The Voice Kids season 12 launches on TF1 with returning coaches

The twelfth season of The Voice Kids has launched on TF1, hosted by Nikos Aliagas. The coaching panel remains unchanged, featuring Soprano, Patrick Fiori, Santa, and M. Pokora. The season premiere attracted between 2.24 and 2.60 million viewers, securing significant market shares, particularly among younger demographics.

Soprano, entering his fifth season as a coach, described himself as a ‘coach of heart’ who prioritizes emotional connection over competition. He noted that his deep empathy for the young talents can sometimes lead to moments of silence when he is moved by their performances.

Adding to the production team, singer and content creator Styleto has joined the show in a new role. Describing herself as a ‘big sister’ or ‘good friend,’ her mission is to provide emotional support and help the young contestants manage their performance anxiety.

Among the participants is 10-year-old Joy, a singer originally from La Réunion, who is set to appear in the blind auditions. She shared that she performed a Michel Sardou song as a tribute to a loved one, despite experiencing significant stress during the process.
