the best for a great season ahead’.

The hitmaker joined The Voice in 2012, and served as a judge every year except 2014.

After Nine failed to renew its contract for the 2021 season of The Voice, Channel Seven jumped on the licence very quickly.

Seven CEO James Warburton has big changes in mind for the show, including cutting the number of episodes and having a tighter production schedule.
