pronom réference

Regardez les phrases suivante: Elle est à l'origin du groupe, et elle écrit la majorité des chansons. J'adore sa voix. Ce semble que "sa" dans ce dernière phrase réfère à Chantal Lauby, pas Jennifer. N'est-ce pas?

Placement of object pronouns

Il va leur téléphoner.He's going to telephone themIl va appeler ses parents. -> Il va les appeler.

He's going to call his parents. -> He's going to call them.

In these above examples, why are both the direct and indirect object pronouns placed in between the verbs instead of in front of both of them?

Merci.
