The news was revealed during a live press event in New York, where Clarkson appeared alongside current judges John Legend and Chance the Rapper. Smiling, she confirmed the rumors that had been swirling for weeks. Clarkson, who served as a coach on The Voice from 2018 until 2023 before stepping away to focus on The Kelly Clarkson Show, expressed her excitement about returning to the show\u2019s iconic red chairs. \u201cThis program changed my life in so many ways, and I can\u2019t wait to help discover the next generation of talent,\u201d she told the crowd.<\/p>\n<p>Clarkson\u2019s comeback marks a major turning point for the long-running singing competition, which in recent years has seen a frequent rotation of judges. Her natural humor, powerhouse vocals, and unfiltered feedback made her a fan favorite during her first run, and producers are counting on her presence to boost ratings again. NBC\u2019s head of reality programming, Jenny Garth, described Clarkson as \u201cthe heart and soul of The Voice\u201d and hinted that her talk show co-stars might join in a special \u201cmega-mentor\u201d role, possibly alongside surprise appearances from former contestants. The new season is set to begin filming this fall, with Clarkson joining Reba McEntire and a yet-to-be-announced fourth coach on the panel.<\/p>\n<p>Reactions across social media were immediate. Fans flooded platforms with celebratory posts and shared some of Clarkson\u2019s most iconic Voice moments\u2014from her playful rivalries with Blake Shelton to the emotional standing ovations she gave to underdog contestants. Fellow coaches past and present, including Shelton and Ariana Grande, also congratulated her. Shelton even joked: \u201cGreat, now I\u2019ll have to hear her yelling \u2018I\u2019m your coach!\u2019 from my couch again.\u201d Meanwhile, viewers of The Kelly Clarkson Show are already speculating about possible crossovers, such as live performances or behind-the-scenes features.<\/p>\n<div class=\"google-auto-placed ap_container\"><ins class=\"adsbygoogle adsbygoogle-noablate\" data-ad-format=\"auto\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-2987067766673897\" data-adsbygoogle-status=\"done\" data-ad-status=\"unfilled\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"aswift_3_host\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" id=\"aswift_3\" tabindex=\"0\" title=\"Advertisement\" src=\"https:\/\/googleads.g.doubleclick.net\/pagead\/ads?gdpr=0&amp;gdpr_consent=CQXX-4AQXX-4AEsACBENB7FoAP_gAEPgACaIK1IB_C7EbCFCiDp3IKMEMAhHABBAYsAwAAYBAwAADBIQIAQCgkEYBASAFCACCAAAKASBAAAgCAAAAUAAIAAVAABAAAwAIBAIIAAAgAAAAEAIAAAACIAAEQCAAAAEAEAAkAgAAAIASAAAAAAAAACBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABAAAAQAAQAAAAAAAiAAAAAAAABAIAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgAAAAAAAAAABAAAAAAAQR2QD-F2I2EKFEHCuQUYIYBCuACAAxYBgAAwCBgAAGCQgQAgFJIIkCAEAIEAAEAAAQAgCAABQEBAAAIAAAAAqAACAABgAQCAQQIABAAAAgIAAAAAAEQAAIgEAAAAIAIABABAAAAQAkAAAAAAAAAECAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAEABgAAAAAABEAAAAAAAACAQIAAA&amp;addtl_consent=2~61.89.122.184.196.230.314.442.445.494.550.576.827.1029.1033.1046.1047.1051.1097.1126.1166.1301.1342.1415.1725.1765.1942.1958.1987.2068.2072.2074.2107.2213.2219.2223.2224.2328.2331.2387.2416.2501.2567.2568.2575.2657.2686.2778.2869.2878.2908.2920.2963.3005.3023.3100.3126.3219.3234.3235.3253.3309.3731.6931.8931.13731.15731.33931~dv.&amp;client=ca-pub-2987067766673897&amp;output=html&amp;h=280&amp;adk=3530405561&amp;adf=1132886745&amp;pi=t.aa~a.1381849204~i.5~rp.4&amp;daaos=1758153986256&amp;w=650&amp;fwrn=4&amp;fwrnh=100&amp;lmt=1758234361&amp;num_ads=1&amp;rafmt=1&amp;armr=3&amp;sem=mc&amp;pwprc=1137438718&amp;ad_type=text_image&amp;format=650x280&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwsurg.com%2F30-minutes-ago-in-new-york-kelly-clarkson-was-confirmed-as%2F&amp;fwr=0&amp;pra=3&amp;rh=163&amp;rw=650&amp;rpe=1&amp;resp_fmts=3&amp;wgl=1&amp;fa=27&amp;abgtt=6&amp;dt=1758234361369&amp;bpp=2&amp;bdt=936&amp;idt=2&amp;shv=r20250917&amp;mjsv=m202509160101&amp;ptt=9&amp;saldr=aa&amp;abxe=1&amp;cookie=ID%3Dc33b9489f336f09c%3AT%3D1748211831%3ART%3D1758234316%3AS%3DALNI_MYonYFKrfca6Til4FBnu6USbgAyuw&amp;gpic=UID%3D000010c6ec772998%3AT%3D1748211831%3ART%3D1758234316%3AS%3DALNI_MYFNDyLlVg7TZ3Y2xRjKQlEeP9WOw&amp;eo_id_str=ID%3Dfbac2e74a2ad32f4%3AT%3D1748211831%3ART%3D1758234316%3AS%3DAA-AfjbI9sTkn1b1o0OesxB6Tmer&amp;prev_fmts=0x0%2C1200x280%2C1005x124&amp;nras=4&amp;correlator=2381204074734&amp;frm=20&amp;pv=1&amp;u_tz=120&amp;u_his=3&amp;u_h=864&amp;u_w=1536&amp;u_ah=824&amp;u_aw=1536&amp;u_cd=24&amp;u_sd=1.25&amp;adx=245&amp;ady=1964&amp;biw=1519&amp;bih=711&amp;scr_x=0&amp;scr_y=739&amp;eid=42532524%2C95370628%2C95370776%2C95371810%2C95371815%2C31094741%2C95352052%2C95360692%2C95371230&amp;oid=2&amp;psts=AOrYGsmZA8VwQZhspaUz47FIxic4v8p1_WreLpkI_ptupbUfG_HKeGLzv48P7ZBYYYPXYUZUU5oPU_7zkkq5alxIrcTuTxMY7MKnU92KEKIG0TSbow&amp;pvsid=7423697584392042&amp;tmod=1863875870&amp;uas=0&amp;nvt=1&amp;ref=https%3A%2F%2Fwsurg.com%2F&amp;fc=1408&amp;brdim=-7%2C-7%2C-7%2C-7%2C1536%2C0%2C1550%2C838%2C1536%2C711&amp;vis=1&amp;rsz=%7C%7Cs%7C&amp;abl=NS&amp;fu=128&amp;bc=31&amp;bz=1.01&amp;pgls=CAEaBTYuNy4z&amp;ifi=4&amp;uci=a!4&amp;btvi=2&amp;fsb=1&amp;dtd=77\" name=\"aswift_3\" width=\"650\" height=\"0\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" sandbox=\"allow-forms allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-same-origin allow-scripts allow-top-navigation-by-user-activation\" data-google-container-id=\"a!4\" aria-label=\"Advertisement\" data-load-complete=\"true\" data-google-query-id=\"CMGT0rSt448DFbVC9ggdh-M6fQ\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p><\/ins><\/div>\n<p>Beyond The Voice, Clarkson\u2019s career is thriving.
