LeAnn Rimes and Sheryl Crow will join The Voice as Mega Mentors this season, NBC revealed on Monday (April 14).
Rimes and Crow will add more star power to the competition series after Taylor Swift, Wynonna Judd, Keith Urban and other artists have previously served in the Mega Mentor role, NBC noted. The pair of legendary artists will make their debut in the Playoff rounds.
Both artists are returning to The Voice in some way. Rimes has previously served as a coach on the UK and Australia shows, and Crow joined Joshua Davis to perform a duet together during the Live Finale performance in the show’s eighth season in 2015. Crow served as a Mega Mentor during the show’s fourth seasons and Rimes is stepping into the role for the first time
Coaches this season include John Legend, Adam Levine, Michael Bublé and Kelsea Ballerini, taking her seat in the iconic red chair as a coach for the first time this year. Previously this season, celebrity advisors for each team have been Coco Jones, Kate Hudson, Cynthia Erivo and Little Big Town, respectively.
Playoff rounds will kick off on April 28. The Voice airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT on NBC, and streams on Peacock the following day.
