The Voice is shaking up its coaching panel for Season 28 by diving into its old bag of tricks and bringing back some fan favorites.
It was previously announced that Season 26 coach Snoop Dogg would be returning for the 28th instalment of the hit competition series, but the Dogfather isn’t coming alone. On Monday (May 12), NBC revealed former coaches Niall Horan and Reba McEntire will be back for Season 28, alongside current coach Michael Bublé.
McEntire served as a coach for Seasons 24 through 26, while Horan occupied one of the famous red chairs in Seasons 23 and 24. Bublé joined the show for Season 26 and is currently a coach on Season 27 alongside Adam Levine, John Legend, and Kelsea Ballerini.
The Queen of Country and the former One Direction member are returning with wins under their belts. McEntire had success in Season 25 with her singer Asher HaVon, who beat out the competition to be crowned champion. Meanwhile, Horan won back-to-back in Seasons 23 and 24 with Gina Miles and Huntley, respectively.
Bublé won his debut season with Sofronio Vasquez and still has a chance to repeat his success in the currently airing season 27. Meanwhile, Snoop Dogg will be looking for his first win on the board.
Fans took to social media to react to the new line-up, with many sharing their excitement over the returning favorites.
