When 25-year-old Sister Cristina Scuccia, a Catholic nun from Sicily, stepped onto The Voice of Italy stage wearing her habit, no one expected what came next.

As soon as she started singing Alicia Keys’ “No One,” the audience and judges were visibly shocked — jaws dropped, eyes widened, and within seconds, all four chairs turned.

One of the judges, Italian rapper J-Ax, was so stunned he ran up to hug her after realizing a nun was behind that powerhouse voice. Another coach, Raffaella Carrà, was left speechless, covering her mouth in awe.
