The 44-year-old No Doubt singer has signed on as a coach for the seventh season of NBC’s hit singing reality show, joining Adam Levine, Blake Shelton and another newcomer – Pharrell Williams. The two new judges will replace current stand-ins Shakira and Usher.

Aguilera confirmed the news on Twitter Tuesday.

So excited to have you join #TheVoice squad @GwenStefani!” she wrote. “Welcome to our crazy fam!”

The “Hollaback Girl” singer also posted an Instagram shot holding a microphone and making a peace sign with her fingers – in the style of the “Voice” logo to confirm.

“It’s true!” she wrote as a caption.

Stefani signed a one-year contract, TMZ reported, with Aguilera is set to claim her spot back for the following season after giving birth to her second child, a baby girl with fiancé Matt Rutler.

The No Doubt singer also recently gave birth to her third child in February- another son named Apollo. She’s already mom to Kingston, 8, and Zuma, 6, with husband Gavin Rossdale.

Host Carson Daly is confident Stefani will hold her own on the show.

“She’s friends with the other coaches but has a strong opinion, which is also important,” he previously told People magazine.

“They can’t all just be too lovey out there. So I think she’d be a solid choice.”
