Why Did Christina Aguilera Join 'The Voice' As A Coach?
Ellie Goulding will be helping out Adam Levine while Meghan Trainor is paired with Blake Shelton. Nick Jonas is going to be helping out Christina Aguilera and Lionel Richie is paired up with Pharrell Williams.
Goulding previously appeared on The Voice during Season 5 when she performed her hit Burn, while Jonas and Trainor each appeared during Season 7 to perform their respective hits, Jealous and Lips Are Movin'.
Richie is a newcomer to The Voice, but definitely a lethal force given all of his accomplishments, which Williams discussed with Entertainment Weekly.
"Who has had a career as long as his and as diverse in genres as him? No one," Williams said of Richie, adding, "He's so masterful as a teacher. Everyone learned something; the people on the set were talking about him. I walked away learning stuff."
Richie revealed on Twitter that he's "very excited" to be a mentor for Williams' team.
Very excited to be joining @NBCTheVoice as a mentor for @Pharrell's team! #teampharrell #thevoice - https://t.co/h5K7KgoSmt — Lionel Richie (@LionelRichie) March 2, 2015
