[POLL] CHRISTINA AGUILERA, GWEN OR SHAKIRA: VOTE FOR YOUR FAVORITE 'VOICE' COACH



Wait, we already have to say goodbye to Gwen Stefani on The Voice? On Tuesday (Oct. 14), it was announced that original coach Christina Aguilera -- who sat out the last two seasons, while Stefani and Shakira kept her swivel chair warm -- will return for season 8 early next year.

Only Adam Levine and Blake Shelton have stuck around for every iteration of the show, with CeeLo, Usher and Pharrell Williams trading off, and this latest swap has us wondering: Who is the best female judge to grace the Voice stage?

Aguilera is the veteran, putting in four seasons already, with her fifth on the way. Shakira coached on seasons 4 and 6, while Stefani has barely clocked three weeks in her red chair. In our ranking of all the singing competition judges -- which was published before Stefani's Voice debut -- Shakira came in at No. 11, while Aguilera was No. 18. But who is your favorite? Or do you have a better suggestion for the fourth female seat in the future? Vote below or share your write-in picks, and make sure to explain your choice in the comments section.

[NEWS] CHRISTINA AGUILERA RETURNS TO HER THRONE ON SEASON 8 OF #THEVOICE


After taking off two consecutive seasons -- during which time Shakira and Gwen Stefani filled in for her -- original coach Christina Aguilera is returning to The Voice.

Since she last sat in the giant red swivel chair, Aguilera got engaged to Matt Rutler earlier this year and gave birth to their daughter, Summer Rain Rutler, in Aug. 2014.

Vote: What's the Best Collaboration Between 'Voice' Coaches?

When Aguilera returns to The Voice, she'll rejoin longtime coaches Blake Shelton and Adam Levine -- but this will be the first season she's competing against Pharrell.

Pharrell, incidentally, is currently finishing up work on Stefani's upcoming third solo album. The Voice: It's just one big happy family, right?

At least for the most part. Cee Lo Green officially quit The Voice earlier this year, but given his recent parade of troubles, it's safe to guess NBC wasn't too eager to welcome him back.
