The Voice announced that their newest Mega Mentor is going to be Taylor Swift on Monday, September 16 on Twitter.

This is not the first time Swift joins the show as a mentor. She previously participated in the show during season seven.

Swift will assist the coaches as they guide the artists and prepare the teams for October’s Knockout Rounds. After that, she’ll be giving more personalized responses to artists that survive the Knockouts, continuing to work with all four coaches.

Other mentors for season 17 include Normani (Team Kelly), Will.i.am (Team Gwen), Usher (Team Legend) and Darius Rucker (Team Blake). It’s the first season without long-running coach Adam Levine, who left after 16 seasons.
