What have the judges said?

Danny Jones

The McFly star was victorious on The Voice Kids last year after his mentee, 13-year-old Sam Wilkinson, was announced as the champion.

"Pixie won it every time before, so you start doubting yourself," admitted the singer and guitarist from Bolton.

"You start thinking, am I looking for the wrong thing, am I coaching wrong? But then I stuck to what I knew best, which was Sam."

So what does he listen out for during the auditions?

"When someone can hold the energy of a room, that's when it's like... OK!", he said.

Paloma Faith

London-born singer Paloma - known for hits such as Only Love Can Hurt Like This - has also worked as a coach on the main series of The Voice, back in 2016.

So, how does The Voice Kids compare? "I prefer it," she says. "I'm having the time of my life. I feel like the main show gave me a lot of anxiety, but this gives me pure joy in bucketloads."

"When we are kids, we have purity and our talents can really shine," she added.

She says she just wants it to be a fun experience for the kids: "It's not supposed to be a defining moment for any of them. I wouldn't do a show that was giving that pressure to kids."

Pixie Lott

The Bromley-born singer was only 19 when she went straight to number one with her debut single Mama Do.

Pixie said: "It's amazing. My team is so different this year. Different stories, different backgrounds, different styles."

And she also has this tip for kids who want to be performers: "I always just say, as advice to young people - even to myself now - just go for auditions and opportunities.

"You never know where they might lead, you never know who you might meet. You might meet one of your best friends, that you do things together with when you're older, work-wise."

Will.i.am

The Black Eyed Peas singer has been working on The Voice UK since 2012, and has starred in every series of The Voice Kids.

"The other show is great but there's something that the kids bring that adults forgot and that is just life and no extra agendas, fun... Kids know how to play!", says the LA-born star.

Will.i.am is a busy man; as well as being a rapper, singer and songwriter, he's also a record producer, DJ and entrepreneur - so how does he chill?

"What I really like are spa days. Because a spa day is still productive. You're still working on something. You're working on your body, you're working on relaxing your muscles, getting a pedicure and manicure."
