NBC has officially confirmed the reunion of original Voice mentors Christina Aguilera, Cee Lo Green, Blake Shelton and Adam Levine.

The network confirmed the news Friday, E! News reports. Paul Telegdy, President of Alternative and Late Night Programming for NBC released a statemnt coinciding with the news saying, “We locked in a plan several months ago to have the outstanding Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green rejoin Blake and Adam for cycle 5, and we're pleased to announce that the original four coaches are going to be back together in the fall. They're the reason this show was launched so strong for the first three cycles and we owe them a debt of gratitude."

Aguilera signed on to return to The Voice late last week while Green was said to still be in negotiations.

Shakira, who worked as a replacement for Aguilera while she was out promoting her new album Lotus, recently confirmed that she will not return for another season in the swivel chairs.
