The Aussie pop princess follows in the footsteps of her sister Dannii as a reality singing contest coach.

Kylie Minogue will replace Jessie J on the upcoming series of The Voice the BBC have revealed.

Kylie will be joining Sir Tom Jones and Will.I.Am who have both signed on for the third series of BBC 1’s reality TV singing contest.

"I'm very excited," said Kylie. "I love the concept of the show and have been an avid viewer of both series.

"Will I be competitive? Probably more than even I imagine! Watch this space!"

Her sister and fellow pop star, Dannii Minogue, has previously been a judge on both the UK and Australian versions of rival show The X Factor.

The BBC are still looking for a replacement for the fourth coach, The Script frontman Danny O'Donoghue, who also stepped down earlier this year.

Series 3 of The Voice will air on BBC 1 in January of next year.
