Danielle Bradbery The Voice Season 4 Winner, Signs With Taylor Swift's Record Label- But Some Say She "Won't Be A Star" [VIDEO]

Danielle Bradbery won The Voice, taking home the Season 4 title. [WATCH VIDEO BELOW]. And just a day after winning The Voice, Danielle Bradbery signed with Taylor Swift's label Big Machine Records.

Danielle Bradbery, 16, will go from winning The Voice to recording-she's due to start recording with Taylor's label next week. Blake Shelton said Bradbery might be "the first person [they've] actually discovered" on The Voice.

Carson Daly announced the country crooner's Season 4 win on The Voice. Danielle Bradbery's Season 4 Win makes her the youngest The Voice winner ever.

Naysayers have said that Danielle Bradbery "won't be a star". A writer at Entertainment Weekly said, "Danielle shouldn't be dismissed-girl can sing. But she shouldn't win, either-girl can only sing. Her performance style is generously described as repetitive and less generously described as nonexistent."

The Daily Beast was also negative about Danielle's star potential. They said, "A milquetoast mannequin with a pretty voice can only go so far-just ask the graveyard of personality-drained reality-competition winners with no careers."

While The Voice doesn't have a great track record of discovering talent that succeeds after the show, something might change with Danielle Bradbery's Voice win. She's signed to a label very fast-and it's Taylor Swift's. Bradbery will begin recording immediately-which is a good sign.

Bradbery, who is just 16, bowled judges over when she won The Voice. She had never sang in public before her audition. Blake Shelton said to her, You're one of the most important people to walk across this stage." Blake Shelton said, "Even to take myself out of the equation - Danielle Bradbery, and I've said this on the show, I think might be the most important artist to ever walk across The Voice stage because we've seen some artists come and go who've had record deals before, who have done some things before. Danielle Bradbery may be the first person we've actually discovered here on this show."

Bradbery still wants to work with Blake Shelton, her coach. "I definitely would love to have Blake [Shelton] included in everything. The music, I want to make my own song and... Oh man I'm just so excited for whatever comes," Danielle Bradbery, 16, said.
