Van Nieuwland rose to fame when she participated in the third season of The Voice of Holland in 2012.

During the competition, she received a Gold award for her cover of "More", which she sang during her audition.

So far, she has been the only contestant to have had four number one chart listings and to have received an award during the competition.

Van Nieuwland was eliminated in the semi-finals by Leona Philippo, who went on to win The Voice of Holland.

That same day, her single "Venus" (which she also performed in The Voice of Holland) was released.
