The new season of The Voice is titled “Battle of Champions” and while that actually refers to the coaches, there are some former champions making a return to the show.

Kelly Clarkson, Adam Levine, and John Legend are the three coaches this season and during a special “In-Season All-Star Competition” in the Knockouts Round, they’ll each bring back two artists to represent them.

Here’s how NBC describes the new round: “Each Coach brings back two fan-favorite Artists from their teams in previous seasons to compete. These all-stars represent their former Coaches as they battle in head-to-head sing-offs. The Coach with the most sing-off wins is guaranteed a second finalist in the finale.”

Former coach CeeLo Green will be back to determine the winner of each All-Star Showdown.

It does not appear that any of the returning artists will be eligible for the competition this season. They’ll just be helping their coach bring an additional artist to the finale.

So, who is returning?
