NBC’s The Voice adds Queen Latifah as a coach for its upcoming 30th season. The singer and rapper joins the show alongside returning and newly announced coaching colleagues, including Kelly Clarkson, Adam Levine, and Riley Green. Queen Latifah is set to make her coaching debut on the competition series, according to the reporting. Both outlets indicate she will join the existing panel as the program expands to a fourth coach for the season. Deadline also notes that while this will be her first time serving as a coach, she has appeared previously as a guest judge on other occasions related to the show’s broader ecosystem. Billboard similarly places her on the coaching roster for the fall season with the other three coaches. Together, the sources frame the casting announcement as an addition to the show’s judging lineup for Season 30 rather than a change to the competition structure itself. The Voice continues to draw from mainstream music artists and performers for its coach panel as it moves into its milestone 30th season.
