"The thing I love about The Voice is that they’re more mentors - they’re not judges. I would never really want to be a judge, just because I don’t want to break people’s hearts,” Kelly previously said about the talent competition, which also stars Christina Aguilera, Adam Levine and Cee Lo Green.
"I so want to audition for The Voice and see if I can get the chairs to turn around!" she added. Umm, we're pretty sure you'd have no problem doing that, Kelly!
