'When Love Takes Over'. Article continues below Kelly is no stranger to judging talent shows, having served as a judge on The X Factor UK and The X Factor USA, as well as being a
coach on The Voice Australia. The star has been in the spotlight for multiple decades and has years of experience in the music industry, making her a highly respected and influential figure
in global entertainment and pop culture. Speaking about her arrival on The Voice UK, Kelly said: "I am excited to join The Voice UK as a coach, and am looking forward to working with
the excellent and passionate coaches the show is known for. I can’t wait to hear all the new talent and to go to battle for my team. Let’s go!" Sir Tom Jones expressed his excitement
for the series, saying: "It’s always a pleasure to return to The Voice UK as every year I’m reminded of the incredible talent we have in this country." "I’m looking forward to
sitting alongside will.i.am once again, having Tom and Danny in their chair for a second series, and of course I’m excited to welcome Kelly Rowland to the panel. She’s an amazing artist
with a huge amount of experience to share." Will.I.Am added: "can't wait for the new season of The Voice UK. I'm so happy to be back on it. If you thought last year was
dope, this year we've got Kelly Rowland who's gonna take this season to the dopest level possible!" "We've got Danny and Tom who are the super dope duo, and the
dopest legend of them all is back - Sir Tom Jones." "The whole point of this show is to watch aspirational, ambitious singers pursue their dreams - it's a joy prescription for
a healthy amount of dopamine that brings love to our lives," he concluded. _JOIN THE __DAILY RECORD'S WHATSAPP COMMUNITY HER_E _AND GET THE LATEST NEWS SENT STRAIGHT TO YOUR
