In an exclusive statement to PEOPLE, Bublé expressed his excitement about reprising his role as a coach on the show, saying, “This is the best job I’ve ever had. Going to work every day is a joy, and I’m so thrilled to be back for Season 28.” He shared his empathy for the contestants, understanding their aspirations and the challenges they face in pursuing their dreams. Bublé sees his role as a coach as a way to support and guide aspiring artists in their journey towards success.
Reflecting on his previous experiences on the show, Bublé spoke about the incredible talent showcased on ‘The Voice’ and the fulfilling experience of being part of the process. He highlighted the show’s focus on the artists and the opportunity it provides to help individuals achieve their musical aspirations. Bublé initially joined ‘The Voice’ as a coach in season 26, where he achieved success with his first-ever contestant, Sofronio Vasquez, who emerged as the winner that year.
Despite his initial reservations about judging other vocalists, Bublé’s positive experiences on the show have led him to return for multiple seasons. He emphasised the difference between being a coach on ‘The Voice’ and a judge on other talent shows, explaining that as a coach, he gets to mentor and guide contestants rather than critique them. This shift in perspective has allowed him to fully embrace the role and find fulfillment in supporting emerging talents.
Having previously won the show in a past season, Bublé is determined to continue his winning streak in the upcoming season. With his dedication to nurturing talent and his passion for music, he is eager to once again take on the challenge of coaching contestants towards achieving their goals. Fans can catch Bublé in action on ‘The Voice,’ which airs on Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC.
Bublé’s return as a coach for the upcoming season has already generated buzz among fans and the music industry. His unique blend of expertise, empathy, and enthusiasm is expected to make a significant impact on the contestants and viewers alike. As he gears up for another season on ‘The Voice,’ Bublé remains committed to supporting aspiring artists and contributing to the vibrant music scene showcased on the show.
