Watch Queen Latifah Turn ‘The Voice’ Into Her Royal Court in Season 30 Trailer: ‘I’m the Queen and Together We Can Command ‘The Voice!’

Queen Latifah's entrance into The Voice as a coach for the upcoming 30th season has already captivated viewers. In a preview of the show's trailer, the hip-hop icon can't contain her enthusiasm for a contestant's haunting rendition of "I Put a Spell on You." Latifah praises the contestant's raspy yet beautiful voice and his commanding presence on the song.

With a flourish, she declares, "I'm the Queen and together we can command The Voice!" The studio audience, wearing flashy crowns, cheers her on, while the other judges appear intimidated.

Latifah's arrival on the show is a significant development, as she joins returning coaches Adam Levine and Kelly Clarkson, along with newcomer "Worst Way" singer Riley Green. Levine, a four-time winner, expresses concern about the show's dynamics under new leadership, while Clarkson jokes about her past coaching experience. Latifah, with her commanding presence, seems poised to make her mark on the show.

Adding to the intrigue, the trailer hints that Green's good looks and charm may attract extra attention from his fellow contestants. Latifah, noticing Green's appeal, playfully declares, "Riley's a whole vibe." Returning coach Clarkson, known for her competitive spirit, assures viewers that she has no advice for the new panelists, even going so far as to offer a hair strand to a contestant if she's picked. The three-night season 30 premiere airs on Sept. 21 at 8 p.m. ET on NBC and streams the following day on Peacock.
