Tom Jones sends fans into meltdown as he announces new The Voice guest judge: ‘Great pairing!’
The Voice fans have been left delighted after Tom Jones revealed he will be joined by Hannah Waddingham to help him with the upcoming callbacks.
After weeks of auditions and the judges fighting over who they want to join their teams, Saturday night will see the return of those who were successful in their auditions.
The judges will now need to narrow down their teams and put their best singers forward going into the next round.
Singer Griff will be joining LeAnn Rimes and Little Mix star Perrie Edwards will be joining McFly members Tom Fletcher and Danny Jones.
Making a show first, Will.i.am will be using AI Fyilicia to help make a decision as to who will continue in the competition.
However, it was Jones’ addition of Waddingham that sent fans into a frenzy on social media, with many calling them the “perfect pairing”.
The official The Voice Instagram account posted an image of the pair smiling and penned: ”The amazing Hannah Waddingham joins Sir Tom Jones this Saturday for the Callbacks!
“See you at 8.20 pm on ITV1, ITVX and STV #TheVoiceUK,” leaving the singing legend to comment a clapping emoji underneath.
Fans were quick to join the comment section as one noted: “Can’t wait, what a wonderful combination”
“Two icons,” another simply stated before a third added: “That’s a lovely photo. You both look fab! Looking forward to the show on Saturday, it’s going to be great. Come on Team Tom, you can do it!”
“Fantastic! Sir Tom & Hannah are a perfect pairing! Can’t wait,” someone else penned before a fifth said: “What a pair to have to be your coaches.”
Another wrote: ”Tom and Hannah – Wow, what a masterclass!! Perfect match. Can’t wait to see Hannah sharing her incredible skills and positive and adorable chaotic energy.” (sic)
Her appearance with Jones comes after Ted Lasso fans rejoiced after it was revealed the hit series will return for series four last month.
The judges on the show often talk about their singing careers, with Jones recently opening up about finding it odd that he is still able to sing.
