Blake Shelton captured the hearts of America as one of the coaches from The Voice, giving him a chance in the spotlight outside of his music.
Now he’ll get another shot, this time as host of Saturday Night Live.
The country star will host the Jan. 24 episode of the sketch comedy show. He’ll double as the musical guest, promoting new album Bringing Back the Sunshine.

It’s both Shelton’s and Sia’s first times on SNL.
