Good news for
Christina Aguilera! The singer will be the third member of the judging panel of the new competition singing show
The Voice alongside
Cee Lo Green and Maroon 5's
Adam Levine.
She said in a statement: "I am so excited to be part of such a wonderful project that celebrates music and the talent behind it. To be given the opportunity to help shape new artists' careers and mentor them to see their dreams come to fruition is a task I welcome with open arms. I am so happy to be working with fellow Grammy Award winners Adam and Cee Lo as I feel there is so much we can all bring to
The Voice."
The NBC show is set to rival
American Idol and
Simon Cowell's US
X Factor when it launches in America later this year.
The Voice is to be produced by Mark Burnett and John de Mol, who created
The Voice of Holland, the Dutch show it is based on. Late night talk show host Carson Daly has been lined up to present.
