NBC’s The Voice has set itself a part from other talent compeition reality series after American Idol made the genre an extremely popular series idea. After four years and nine seasons there has been a lot of talent go on and off the stage; however, one of the most interesting parts about the show is that a lot of fans watch not because of the singing, but because of the celebrity coaches. The “bromance” between unlikely duo country star Blake Shelton and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine has become notorious in the media and watching the relationships and banter between all of the super famous coaches is one of the most entertaining components of The Voice. One thing is for sure, NBC must have a huge payroll budget to secure these big names, taking away time they would be in the studio or performing. Coaching on The Voice is not what is packing these stars’ bank accounts, but it is certainly helping. Check out how much each of the eight coaches who have appeared on The Voice are worth!
