Blake Shelton may have just gotten a leg up on the new season of The Voice, as Brad Paisley is reportedly on board to serve as an adviser to Team Blake this year.

According to Us Weekly, Paisley is one of four new celebrity advisers joining the hit reality singing competition for its upcoming ninth season. He will work with Shelton's picks to prepare them for the battle rounds after the blind auditions are finished, while Selena Gomez is said to be working with Gwen Stefani's team.

Missy Elliott will serve as Pharrell Williams' team adviser, and legendary rocker John Fogerty will work with Adam Levine's team, according to the article.

Paisley has reportedly served as more than just an adviser to Shelton. “Brad was a good friend to Blake, and it was great for Blake to have him there — especially considering everything Blake is going through," an unnamed source tells Us. Shelton and Miranda Lambert announced their divorce on July 20, and Shelton returned to work on the set of The Voice just days later.

Paisley is no stranger to reality singing competitions, having served on the panel of judges on ABC's Rising Star in 2014. He joins a long line of stars from across genres who have shared their advice with young hopefuls on The Voice, including Lionel Richie, Ellie Goulding, Meghan Trainor, Stevie Nicks, Gavin Rossdale and Alicia Keys.
