With the final line-up for The Voice announced today, it has been confirmed today by some very official BBC-types that will.i.am is to be joined on talent show by Welsh crooner Tom Jones, Price Tag singer Jessie J and The Script singer Danny O’Donoghue.
However, this latest addition hasn’t seemed to go down well with Will Young, who was rumoured to be in talks to be part of the new show's judging panel.
Last night, the Jealousy singer took to Twitter to vent his fury:
will_young31: Words escape me. Life is sometimes a bitch
To clear up any confusion about his initial tweet – he could have just had a sore throat and lost his voice for all we know - sent another tweet to his followers.
will_young31: The voice came, the voice went. They wanted to go more rock. Should have dusted off my Leather jacket! Hey ho
Not one to get too bitter about a setback, he’s making jokes about it already, saying that he’s been in touch with some of rock’s greats because they’re sad about being dropped from the show too
will_young31 Hang on … Just got jimmy page on the Line. I’m commiserating him.
will_young31 I’m holding a seance with Hendrix. Hang on….. I can turn this around people. I can turn this around!!!!
Oh dear. Do you think that Will Young isn’t rocky enough to judge a singing competition? Do you think that Danny O’Donoghue is more rocky than Will? Let us know what you think.
