Kelly Rowland shares post about The Voice UK

The Voice UK announced season 14’s celebrity coaches at the start of the month in a June 3 social media post.

“Kelly… can you handle this? 😏,” the caption began, making a clever play at Destiny’s Child’s 2001 hit single, “Bootylicious.” The post continued, “Meet the Coaches newest recruit when The Voice UK returns ✌️.”

Rowland’s photo appeared in the announcement, along with a shot of Tom Jones, will.i.am, and Tom Fletcher & Danny Jones, also known as British pop stars McFly.

All appeared in an Instagram Reels post that the Mea Culpa actress posted to her Instagram Stories on Monday.

“Have you heard the news?” was written over the video, which channeled a Mean Girls inspired whisper to the tune of Missy Elliott’s “Pass That Dutch” — the song famously associated with viewers learning all the juicy details about The Plastics.

In the video Rowland shared, the McFlys whispered to each other, making surprised faces before sharing the news with a stunned Jones, who then told will.i.am before he passed the information along to the “Dilemma” star.

The clip ended with her making a funny face before she smiled and walked off.

The Voice UK isn’t Rowland’s first go at lending her expertise to a British singing competition — she also had a hand in putting Little Mix together on The X Factor UK.

“I just remember seeing all the ladies, and I don’t know if it’s because of my DC days and just feeling what that chemistry would feel like, but I knew what they felt like in my soul, and I felt like I knew what they would look like altogether and I went off my instincts, to be honest,” Rowland said in a November 2022 interview.

Rowland has also appeared on The X Factor US, The X Factor UK Interactive, and The Voice AU.

Netflix

Building the Band

Additionally, Rowland will serve as a guest judge on Netflix’s upcoming music competition series Building the Band. Contestants will have to come together to be bandmates without ever seeing one another.

Prior to Payne's death, Rowland told PEOPLE he was "absolutely hilarious" during their time working on the show. "I didn't know how funny he was, so I'm getting to know him, and he is so cool," she said in August 2024.

Building the Band premieres on Netflix on July 9.
