“I’m so honored and excited to join The Voice family!" Grande said. “I have been a huge fan of the show for such a long time. I can’t wait to go head-to-head with the incredible coaches, get to know these new artists and help to take their craft to the next level.” This season has seen several artists performing songs by Grande, including “pov” and “Stuck with You,” and she herself has appeared on The Voice, performing “Into You,” in 2016, but this will be her first time serving as a coach. “As an undeniable force in pop music, Ariana’s inimitable success in the music industry is extraordinary,” said Jenny Groom, Executive Vice President of Unscripted Content for NBCUniversal Television and Streaming. “We were thrilled to learn that she is a true fan of The Voice and know that this enthusiasm will add to her impact as a dynamic coach.
