The Voice is switching things up for Season 22. 

Camila Cabello is set to join the coaching panel of the hit show this coming fall. The former Fifth Harmony member made the big reveal through song, popping her head up in a clip that was shared on Twitter. In the clip, veteran The Voice judges Blake Shelton, John Legend, and Gwen Stefani were likewise confirmed to return to the singing competition. 

The tweet stated:

“Give a warm welcome to your Voice Coaches.”

Each vocal powerhouse was then tagged in a duet video where they sang along to Mika’s “Grace Kelly” viral track.

Another Twitter announcement showed the four coaches’ names in bold white lettering with the famous The Voice red chairs in the background. 

Kelly previously served as coach on the who’s for eight seasons and has won four times, most recently in the recently concluded Season 21 with the act, Girl Named Tom. Kelly said:

“I literally said ‘no’ to everything this summer. I will not do anything this summer. 

Since I was 16 years old I haven’t had a summer off. This is my first summer off. I am taking time.”

Camila previously served as an adviser alongside John legend’s team last season. At the time, John said in an interview:

“Camila has all the experience she needs to be the perfect adviser for our team. She has navigated a singing competition before and don’t very well on it.

She was part of a group, and in this battle setting, where the artists are dieting with each other, that’s a very important skill to have.

And obviously, she’s an incredibly successful artist and performer in her own right, and all the things she’s learned throughout these years are going to be so important for our team.”

Camila is in fact no stranger to reality competitions. She got her start with the girl group Fifth harmony on X-Factor back in 2012. She left the group in 2016 to pursue a solo career. On The Voice last season, she shared:

“I would not be where I am today if I hadn’t auditioned for a show like this. 

It genuinely gives people an opportunity, which I think is so amazing, so beautiful.”
