John Legend<\/a> is preparing to take some time away from <\/span>The Voice<\/em><\/a>\u00a0— but\u00a0don’t assume he’ll be getting some down time. As the 45-year-old musician is preparing for the music competition’s semi-finals next week, he opens up to ET’s Cassie DiLaura about sitting out next season.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “We’ve always got so many things going on. I’ll be doing a lot of shows this summer and traveling overseas this summer,” Legend shares with ET. “I’ll be back\u2026 If only I were actually going to take a break!”<\/span><\/p>\n Legend, Chance the Rapper, and Dan + Shay will all be stepping away from the show next season, letting coach <\/span>Reba McEntire<\/a> return with <\/span>The Voice<\/span><\/em> alum\u00a0<\/span>Gwen Stefani<\/a>\u00a0and newcomers\u00a0<\/span>Snoop Dogg<\/a> and <\/span>Michael Bubl\u00e9<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “It’s exciting to incorporate some new people into<\/span> The Voice <\/span><\/em>family. Having Snoop here, he’s been here as a mentor before, but having him as a coach, I think is going to be a lot of fun and reinvigorate the show a bit,” Legend shares. “We’ve been around for 25 seasons and part of how we continue to stay fresh is introducing new coaches to <\/span>The Voice<\/span><\/em> family, and I think Michael and Snoop will do really well. And I’m excited that Gwen and Reba will be back too because they’re both wonderful coaches.”<\/span><\/p>\n Other stars who might have some coaching potential are Legend’s two eldest kiddos \u2014 Luna Stephens and Miles Stephens \u2014 whom he shares with wife Chrissy Teigen.<\/span><\/p>\n The kids recently visited <\/span>The Voice<\/span><\/em> set where they got to see the talent on Team Legend.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “They loved it. They really had a blast,” the proud dad says. “Their favorite — not being biased, but maybe being biased — was Nathan [Chester]\u2026 I feel like my team did well with my favorite advisors.”<\/span><\/p>\n Legend tells ET that while it was impressive that newcomer duo Dan + Shay had three contestants entering the semi-finals, “I really think every coach has an artist that I could see winning the show.”\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As for whether he’s desperate for a Team Legend win, the EGOT winner says, “It would feel great. I’m just rooting for the artist to be their best selves, honestly.”<\/span><\/p>\n
