The Voice is adding some more star power to its current season.
Sheryl Crow and LeAnn Rimes will join the NBC series as “mega mentors” to help the remaining competitors prepare for the show’s playoff rounds, which begin April 28. Crow will work with the singers on Kelsea Ballerini’s and Michael Bublé’s teams, while Rimes will mentor the remaining artists for John Legend’s and Adam Levine’s squads.
Between them, Crow and Rimes have 11 Grammy Awards and more than 80 million albums sold to date. Both are also familiar with The Voice — Crow was a mentor back in season four (which aired in 2013), and Rimes has been a coach on the British and Australian versions of the show.
Crow was inducted into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame in 2023. She has nine Grammys to her name, as well as five multiplatinum-selling albums. Her most recent album, Evolution, was released in 2024.
In addition to a pair of Grammy Awards, Rimes has collected two CMA Awards and three Academy of Country Music Awards over her career, and her song “How Do I Live” is one of the biggest singles of all time.
The Voice continues to be one of NBC’s more popular shows, with season 27 averaging 5.28 million same-day viewers on Monday nights, according to Nielsen. The fall edition averaged 6.57 million viewers on Mondays and 5.69 million on Tuesdays after a week of delayed viewing (but not including streaming).
