Kylie Minogue returns to The Voice for the first time in four years to help mentor Sir Tom Jones’ team
KYLIE Minogue is returning to The Voice UK - as a mentor alongside Sir Tom Jones.
The 49-year-old, who was a coach on The Voice UK with Sir Tom on the 2014 series, joined her friend to give advice to Team Tom ahead of their crucial Knockouts performances next month.
The two superstars shared their knowledge during piano rehearsals when each act performed for them.
Speaking about Kylie’s involvement, Sir Tom said: “I have known Kylie for a long time so it is nice to have someone you know personally giving you help.
“It is reassuring having a friend as well as such an experienced professional.
“It was tremendous working with her when we were both coaches on The Voice UK in the past. She is an accomplished artist and a really lovely person.”
Kylie was just as excited, saying: “It’s so great to be back amongst The Voice family as a guest mentor for Tom Jones.
“I love working with Sir Tom and have been blown away by the talent in his team this series.
“What a pleasure to work with such a great group of contestants and it’s fair to say I’ll be keenly following the rest of the series. Good luck Team Tom!"
Last week it was announced Craig David was pairing up with Olly Murs as his mentor while the Black Eyed Peas’ apl.de.ap and Taboo joined fellow member will.i.am.

Olly - who joined the show as a main coach for the first time earlier this year – was delighted with the help, saying: "Craig is amazing, we have known each other a long time. I have been a fan of him as an artist from an early age and it is great I can now call him a friend.
"We did a charity trek together several years ago and formed a bond then. I love his sense of humour but most importantly as an artist I love his music.
"He's also got so much experience in the industry and with that he will really give me some great constructive feedback on my acts and help me make the right decision."
Jennifer Hudson’s mentor will be revealed soon.
Meanwhile Kylie’s latest single Dancing is out now while her 14th studio album Golden is released on April 6.
