Singers are being urged to let their talent do the talking, when The Voice UK comes to Gateshead to host auditions for its upcoming series.
It's now been 11 years since The Voice made its debut on British soil, having been a massive hit in America. The first series aired on BBC, with Jessie J, Will.I.Am, Danny O'Donoughue and Tom Jones as coaches, and contestants including Becky Hill, the two time Brit winner, who became a huge chart star years later. Since the first series, the likes of Kylie Minogue, Ricky Wilson, Boy George, Paloma Faith and Jennifer Hudson, have all had a turn in the judges' chairs.
The Voice UK made the switch to switch to ITV in 2017, with other stars coming into coach including Meghan Trainor and Gavin Rossadle. The last few series have Sir Tom, Will.IAm, Olly Murs and Anne-Marie as its coaches, with Tom and Will continuing their run of being on every run on both the BBC and ITV.
