Michael Bumble's Reasons For Rejecting Offers To Be The Coach Of The Voice US

JAKARTA - Michael Bumble joined the lineup of coaches, or coaches for The Voice US season 26th. Before finally agreeing, he admitted that he had rejected this offer about 15 times.

This was conveyed by Bumble to Today, that he actually had a inferior feeling. He always refused because he felt that many talent search participants could sing better than him.

My favorite part is, fortunately we are not a judge. Another show has a jury, and we are coaches. My reason for saying that is because most singers are better off than me, and I have no place to judge anyone," he said as quoted by NME, September 25.

In The Voice this season, Michael Bumble will be side by side with several other top names, namely Snoop Dogg, Reba McEntire and Gwen Stefani. He became the first Canadian artist to become a coach at The Voice, although he has also been an advisor to the Blake Shelton team at The Voice season three ago.

Michael Buble feels that trust as coach will help singers to develop. Instead of assessing their performance, he feels more satisfied with sharing knowledge and experience as one of the senior singers.

To be able to train them and realize the fantasy of having a career that I have and then getting satisfaction to help others achieve it? That's a cool part," he said.
