As fans are aware, Christina left the popular show ‘The Voice’ as coach early this year. She had appeared in six seasons of the show as a coach and felt she was becoming stagnant as she said:

“I can’t stay in a stagnant place for too long, which is why I think the position I was in with the Television just became very stifling. I need movement. I need to go explore, be an artist, create and transform.”

When ‘The Voice’ first aired in 2011, Christina was one of the original coaches, along with Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, and Cee Lo Green.
