Joe Jonas joins celebrity edition of The Voice on NBC
Developing story first seen 3 hours ago
NBC has confirmed a celebrity edition of "The Voice", with Joe Jonas set to make his coaching debut alongside Queen Latifah and Riley Green, while Keke Palmer takes over as host from Carson Daly, who has fronted the show since its 2011 launch. The spin-off, effectively Season 31 of the long-running singing competition, marks the first time the NBC franchise will feature famous faces rather than undiscovered talent, and represents one of the biggest shake-ups in the show's history.
"The Voice: Celebrity" will see actors, musicians, influencers, athletes, comedians and reality TV personalities compete, with production currently under way ahead of a spring 2027 broadcast. New elements include "Voice Boot Camp", giving viewers a behind-the-scenes look at celebrities preparing for their Blind Auditions, and a "VIP room" where artists watch fellow contestants perform. Daly will stay involved as a producer, and the show remains under creator John de Mol, with Mark Burnett and Audrey Morrissey among the executive producers, produced by MGM Alternative, Warner Horizon Unscripted Television and ITV Studios.

Joe Jonas is the latest name confirmed for "The Voice: Celebrity", a new spin-off of the long-running NBC singing competition. The original show, which began in 2011, usually features members of the public auditioning in front of coaches who cannot see them. This version swaps ordinary contestants for well-known faces, marking the first time the format has been used with celebrities rather than undiscovered singers.
Jonas will coach alongside Queen Latifah and Riley Green, while Keke Palmer takes over as host, replacing Carson Daly, who has presented every previous series. Daly is stepping back from hosting but will remain involved as a producer, so the change is one of presenter rather than a full departure from the franchise.
The show is significant because it represents one of the biggest format shifts in the programme's fifteen-year history, opening the competition to actors, musicians, athletes and other public figures. It comes from the same production team behind the original, including creator John de Mol, and is due to air in spring 2027.
