will.i.am may have just confirmed he's sticking with The Voice UK as it moves to ITV for the next series (scroll down for more on that), but it seems Ricky Wilson has ruled himself out.
The Kaiser Chiefs singer - who won the show twice during his three years as a coach, including with this year's Kevin Simm - told us he'll be watching from home instead, "through gritted teeth".
Quote Message: I'm actually a bit nervous about how jealous I'm going to be when I see who's in that end seat. And I know that on a Saturday night when it comes on I'm going to be livid... but I think I made the right decision.
I'm actually a bit nervous about how jealous I'm going to be when I see who's in that end seat. And I know that on a Saturday night when it comes on I'm going to be livid... but I think I made the right decision.
Quote Message: I'm quite excited about it to be honest because I do really like the show and I believe in it. And I think it's a great way of finding talent, whether they go on to do big things or not. I'm still in contact with loads of mine. Jolan, he's doing great things - I can't tell you about it, it's top secret. Kevin of course, Nathan - he's going to do big things - and I spoke to Beth last night.

Wilson says he's too busy with the return of the Kaiser Chiefs anyway (more on that coming later this week on Music News LIVE). So who would he like to see sitting in that spinny chair when The Voice returns?

An archive of all of Prince's official websites from through the years has been launched.

The View's Kyle Falconer to visit rehab in Thailand
GettCopyright: Gett
The View's frontman Kyle Falconer has put his wedding on hold and cancelled shows at Reading and Leeds to have treatment at a rehab facility in Thailand.
The 29-year-old said the 56-day stint at Lanna Rehab near Chiang Mai, where Pete Doherty was treated, is his "last chance".
Falconer - who was removed from a flight in handcuffs in Nantes, France, due to "violent behaviour" last month - told Scotland's Sunday Mail he has finally accepted he has a problem with drink and drugs.
“It’s weird. I’ve been in denial so long, I’m used to saying, ‘It’s not me, I was just drunk.’
"So I was never even apologetic as I couldn’t remember doing anything.
“Being told the next day what you’ve been up to, it’s not normal.
“You’ve got to listen to your loved ones, though, and if they say you have a problem, then you need to hear that."
The singer joined The View more than a decade ago at just 18 and helped the band gain a hard partying reputation.
"I’m determined to take it seriously this time," he added, "I have to.”
Michael Kiwanuka: 'I couldn't even put a track on and play a demo'
Kev Geoghegan
Arts and entertainment reporter
Former BBC Sound of 2012 winner Michael Kiwanuka has revealed his self-confidence was shaken so much between records that he scrapped an entire album.
"The idea of sitting down to write a song wasn't fun anymore, I always thought it wasn't good enough," he told us.
"I couldn't even put a track on and play a demo to people, I just thought they were awful."
Luckily, the frustration he was feeling boiled over into the song Black Man in a White World - which became the first single from his forthcoming album Love and Hate.
Glastonbury chose Damon Albarn and the Orchestra of Syrian Musicians to open the Pyramid Stage this year - one of a series of special concerts for the collaborators - and a new BBC radio documentary has gone behind the scenes of rehearsals.
Members of the Orchestra of Syrian Musicians were dispersed around the world when their home country was torn apart by war and many of them had not seen each other for five years.
BBC World Service spent time with them as they reconvened at a rehearsal space in east Amsterdam for an emotional reunion.
"I cannot describe how it felt when we finally met again", singer Mais Harb said. "There were lots of tears, lots of hugging, lots of happiness."

Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry has rejected singer Steven Tyler’s claims that the band’s next tour will definitely be their last.It's after Tyler told US DJ Howard Stern in June that the next Aerosmith shows will be a "farewell tour, because it’s time".Perry - who is currently playing with supergroup Hollywood Vampires - told Rolling Stone he can't imagine doing a farewell tour.
"I don't know how it sits with me yet," he said.
"At this point in our lives and career, maybe it is time to say ‘OK, it’s the end of this era – but there’s a new era on the horizon.’
"So I don’t know if I’m comfortable saying ‘final tour’ and making a big deal out of it.”
However he then added: "We'll see what happens. If it was going to happen, we're closer to it than, say, any other time in our insane career."
He also joked: "I always hold my breath whenever Steven does an interview on his own."
Drake's album Views is still dominating the US chart - scoring a ninth week in a row at the top of the Billboard 200 where it debuted.
It's apparently the most weeks a male artist has spent at the top in more than ten years - since Usher's 2004 album Confessions.
Read more fun facts on Billboard. Meanwhile in the UK album chart, Adele's 25 reclaimed its crown after a week that included her Glastonbury set and the album's debut on streaming sites.
Drake's One Dance topped the singles chart for a 12th straight week, becoming the UK's third longest-running number one ever.
Only Bryan Adams and Wet Wet Wet have spent more consecutive weeks in the top spot.

Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas paid tribute to victims of the Orlando shooting at the weekend as the pair's tour arrived in the US city.
They performed Rise Up with singer Andra Day in memory of those killed and injured in the attack on gay nightclub Pulse last month - as well as remembering singer Christina Grimmie who was also recently shot and killed in Orlando.
Jonas told fans on Instagram afterwards that they'd wanted to honour the "victims of the terrible acts of violence recently.”
Quote Message: From start to finish, the singer proved why she’s called Queen B, but also why she’s a movement. Uplifting, her incredible vocals, her ‘always on beat’ choreography, her presence and determination given to us by her musical messaging was like the best feel good movie you’ve seen in years. There’s no doubt about the night, Beyoncé gave us life.

The Evening Standard added:

The paddling pool for the singer and her dancers to splash around in was a slightly baffling finale. On the whole, though, it was a stadium-sized spectacular for Beyoncé’s empowering message.

Love it or haaaaaate it - I'm Too Sexy by Right Said Fred is still one of the most enduring earworms of the past 25 years.

Carole King looked overjoyed last night as she played her first UK concert since 1989.
She spent most of the show beaming from ear to ear, as the audience sang back every word of her classic album, Tapestry.
King even did the "jump up, jump back" dance while playing an encore of The Loco-Motion, which she wrote with her ex-husband Gerry Goffin in 1962.
"So this is what 74 looks like!" she exclaimed, to a huge cheer.
