The Voice UK 2021 sees a new look panel: Pop sensation Anne-Marie joins returning Olly Murs, Sir Tom Jones and will.i.am to complete the new look line up.

On joining the new series, Anne-Marie said: “I am SO excited to join Sir Tom, will.i.am and Olly as the new coach on The Voice UK. I can’t wait to work with incredible undiscovered talent! Wahoooooo!”

Sir Tom Jones added: “Anne-Marie will bring an injection of fresh energy and ideas which is fantastic” and will.i.am agreed: “With her songwriting, singing and performance skills, plus her tell-it-like-it-is approach, this makes her the perfect mix-it-up addition to this season.”

And Olly Murs commented: “She is one of the biggest female artists in the industry right now, so it’s great to have her join the team and also help bring the Essex ratio up! We are taking over!“

The 2021 series of The Voice UK will kick off on Saturday, January 2, at 8:30PM with the first round of auditions.

Emma Willis is back as presenter, supporting the contestants throughout their journeys.

As always, budding performers will perform to the backs of the panel and if a coach likes what they hear they can press their button to spin around and select that act for their team.

New for this year is the block, allowing each coach to stop one of their rival coaches from picking an act for their team.

Those that make it through the blind auditions will face the battles before the semi-final and final.

The Voice UK, Saturday nights on ITV, from January 2.
