Desperate ‘The Voice’ Execs Offer Blake & Adam Massive Bonus To Stay On Show
Feb. 20 2018, Updated 4:30 p.m. ET
Season 14 of NBC’s hit reality singing competition The Voice starts soon and RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that executives are “freaking out” over the possibility of losing veteran judges Blake Shelton and Adam Levine!
According to a well-connected production insider, “After word got back to the higher-ups that Blake and Adam want out, they decided to offer them each a $5 million bonus to stay on the show until 2020.”
“They are literally begging them to stay because they fear that losing them would cause ratings to plummet!” added the insider.
As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Shelton, 41, and Levine, 38, are “strongly considering” leaving the show after this season is over.
“At first, execs were on the fence about both of them," revealed the insider, "but then fans went absolutely nuts and started to send emails and tweets to NBC expressing their strong opposition to them leaving."
So has the multi-million-dollar incentive changed Shelton and Levine’s mind?
Unfortunately, not yet!
“As of right now, Blake and Adam have neither accepted the offer, nor have they signed any deal," said the insider. "They are still weighing their options.”
