Is There Any Chance of Kelly Clarkson’s Comeback to ‘The Voice?’


After moving to New York City last year, Kelly Clarkson has no plans to go back to The Voice.

The 42-year-old told USA Today in an interview that she is no longer coaching at the singing competition, which is filmed in Los Angeles. She has been teaching there for a long time.

“I’ve learned a lot about what I’m capable of handling, and also what you should not handle. That was me saying ‘bye’ to The Voice and having this big move,” she told the magazine. “I love that family, but I was like, ‘I’m struggling. I can’t smile anymore. I don’t feel like smiling.’”

Clarkson debuted on The Voice in Season 2 as a coach’s assistant to Blake Shelton. She later came back in Season 13 as a coach’s assistant.

A year later, the singer of “Breakaway” was made an official coach and worked with acts all the way through Season 21.

Season 23, which played earlier this year, was her last time on The Voice.

Clarkson chose to move from Los Angeles two years after she and her ex-husband Brandon Blackstock filed for divorce.

As their main caretaker, she currently lives in the city with their two kids, River Rose, 9, and Remington, 7.
