Ariana Grande is making a comeback to TV, but this time, as a coach on NBC's popular reality singing competition The Voice!

The pop legend, LGBTQ+ ally, and two-time Grammy winner (whose television career initially took after in the early 2010s after starring in Nickelodeon's beloved music-themed series Victorious) will be a regular coach on the upcoming 21st season of The Voice, replacing her Scream Queens co-star Nick Jonas and joining fellow coaches Kelly Clarkson, John Legend, and Blake Shelton.

I can’t wait to go head-to-head with the incredible coaches, get to know these new artists, and help to take their craft to the next level."
