ITV The Voice fans floored by Tom Jones' real age in stunning performance
The Voice fans were left stunned by Sir Tom Jones' seemingly age-defying looks on Saturday night, as he teamed up with LeAnn Rimes for a memorable duet. The pair harmonised beautifully during the second round of blind auditions, under the watchful eyes of fellow coaches Will.i.am, Danny Jones, and Tom Fletcher.
LeAnn Rimes was visibly thrilled to share the stage with Sir Tom, who is 83 years old, asking him during the show: "What do you love singing these days? What is your favourite song to sing at your gigs?"
Sir Tom responded with his usual charm: "I think once a hit, always a hit, you know there is something in a hit song that remains that way. But I like to do a mixture of stuff."

In a heartfelt exchange, LeAnn turned the attention to Sir Tom, expressing: "I've always wanted to sing with this man right here."
Contemplating their choice of song, Sir Tom asked: "Do you like The Everly Brothers? " To which LeAnn eagerly replied, "I love The Everly Brothers."
"Let It Be Me," announced Sir Tom, before checking: "Do you know that song? Do you want to give it a shot?"
Their rendition of "Let It Be Me" not only mesmerised their fellow coaches but also touched those watching from home, with some viewers being moved to tears. Fans were equally impressed by Sir Tom's timeless look and the magic in his voice.
One fan wrote on X: "Tom Jones has still got it, absolute icon," while someone else disclosed an emotional response: "What have I turned into Saturday night and I'm sat crying at Tom Jones singing."
Contemplating the singer's longevity, a viewer mused, "Will there ever be a day when Sir Tom is too old to sing. I think not."
Assertively, a fifth aficionado lauded, "Sir Tom Jones is the Don. His voice is absolutely awesome," with another comment from the audience: "I'm watching #TheVoice Tom Jones looks great for his age."
