Rolling Stone broke the news, and report that Blige and Levine (LeBlige?) have already begun filming. The pair exchanged niceties about one another to the magazine, with Levine (or perhaps a publicity robot) stating, "I've always been a huge fan of Mary J. Blige, so it's been great having her on 'The Voice' as an adviser to my team." The hip-hop soul diva added, "I love Adam, he's amazing. I'm so happy to be working with him and his team."

Phew. At least everyone's happy. This, of course, comes a week after Blake Shelton announced Michael Bublé would be his adviser, meaning it's only fair that we suggest a hybrid celebrity moniker for them as well. Like, for instance, Bubléton? Or maybe Sheble? Fortunately, all the aforementioned are better at singing and evaluating talent than we are at dreaming up nicknames.
"The Voice" Season 3 premieres September 10 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.
