'The Voice' Enlists Reba McEntire, Sia, Monica and Adam Blackstone As Advisers

The Voice'The Voice' just added a little more star power to its roster as Sia, Monica, Reba McEntire and producer Adam Blackstone join the competition series as advisers.

The music pros will help coaches Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton in the battle competition phase.

According to NBC, Sia will team up with Xtina (just think of the rhyming capabilities!); the two Adams (Levine and Blackstone) will work together; Cee Lo is teamed with Monica; and Shelton is with country superstar Reba McEntire. The coaches will work with advisers to pit their own artists against each other, cutting the teams in half via dueling duets.

The coaches chose their advisers. Look for the new additions to help select songs that suit the contestants. NBC said the adviser rosters will expand as the competition heads toward live performances.

'The Voice' debuted to strong ratings last Tuesday, pulling in a 5.1 share in the 18–49 demographic and 11.8 million total viewers. The next episode airs Tues., May 3 at 9PM.

You could have left REBA out!
This show is much better than AI the judges are going on voice and gut reactions. Much better than Idol

they are already scrambling to keep it afloat. LOL 11.8 million is nothing compared ti American Idol with 45 million so they debuted in the hole already. As summer is getting here do you think people will stop spending their outdoor time to run inside and watch this for 10 weeks during the summer. They should have debuted it in the fall, they would get more viewers.

It's as if they actually WANT to find a new country star or something. Country music = special olympics of music!

I wish they would explain who Blake Shelton is.
FYI - I don't listen to mainstream country because its mostly pop music. Rap is now dance/house for some reason.
