Two New 'The Voice' Coaches Joining for Season 26
Gwen Stefani, Reba McEntire
It will be musical red swivel chairs when The Voice returns for Season 26 with two returning coaches and two new coaches and longtime coach John Legend choosing to sit out the season.
Returning coaches will include Reba McEntire and Gwen Stefani, and the new coaches taking their place in the coaches' chairs will be Snoop Dogg and Michael Bublé, NBC announced Monday.
This will be Reba’s third season in a row and her ties to NBC will be stronger in the fall as she will be starring in the new comedy Happy’s Place, in which she plays Bobbi, who inherits her father’s bar and is less than thrilled to discover that she has a new business partner in the half-sister she never knew she had.

In the meantime, Reba is still hoping for her first win. This season she has two remaining members on her team: country artist Josh Sanders and soul singer Asher HaVon, who will perform in tonight’s Top 9 competition in hopes of making the Top 5.
Gwen will return for her eighth season. She was previously a coach on Seasons 7, 9, 12, 17, 19, 22, and 24, winning Season 19 with Carter Rubin.
Snoop is no stranger to The Voice. He previously took the reins as Season 20’s Mega Mentor, and Michael served as a Season 3 advisor to Blake Shelton.
In addition to the absence of John Legend next season, Season 25’s Chance the Rapper and Dan + Shay will also be giving up their coaching spots.
The Voice airs Monday night at 8 p.m. ET/PT for performances, Tuesday night at 8 p.m. ET/PT for results on NBC. Streams next day on Peacock.
