She’s back! Gwen makes her return for the third time to The Voice with season 12 kicking off tonight on NBC with the Blind Auditions. She joined alongside veteran coaches Adam Levine, Alicia Keys and Blake Shelton. For the first couple of weeks, we’ll be treated to contestants vying for a spot on the show with a select few choosing to move on with Team Gwen. As the season progresses, we’ll cheer on Gwen and her artist through the Battle Rounds, Knockout Rounds and Live Shows.
As we’ve done with previous seasons, we’ll post highlights from each episode, including live Tweets, photos and videos, in-between the east and west coast airings. If you’re wanting to avoid spoilers, we recommend heading back to the site after the west coast airing to discuss the episode with us.
