Blake Shelton Returning to The Voice in Shocking Season 27 Surprise

Rounding out the star-studded finale will be James Bay and Sheryl Crow debuting the television performance of “You and Me Time.”

Not to mention, one of the five season 27 finalists will be crowned the winner.

Blake’s return may come as a surprise to some fans, as the country star previously revealed he never planned to return to the reality series. Well, as a coach at least.

“I did 23 seasons of the show and I enjoyed it,” Blake exclusively told E! News last year, “and by the time I got to that last season, it was time.” 

“I needed to get back to what my day job was anyway,” Blake—who met wife and fellow former Voice coach Gwen Stefani on the show—added, “which is, you know, being a country singer.” 

The Voice season 20 finale airs Tuesday, May 20 at 9 p.m. on NBC.
