Carson Daly returns to host the nationwide search for new vocal talent. Celebrity coaches Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine, Christina Aguilera and Blake Shelton guide hopefuls through the three stages of the competition -- the blind auditions, the battle round and the live stage shows -- during which their numbers are whittled down until there is one winner, who receives a recording contract and $100,000. Popular musicians, including Lionel Richie and Kelly Clarkson, lend their expertise as guest mentors during the battle round.
