Kelly Clarkson is returning to NBC’s “The Voice” for Season 30, where she will serve as a coach. Multiple outlets report that Clarkson will rejoin fellow coach Adam Levine, who is also returning for the upcoming season. Deadline adds that NBC announced the return on Instagram, using the caption “Team Kelly has RE-entered the chat. Kelly Clarkson returns as a Coach this…” Variety notes that Clarkson previously appeared on “The Voice” during its earlier run as an adviser in Season 2, where she participated in the blind audition stage. She later joined as a judge, and she is now confirmed to return to the panel again for the new season.
The reports also place the news in the context of Clarkson’s recent television schedule: Deadline states that the announcement follows the end of her syndicated talk show. Billboard similarly confirms the return and notes that Levine’s return has already been announced.
