The Seven Network has announced that Jason Derulo will be joining The Voice in 2023.
The artist behind chart-topping hits such as Talk Dirty, Ridin’ Solo, Whatcha Say and Savage Love will take his place on a spinning red chair alongside returning Voice coaches Jessica Mauboy, Rita Ora and Guy Sebastian. Host Sonia Kruger is also set to return.
In recent years, Derulo staked a claim as the King of TikTok, with more than 57 million followers. The 33-year-old Los Angeles-based artist, who has sold more than 250 million singles worldwide, is teasing a fifth studio album is on the way, his first in eight years.
Derulo said: “I’ve always loved The Voice, and Australia happens to be one of my favourite places in the world. I can’t wait to hear all the amazing talent down under!”

“Jason is a sensational addition to our line-up of superstar coaches Jess, Rita and Guy and we can’t wait to see who they turn their iconic red chairs for this season.”
