This Country Star Rejected Offer to Serve as ‘The Voice’ Coach

This Country Star Rejected Offer to Serve as ‘The Voice’ Coach

Sheryl Crow recently revealed that when The Voice first launched, she turned down an offer to serve as a coach.

Crow says the timing wasn’t right for her to join the hit NBC reality singing competition when it first began airing back in 2011.

“I had a newborn and did not want to move back to L.A.,” she told People while attending the “A Country Thing Happened on the Way to Cure Parkinson’s” event in Nashville on April 16.

Crow’s son Levi is now 14 years old. She is also mom to son Wyatt, 18.

“Actually, that’s not true. He [son Levi] was about 2 years old and I didn’t want to move back to L.A., and so I didn’t do it. And I have not really entertained it since then because we have a busy life here and normalcy is really lovely,” the “Soak Up the Sun” singer adds.

However, in an ironic twist of fate, Crow joins The Voice this season as a Mega Mentor alongside fellow country superstar LeAnn Rimes.

“I loved mentoring. It was a blast, and I absolutely adore [The Voice coach] Kelsea [Ballerini],” Crow explains.

This season marks Rimes’ first time on the U.S. version of the show. The “How Do I Live” singer has served as a coach on both the Australian and U.K. versions of the competition.

Crow, on the other hand, previously acted as a team advisor for longtime coach Blake Shelton during Season 4 in 2013. Team Blake member Danielle Bradbery ultimately won that season, becoming the youngest competitor to do so at the age of 16.

The Voice airs Mondays at 8PM ET on NBC.
