\n\tRiley Green<\/a>, Kelly Clarkson<\/a> and Adam Levine<\/a> are already on board as part of the coaching panel for season 30. <\/p>\n

\n\tIt\u2019s Clarkson\u2019s 10th season and the Maroon 5 singer\u2019s 18th coaching with The Voice, the latter of whom will be returning as champion, while country star Riley Green will be making his debut alongside Queen Latifah in the red chairs later in 2026. Green previously performed during The Voice\u2018s finales in seasons 26 and 28. <\/p>\n

\n\tIn celebration of The Voice\u2018s 30th season, NBC is promising plenty of surprise guests along the way and callbacks to memorable moments and episodes from previous seasons. <\/p>\n

\n\tAs a Grammy-winner, movie star who\u2019s picked up victories at the Emmy Awards and Academy Awards, and now a Rock & Roll Hall of Fame<\/a> inductee, Queen Latifah has just about seen it all in more than 35 years in music. She will bring a diverse skill set and a broad range of entertainment industry expertise to The Voice.<\/p>\n

\n\tPrior to sitting down in the red chair this fall, 2026 is shaping up to be a busy year for the New Jersey rap legend. Queen Latifah is slated to host<\/a> the 2026 American Music Awards,<\/a> which will air live from Las Vegas on Memorial Day (May 25).<\/p>\n

\n\tThe \u201cU.N.I.T.Y.\u201d rapper will also be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame<\/a> in November. Queen Latifah was announced as part of a decorated 2026 class of groundbreaking rhymers that includes Wu-Tang Clan and MC Lyte. The 56-year-old is among the year\u2019s musical influence award recipients.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Voice returns to NBC this fall, and will stream on Peacock the next day.<\/p>\n
