Javier Colon wins "The Voice" Dominican-Boricua

"The Voice," NBC's runaway smash singing competition, has its first winner: Javier Colon.
The American singer and songwriter is of Dominican and Puerto Rican origin and was born in Bridgeport, Connecticut. No stranger to the music scene, Colon was a member of EmcQ, The Derek Trucks Band and has worked with several musicians before eventually going solo.
Prior to the show, he was signed to Capitol Records, but is now an independent artist with his own label, Javier Colon Music.
On the show, Colon became an early favorite after auditioning with a terrific rendition of "Time After Time," and he was mentored by Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine.
Colon defeated Dia Frampton, Vicci Martinez and Beverly McClellan for the top prize. He will receive $100,000 and a recording contract.
After his victory was announced at the end of the one-hour season finale Wednesday night, the joyful Colon said, "I don't even know where to begin other than to say that the three women behind here are absolutely awesome."

His biggest competitor on the results show was Frampton, mentored by country music star Blake Shelton. The soft-voiced singer came in second place, with only a 2 percent margin separating her and Colon.

During the season finale on NBC, the final 4 singers took to the stage to perform duets with professional artists ranging from Train's lead singer Pat Monahan to rock legend Stevie Nicks.
The winner is announced...

WHAT IS PLANKING? PICTURES EXTREME PLANKING

What is Planking? About Planking

In case you have not heard about the latest internet sensation, it involves people facedown on objects, making their bodies stiff and faces expressionless, while lying across virtually anything. This silly, yet fun phenomena has become quite popular in Australia, as those who take part in planking have someone snap a photo of them so they can post photos of their stunts online, on sites like Facebook. There is a Facebook page devoted specifically to people uploading pictures of themselves doing planks, trying to out duel one another with the most funny, crazy and bizarre plank pictures.
