=== The Voice ===

At the blind auditions on September 23, 2014, Shirey performed [[wikipedia:Jessie J|Jessie J]]'s "Big White Room", prompting [[wikipedia:Adam Levine|Adam Levine]], [[wikipedia:Gwen Sefani|Gwen Stefani]], and [[wikipedia:Pharrell Williams|Pharrell Williams]] to turn their chairs. Shirey then chose Williams and remained on his team. At the Battle rounds, Shirey faced Toia Jones where they sang the song "[[Halo]]", Shirey was chosen over Jones, in the process advanced to the Knockout rounds. During the Knockouts, Shirey sang "[[Saving All My Love For You]]" against Katriz Trinidad in which Pharrel selected her to remain in the competition, sending home Trinidad. During the Top 20 show, she sang "[[Help Me]]" and was voted through by America into the next week. The following week, the pop singer sang a rendition of [[Radiohead]]'s song "[[Creep (Radiohead song)|Creep]]." During the Top 10 playoffs, Shirey sang a rendition of "[[I Have Nothing]]" and was voted through by America into the next week and . In the Top 8 round, her performance of "[[These Dreams]]" by [[Heart (band)|Heart]] earned her enough votes to place her among the bottom four contestants. She was ultimately eliminated during the Quarterfinals. In a last attempt to remain on the show and get the Twitter Instant Save, she performed "[[I'd Rather Go Blind]]", but fellow contestant Chris Jamison received it instead (as the site's presentation when Vote for the Girls host Ava Zinn says to the seven other moderators, "Let me tell you would've been if the Moderators' Veto had not not used,"  and the announcement of Jamison's save is interrupted by a long buzzer. After 3 seconds, Zinn announces, "DaNica Shirey is eliminated, and that means we have zero female contestants left in this competition. What this means is that there is a Vote for the Girls loss and it's the first time on "The Voice" it has ever happened. According to the rules, though, the competition is over. Since the Moderators' Veto was used to reject DaNica's defeat, we will NOT declare a loss and none of the moderators face a punishment for failure to get DaNica to a victory"). Shirey was the last female contestant to be eliminated, leaving an all-male Top 5 for the first time in the show's history, leaving the moderator panel of the popular and controversial web site [[Vote for the Girls (U.S.)|''Vote for the Girls USA'']] moderator panel stunned.
