Matt Terry wants to be coach on The Voice

OHMYGOSSIP — Matt Terry wants to become a coach on ‘The Voice’.
The ‘X Factor’ winner may have a shot to fame last year when he was crowned the champion of the singing show, but he has admitted he’s got his eye on the rival series’ judging panel after Olly Murs was recently announced as the new panellist.
Speaking to the Daily Star newspaper, the 24-year-old hunk said: “I would love to be a coach [on ‘The Voice’]. I loved being on ‘The X Factor’ as a contestant so much it would be great to explore further and I know what they’re going through.”
And Matt doesn’t think Simon Cowell – who was annoyed when he found out Olly had joined ‘The Voice’ – would mind if he jumped ship because he’ll always be his act.
He explained: “He set up meetings for me in Miami, he invited me to his summer parties, charity events and put me in touch with some great contacts.”
However, Olly hasn’t had the same response as he claimed that he hasn’t heard from the 58-year-old music mogul since it was announced he’d be joining the show.
The 33-year-old singer said: “I haven’t heard from Simon. But you know, if he’s upset, then… I don’t believe in rivalries. ‘X Factor’ was an incredible part of my life and now I’m taking the next chapter and becoming a coach here on ‘The Voice’. I’m loving it and there’s no hard feelings from me, anyway. If he wants to call me, call me.”
But, despite the suspected animosity between him and Simon, Olly can’t wait to get stuck into the show and is determined to do all he can to help his acts win the series.
He said: “I’m absolutely buzzing about being a coach on ‘The Voice UK’
and can’t wait to sit in the big red chair alongside will, Jennifer and Tom.
“I’m excited to mentor new artists and without doubt, I’m in it to WIN!”
Olly was chosen as a mentor on ‘The Voice’ by bosses after they axed Gavin Rossdale – who has kids Kingston, 11, Zuma, nine, and Apollo, three, with his former partner Gwen Stefani, as well as 28-year-old Daisy Lowe with Pearl Lowe – from the programme earlier this year as they didn’t feel like he had the right energy.
Jennifer, will.i.am and Sir Tom were also involved in last year’s series.
