A major shake-up on the voice! We have all the details!
Hey hey friends, what's up, happy Tuesday and thanks for tuning back in to Clevver News.
NBC announced on Monday that they will be replacing Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green with Usher and Shakira on 'The Voice' next season.
Now, if you're shocked by this news, don't be. Christina and Cee Lo will return back to the show for season 5 in the fall, this is simply just a break.
The new additions are actually a plan from NBC and producers to develop an ongoing group of mentors for The Voice that can be mixed and matched as needed as the show continues on in the future.
Christina released a statement about her brief departure, saying QUOTE: 'I am so proud of being part of the show from the beginning, all the work we've done, and proud of what the show stands for as a whole. As I have expressed since day one of the show, that I am a singer and performer first and I am so excited to get back to that love. Since this year NBC and The Voice have decided to tape back-to-back seasons, requiring a full-year commitment, it is important for me to take season four off, allowing me to support my music that my fans have been waiting for — with the release of my new album Lotus on November 13.'
She also added that when she returns from promoting the new album and touring, she'll have even more to offer her future teams on the hit NBC show.
