Alisan Porter, a former actress best known for her roles in films like "Stella", "Curly Sue" and "Meet Dave", has won the tenth season of singing reality show "The Voice".
Porter was announced as the winner on Tuesday night, reports variety.com.
Porter, who is born in Worcester, Massachusetts, is the first contestant to win with a female coach, with singer Christina Aguilera helping steer her to victory.
Country singer Adam Wakefield was runner up, with Hannah Huston coming in third and Laith Al-Saadi rounding out the final four.
Blake Shelton has previously coached four winners, Adam Levine has won with three, and Pharrell Williams and Usher have both coached one winning contestant each.
In season 11, Levine and Shelton will be joined by two new coaches, Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keys.
