Fans of The Voice won’t get a chance to sing “Since U Been Gone” to Kelly Clarkson — because she’s coming back next season.
Kelly, Adam Levine and John Legend recently faced off in season 29’s Battle of the Champions, which Adam won. Kelly has now been announced as a returning coach for season 30. Adam has also been confirmed as returning for season 30, which will air this fall.
Kelly’s schedule should be a little easier to manage this fall, since she announced in February that the current season of her Emmy-winning chat show, The Kelly Clarkson Show, will be her last.
Season 30 will mark Adam’s 19th on The Voice. It will be Kelly’s 11th season on the panel. Those seasons were nonconsecutive, though, because both of them have left and returned to the show over the years.

The programming lineup for the 30th annual American Black Film Festival has been revealed, featuring screenings, panels and conversations with names including Regina King, Chlöe Bailey, Lynn Whitfield, Lucien Laviscount, Anna Diop and Coco Jones, as well as the cast of Power Book III: Raising Kanan.
Kicking off the festivities is a May 27 screening of Peacock’s Strung, which follows a talented violinist who “takes a prestigious job as a music tutor for the gifted daughter of an influential and enigmatic family,” according to a press release. Directed by Malcolm D. Lee, the feature film stars Chlöe, Lynn, Lucien and Coco, who will participate in a panel discussion the following day.
Fans of Raising Kanan also have an event on the slate: There will be an inside look at season 5 of the show, which premieres on Starz on June 12; it’s unclear who will attend the accompanying panel.
Regina will discuss her journey in film and television during a panel scheduled on May 28, while Taye Diggs will speak with fans the following day about “career longevity, financial planning, and building lasting success in the entertainment industry,” as well as personal health.
All American stars Michael Evans Behling, Greta Onieogou, Bre-Z and Kareem Grimes will then come together on May 30 to discuss the series’ biggest moments ahead of its final season.
ABFF will take place in Miami Beach May 27–31 under the theme Homecoming. The lineup also includes a free screening of Brown Sugar, as well as a comedy show headlined by Zainab Johnson and featuring Tisha Campbell.
