Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong became the latest rock star announced to pop up on The Voice, as a mentor. The network tweeted, “What goes together better than Billie Joe Armstrong and Christina Aguilera? Um, NOTHING!”
The panel of judges includes Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Maroon 5’s Adam Levine and country singer Blake Shelton. Carson Daly is host.
Past guest mentors have included Mary J. Blige and Michael Buble.
With “American Idol” shaking up its judge’s panel and hiring Mariah Carey and “X Factor” nabbing Britney Spears to dole out advice, the competition to get the biggest rock stars is cut-throat among the top music contest programs.“ “The Voice“’s new season starts on Sept. 10.
