Excitement is building among fans of The Voice as the official coaching lineup for Season 28 has just been announced — and it’s already sparking buzz across social media.
Returning to the iconic red chairs are fan favorites Blake Shelton , Kelly Clarkson , and John Legend , who will be joined by a surprise fourth coach: pop sensation and powerhouse vocalist Ariana Grande .
This marks Ariana’s debut on the show, and fans couldn’t be more thrilled. Known for her incredible four-octave vocal range and chart-topping hits like “Thank U, Next,” “7 Rings,” , and “Positions” , Ariana brings a fresh, modern edge to the panel that many believe has been missing in recent seasons.
Her addition comes after several seasons of rotating guest coaches and unexpected departures, making this new lineup feel like a breath of fresh air for longtime viewers.
🎤 What We Know So Far:
- Blake Shelton continues his record-breaking run as the longest-serving coach in The Voice history. With multiple wins under his belt and his signature country charm, he remains a favorite among contestants and fans alike.
- Kelly Clarkson , the show’s original winner and beloved host of The Kelly Clarkson Show , brings both musical expertise and humor to the stage. Her mentorship style is tough but fair — and always heartfelt.
- John Legend returns for another season as the soulful voice of reason on the panel. His calm demeanor and deep musical knowledge make him a go-to coach for artists looking to grow vocally and emotionally.
- Ariana Grande makes her highly anticipated debut, bringing not only vocal excellence but also a strong sense of artistry and authenticity. Many believe her presence could attract a younger, more diverse pool of talent to the show.
Speculation about Ariana joining The Voice has been circulating for years, especially after she appeared as a guest advisor during previous seasons. Now that it’s official, fans are flooding social media with excitement.
“She’s going to change the game,” one fan tweeted.
“This might be the best coaching lineup yet,” wrote another.
With the new season set to premiere in early 2025, anticipation is high. Will Blake finally lose his crown as top coach? Can Kelly continue her streak of finding hidden gems? Will John Legend inspire the next generation of soul singers?
And most importantly… what kind of impact will Ariana Grande make in her very first season?
