Christina Milian announced she will not return to her hosting duties at The Voice for season 5.

Milian, who has been a social media correspondent for the hit singing competition show since season 2, shared the news on Extra. The mother-of-one said she will take a break to focus on her music career at the YouTube Space L. A. event on Aug. 22.

"I took a break this season so I can work on my music," Milain said in the video below. "I've watched so many of these artists up there performing, I get that envy. I want it to be me. It's that time, and sometimes it takes a little sacrifice."

The news heats up the rumor that she will likely be announced as a contestant on the upcoming season of Dancing With The Stars. Star magazine reported Wednesday that Milian signed on to join the upcoming season 17. The magazine said Snooki and Jack Osbourne have also have signed on to compete against each other on ABC's hit dance competition show.

The news about MTV's Snooki & JWoww star came a year after she gave birth to son Lorenzo in August 2012.

Other names rumored to be joining this year's show include Teen Mom star Farrah Abraham, former baseball player Jason Varitek, Full House star John Stamos and Family Guy actor Seth MacFarlane. Abraham recently told Enstars exclusively that viewers will "find out this week" whether she will be joining the cast list.
