In the photo collection, Reba, 68, posed with singer John Legend, 45, Chance the Rapper, 30, and country singing duo Dan Smyers, 36, and Shay Mooney, 31.

The country singer seemed to be mocking her co-stars as she spoke to them on a bullhorn.

As the collection continued, Dan & Shay were caught on camera enjoying themselves while sitting in the red chairs.

In 2023, the country duo joined the judge’s panel for Season 25.

Although this is the first time a pair will sit on the panel, they served as Battle Advisors on Blake Shelton’s team in 2020.

THE COMMENTS

In the comments section, viewers praised the Seven Minutes In Heaven singer while sharing their concerns for the first-timers.

“Not keen on this Dan and Shay situation. Why? Who are they really?” a critic trolled.

“Yes! #TeamReba all the way!” one fan cheered.

“I’m not sure about this Dan and Shay thing,” another critic added.

“Outside of Reba, the rest is kind of meh. She’s the real deal!” another fan gushed.

“Not liking the new judges sorry,” a fourth person wrote:

“Go #TeamReba! You should have broken up that row of males and put Reba in the middle! She looks outnumbered! However, she’s pretty feisty! So I’m not worried!” a commentator chimed.

The new season of The Voice begins February 26th on NBC and will stream on Peacock.

PAST JUDGES

Rumors circulated that former coach Gwen Stefani, 54, would rejoin the panel.

However, the Don’t Speak singer was not announced in the new cast list.

Near the end of September 2023, the 54-year-old hitmaker returned with her co-stars for Season 24 of The Voice.

During Reba’s debut, Gwen cozied up to and sang with her, John, and Niall Horan, 30.

The Tremors scream queen filled in for the empty seat left by Gwen’s husband, Blake, 47, who retired from the show at the end of Season 23.

At the time, Blake left the talent competition show to spend more time for his family.

Throughout February, the God’s Country singer has been busy promoting his Back to the Honky Tonk tour and performed at Little Caesars Arena in Detroit, Michigan.

Meanwhile, Blake’s wife has been preparing to take the stage again soon with her former band, No Doubt, at Coachella in April.

Gwen will reunite with her ex-bandmates – bassist Tony Kanal, guitarist Tom Dumont, and drummer Adrian Young – as they have not performed together in almost a decade.
