The latest episode of The Voice to air on the 2025 TV schedule recapped all of the performances that got us to where we are in this season’s competition, and when the show returns April 28, it’ll be time for the Playoffs. The Voice coaches will have some help, as Sheryl Crow and LeAnn Rimes have been pegged as Mega Mentors, and it turns out the “All I Wanna Do” singer almost had a much larger role in the singing competition’s earlier days.
Adam Levine — who has made his comeback to The Voice’s Big Red Chairs for Season 27 — was among the OG coaching panel, along with Blake Shelton, Christina Aguilera and CeeLo Green. However, it seems the lineup almost included Sheryl Crow, who revealed per People that she was offered a spot but had to turn it down due to her family’s circumstances. She said:
I had a newborn and did not want to move back to L.A. Actually, that’s not true. He [son Levi] was about 2 years old and I didn’t want to move back to L.A. and so I didn’t do it. And I have not really entertained it since then because we have a busy life here and normalcy is really lovely.
