The youngest artist to make the cut in NBC's new hit musical competition "The Voice" is 16-year-old Raquel Castro of Port Jefferson Station, Newsday's Andy Edelstein reports.
On Tuesday's show she wowed the judges with her version of Leona Lewis' "Bleeding Love" and was chosen by Christina Aguilera for her team.
Castro is no stranger to show-biz, though: She played the daughter of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez's characters in the 2004 movie "Jersey Girl."
