Adam, 45, and Kelsea, 30, will join John Legend – also returning after a stint off The Voice – and Michael Bublé.

Michael serves as a judge alongside Snoop Dogg, Reba McEntire, and Gwen Stefani.

Fans in the comments on The Voice’s Instagram announcement expressed major confusion.

Reba, 69, and Snoop, 52, were recently announced as part of the show’s judges panel.

They are set to appear when the show returns this Fall.

Adam and Kelsea, however, are slated to appear in Spring 2025.

It’s unclear if any judges plan to leave the show between now and then.

The announcement led to major speculation about who’s potentially leaving and who else might join – or rejoin – the show.

RUMOR’S ARE SWIRLING

“So that obviously means Reba’s leaving and Blake might return,” one fan wrote, suggesting that Blake Shelton, who left the show after Season 23.

“Well, season 26 is coming up and it’s gonna have Reba, Gwen, Michael Bublé, and Snoop Dogg. Adam is talking about season 27, the one coming after this next one coming up so there is still time to get on board for Adam season. Oh please make it happen,” a second supporter posted.

“Omg I’m really happy he’s coming back. Bring back Niall [Horan], Reba, and Kelly [Clarkson]. Wow that would be powerful,” a third fan begged.

“AWESOME That means Sheltonis coming back too!!!!!!” a fourth fan guessed.

“Imagine Adam and Blake being on the same team?! Or Blake as his advisor!! Legendary!!” another The Voice viewer gushed.
