For next spring, cycle 6, The Voice will then switch back to its current lineup, which has made for a surprisingly successful shakeup this season. NBC is finalizing deals with Shakira and Usher, who will take the stage along with Levine and Shelton.
The addition of Shakira and Usher were so popular with fans that some even urged NBC to add the duo full time. But this strategy will help maintain both variety and continuity next season — the judges are all familiar faces, yet not the same faces all season.
Well I guess Golden Globe nominee Shakira won't be premiering her single/album any time soon and will leave that for next year, since she really seems to want to spend time with Milan, and she's used to having long breaks between eras.
OMG, I hope this a ****ing joke. NBC is doing everything in their power to keep Shakira in their ****ing show. Don't they understand that she has million fans out there who are expecting to see her on tour next year? It looks like Shakira is so done with The Voice, she said she has a career to pursue. The wolf pack wants Shakira on tour, leave her alone!
