*Producers for NBC’s upcoming talent competition “The Voice” wants Cee Lo Green to occupy one of the judging seats.
EW is reporting that producer Mark Burnett is in talks with the “F*** You” singer and Maroon 5’s Adam Levine about joining the series, which is based on a Dutch talent show that was a ratings hit.
