[NEWS] CHRISTINA AND BLAKE EXPLAIN THEIR CHOICE IN ADVISORS FOR 'THE VOICE: SEASON 2'

NBC’s smash hit, The Voice returns on February 5th with a second season that producers guarantee will be bigger and better. In addition to extended Blind Auditions and Battle Rounds, Season 2 of The Voice will also bring a few new faces. Christina Milian has signed on as the new Social Media Correspondent for the show, and a whopping eight celebrity advisers will be helping each coach during the Battle Round of the competition; up from four last year. But of all of the talented individuals in the music biz, how did the coaches ultimately decide on their advisers? Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton offer insight into their decision-making process after the jump.

Lionel Richie, Jewel, Miranda Lambert, and American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson…. Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton are definitely playing to win this season on The Voice, bringing on some of the very best in the music industry to help them take their team members to the next level in the NBC reality competition.

But how did they decide on their advisers this year?

“I just thought that it was important to bring on people who would know how to give advice,” says Aguilera, who will be working with R&B legend Lionel Richie and singer/songwriter, Jewel. “It does take a certain level of skill and approachability to know how to go into a situation and coach up-and-coming artists.”

Her co-star, Blake Shelton, had another approach, however.

“[Lambert and Clarkson] both survived reality television shows,” Shelton explains. “I just wanted somebody who could talk to them about what they’re going through. … And also they’re both really hot.”

Season 2 of The Voice kicks off with the Blind Auditions Sunday, February 5th on NBC, right after the Super Bowl.

[VIDEO] 'THE VOICE: SEASON 2' ADVISORS SNEAK PEEK

[NEWS] 'THE VOICE' NABS NE-YO, ROBIN THICKE, MIRANDA LAMBERT, 5 MORE AS ADVISORS

The Voice is ramping up for battle.

Lionel Richie, Kelly Clarkson, Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, Jewel, Miranda Lambert, Alanis Morissette, Ne-Yo and Robin Thicke will chime in as advisers during the battle rounds in Season 2 of NBC's singing competition series.

The network announced Friday that the group of eight will join coaches Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Cee Lo Green and Christina Aguilera for the battle round pitting two artists from each team against one another to sing a duet.

At the end of each battle round, each artists' respective coach will then decide who goes home and who moves forward to the live shows.

Each of the four coaches brought in a pair of advisers, with Shelton turning to his wife, Lambert, and Clarkson. Team Adam will feature Morissette and Thicke; Team Christina will feature Jewel and Richie; while Team Cee Lo will be joined by Edmonds and Ne-Yo.

“These renowned musicians will bring their unique and recognizable musical styles to the teams,” said Paul Telegdy, NBC president of late night and alternative programming. “They are well-respected singers whose invaluable experience will be a tremendous asset to Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Blake Shelton’s artists.”

The Voice premieres in the plumb post-Super Bowl time slot on Sunday, Feb. 5 at 10 p.m., and returns to its regular slot the following day on Monday, Feb. 6 at 8 p.m.

[NEWS] KELLY CLARKSON WANTS TO SPOOF CHRISTINA AGUILERA AND 'THE VOICE' ON SNL


Kelly Clarkson will perform on “Saturday Night Live” for a third time this weekend (alongside host Charles Barkley), and the “Mr. Know It All” singer is looking forward to returning to the late night comedy show.

“It’s so much fun,” Kelly – who was looking fabulous, sporting sexy, newly-cropped bangs – told Access Hollywood during “SNL” rehearsals in New York on Thursday. “Everybody’s always so nice here and the cast is like a family, so it’s a really cool environment.”

The singer, whose fifth studio album, “Stronger,” is steadily climbing up the music charts, said she loves acting in skits, but doesn’t believe she’ll be able to take part in any of the sketches this time around due to her out-of-state tour rehearsals.

“I’m literally flying out tomorrow morning — I have rehearsal in Connecticut,” she told Access. “We’re starting my tour soon, so we’re literally flying in and out.”

If Kelly’s schedule were to miraculously allow the singer to appear in a sketch, she’s prepared with an idea of who she’d like to play – fellow chart-topper/“The Voice” mentor Christina Aguilera.

“My skit I wanted to do was ‘The Voice,’” she told Access, referencing the hit NBC reality singing competition. “I wanted [Charles] to be on his knees and play Cee Lo [Green] and I wanted to be Christina.

“I just love that show, so I wanted to totally make fun of it,” she added with a laugh. “I make fun of things I like!”

[NEWS] CHRISTINA AGUILERA & KELLY CLARKSON FLAUNT FULLER FIGURES AT THE 2011 AMA'S


Breathless: The Voice judge strikes a sultry pose on stage & Another big voice: America idol star Kelly Clarkson also appeared to have gained weight at the AMA awards


The figure hugging mini-dress was a little on the small, short and tight side for her curvier figure, but she didn't seem to mind as she flaunted it in all it's glory.


As she was raised onto the stage mid-song on a glittery silver podium, Christina looked significantly heavier than the size four she has claimed to be.

American Idol star Kelly Clarkson also appeared fuller figured but she chose to keep her curves under wraps in a full-length sequinned red gown.

The 29-year-old performed a jazzed up version of her single Mr Know-It-All off her new album Stronger surrounded by thirties-themed paparazzi dancers.

She was almost unrecognisable with her darker hair and heavier build.

Clarkson recently joked about wearing two pairs of Spanx while performing on VH1's Unplugged:
'Oh dear God, can we just sing?' she said.
The American Music Awards will be broadcast on Saturday 26th November at 10pm on Viva.
