Singer-songwriter Paloma, whose hit songs include Upside Down, Make Your Own Kind of Music and I’ve Gotta Be Me, is replacing Jessie J and will join returnees Pixie Lott, Danny Jones and will.i.am to search for the next big pint-sized pop star.
As the pre-recorded Blind Audition shows begin this week, with youngsters between seven and 14 taking to the stage, here, mum-of-one Paloma, 38, tells TV Times why she’s having an absolute ball in her new role…
Why did you want to join The Voice Kids?
I just love children. My original life plan was to be a teacher. My mum was a primary-school teacher and, from the age of 14 until I was about 25, I did lots of voluntary work. I’d either go into my mum’s school to help out or, as I was trained as a contemporary dancer, I’d hold dance workshops with kids who were deaf or blind. I worked with autistic children, too.
