The Voice Kids is a Brazilian music talent show which premiered on TV Globo on January 3, 2016 and ended on July 9, 2023. Based on the reality singing competition The Voice Kids, the series was created by Dutch television producer John de Mol.
The series' original coaches were Carlinhos Brown, Ivete Sangalo and Victor & Leo.[1] Victor Chaves left the show midway through season 2 due to his wife's allegations against him concerning domestic violence. As a result, previously recorded footage of him was edited out from episodes 8 and 9, and Leo became a solo coach for the remaining of the season.[2]
After two seasons, Ivete Sangalo swapped roles with Claudia Leitte to become a coach on The Voice Brasil,[3] while Simone & Simaria replaced Victor & Leo permanently for season three.[4] For season six, Gaby Amarantos and Michel Teló replaced Claudia Leitte and Simone & Simaria respectively. Maiara & Maraisa replaced Gaby Amarantos for season seven.[5] In last season eight, Iza and Mumuzinho replaced Maiara & Maraisa and Michel Teló, respectively.[6]
In August 2023, Globo announced that the upcoming 12th season of the regular series would be the last, thus cancelling the children's version after season eight.[7]
