He’s been spinning his chair in the name of talent since 2013, but Ricky Wilson has now confirmed that the next series of The Voice will be his last.
The Kaiser Chiefs rocker says that he won’t follow the show as it moves from BBC to ITV – as he doesn’t think that show bosses will want him.
Confirming his departure after the next series, he told 3am: ‘This is my last one anyway, yeah. I was going to bow out gracefully.
‘I don’t think ITV would want me. They would want to have a totally new show.’
The musician also defended the BBC’s unsuccessful battle to keep the show, and described competition between the corporation and ITV as ‘nonsense.’
