FIRST LOOK at The Voice auditions: Sparks fly
Sparks fly between coaches Jessie J and Will.i.am as they squabble over contestants as The Voice returns this weekend.
During the first edition of the show, the pair are embroiled in a heated exchange after Jessie takes exception to the Black Eyed Peas star chipping in while she is trying to entice a hopeful to her team.
The programme returns on Saturday night for the first round of auditions in which the coaches choose the wannabes they would like on their team.
At one stage, Jessie grumbles: 'He never wants people to pick me.'
The dispute led to fellow panellist Sir Tom Jones wading in to sort out the argument after an audition was over.
But Will defended his decision to offer his view when a contestant seemed unable to make a decision between Jessie and O'Donoghue.
He said: 'They asked for my help - it's not passing out cookies.
'I think I did the right thing because he obviously couldn't make a decision.'
Former '90s singers Kavana and Cleo Higgins from Cleopatra are among the 'has-been' pop stars trying their luck for a second chance of chart fame.
The foursome's inclusion on the show has prompted questions whether former pop stars should be allowed to audition.
Anthony Kavana, 35, released two albums in the late '90s and had a No.8 single with I Can Make You Feel Good.
He wrote: 'Few things, I need to get off my chest...you'll see me on TV soon. On The Voice, BBC One. I didn't get through, but I gave it a good go.'
Since his pop career failed to make the impact he hoped, he has been songwriting and acting and was a runner-up in TV talent show Grease Is The Word in 2007.
However, Kavana isn't wasting too much time moping after losing out on The Voice, he's landed the lead role in The Sword And The Dope at London's Courtyard Theatre.
After the group disbanded in 2002 after 18 months together, Danny has been seen in reality shows The Games and Trust Me - I'm A Beauty Therapist.
Meanwhile, Cleo, 30, is performing without her sisters and Cleopatra bandmates Yonah and Zainam.
They enjoyed four top five UK singles and starred in two series of their own sitcom Cleopatra Comin' Atcha and Cleopara In The House on CITV.
Meanwhile, Nate, 33, is a more recent name, having arrived on the music scene in 2005 with his debut album Set The Tone.
Despite critical acclaim and award wins, his singles and albums failed to make much of an impact on the charts.
