Jessie J is on board for the second series of The Voice. 

 

The singer officially announced her involvement by tweeting: “I will be a coach on the 2nd series of The Voice UK!”

 

She followed it up with an excited “I’m B B B Back!”

 

The singer seems pretty psyched about it as she also said: “Can’t wait! #thevoiceuk #weback *fist to the sky*”

 

Meanwhile, the top minds behind the show have revealed some details about certain improvements they’ve made upon the original format of the show. According to BBC entertainment boss Mark Linsey, the new run of the programme will feature fewer live shows and a longer blind audition section.

 

These changes were inspired by the performance of the show’s previous series, whose ratings dived after the blind auditions ended. 

 

Danny O’Donoghue of The Script also criticised the show’s winner Leanne Mitchell for being boring. Mitchell also failed to enter the Top 40 singles charts with her debut single, and her tour was even cancelled due to poor ticket sales. 

 

Danny said: “She won the show, you know, in the final she was technically the best singer. Was she technically the best artist? No. But that’s just my opinion.”

 

The second series of The Voice will return to the telly in 2013.
