Shakira will not be returning to “The Voice” next season. She has now confirmed it in an interview with Access Hollywood, Reuters is reporting. The Colombian singer and first time coach on the show had been rumored to be stepping down.

She revealed the news after the Tuesday episode of The Voice and said she wants to spend more time with her child and finish her new album.
“I was really struggling with the fact that I had to leave my nest with my little baby,” she added. “So now I need to stay with him for a little bit and also work on my next album. You never know, maybe (I will be back) for the future seasons.” she said, leaving the door open.
The 36 year old was added to the show after the departure of Christina Aguilera and Usher replaced Cee Lo Green, who had recently announced that he is starting his own TV show.
Shakira stated to US Weekly, “I’m not going to be able to do next season because I have to get back to my motherhood and also get back to the studio, the recording studio, to finish my album, the one that I started working on before I had to deliver a baby and before I took this gig with The Voice,”
“The Voice” averages 14 million viewers each week, which is better than rival music competition show “American Idol” and is currently on its fourth season, which ends on June 18.
Christina Aguilera will be returning as a coach for next year to take Shakira’s place.

As you can tell by the below video footage, Justin channels his inner Don Draper and he looks mighty fine doing it.
