John Legend has announced he will be a coach on the upcoming 16th season of “The Voice” in the spring. The R&B superstar will join returning coaches Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, and Kelly Clarkson in the big red chairs.

“I’m thrilled to join the coaches of ‘The Voice.’ I’ve been a guest and mentor on the show multiple times and I’m so excited to discover talented singers and help them make the most of their gift. I hope the world is ready for #TeamJL,” said John Legend.

“I feel like my voice is made for Christmas,” he told Real 92.3. “It has that sound, we can do the classic songs but we did some new songs too. I love Christmas music, I grew up just singing around the piano with my family so this really takes me back to those moments.”
