LeAnn Rimes is apparently in the running to become a coach on The Voice UK after Olly Murs' shocking removal from the panel.
The 41-year-old American country music musician is rumored to be meeting with ITV "early" to talk about serving as a mentor for the next show.
Following singer Olly's revelation that he had been fired from The Voice after six years, there was speculation that the program had severed its relationship with coach Anne-Marie.
LeAnn Rimes is purportedly in the running to replace the star-studded panel during the "show refresh," and she is 'excited' about the possibility.
LeAnn Rimes is meeting with ITV to discuss potentially becoming a coach on The Voice UK. It's early in the process, but they believe they may strike a nice deal, an insider told The Sun.
LeAnn, whose full name is Margaret LeAnn Rimes Cibrian, has more than 40 charting singles to her credit since her 1996 hit "Blue" made her a sensation in the country music industry when she was just 13 years old.
Just last week, LeAnn Rimes revealed that she underwent a life-saving surgery. After a bad pap smear, the country star underwent a LEEP surgery to remove precancerous cells. These days, Rimes is advocating for yearly testing and early detection.
LeAnn Rimes has sold over 48 million units globally and has worked with major A-list celebrities like Joss Stone, Stevie Nicks, and Elton John.
The Grammy-winning singer is currently preparing for an incredible show on May 8 at London's O2 Arena to cap up her The Story So Far... tour. Her alleged participation on The Voice UK coincides with Olly's revelation that, following six years on the celebrity-filled panel, he was fired from the show.
The celebrity said in September that the choice had left him "gutted and shocked," and he swore not to "bulls***" his fans by asserting that it was his decision.
After successfully guiding his selected musicians, Olly twice emerged victorious from the competition during his time on the show. He joined the panel in 2017, and since then, he has shared the stage with Will.I.Am, Meghan Trainor, Sir Tom Jones, and Anne-Marie.
It was announced shortly after Olly's dismissal that The Voice has severed its relationship with 32-year-old Anne-Marie before the 2024 season in order to give the program a "refresh."
It was said that in order to appeal to a younger audience, the bosses intended to bring in new talents from the business.
