Jennifer Hudson to join 'The Voice' as coach in season 13

Actress-singer Jennifer Hudson is all set to join "The Voice" as a coach in season 13.

The 35-year-old singer, who was a finalist on the third season of "American Idol", says it is an emotional moment for her to be back on a reality show as a judge.

"In tears thinking of what this means and represents to me and knowing and walking the journey! Wow, who would have thought after being a contestant, that one day, I would be sitting in one of those chairs from the UK to the US! Only God! Oh but I made it!" Hudson wrote on Instagram.
 

The "Dreamngirls" actress will team up with returning coach Miley Cyrus and series regulars Blake Shelton and Adam Levine.

Hudson served as a coach on the most recent season of The Voice in the UK and won the show with her singer Mo Adeniran in April.
