Ricky Wilson of the Kaiser Chiefs: 'There isn't a good reason for me to return to 'The Voice''

'I Predict A Riot' hitmaker Ricky Wilson has revealed that he's doubtful of a return to 'The Voice' for another season because he doesn't feel that there's a 'reason' to take part again. 

Speaking to the NME from Brighton's Great Escape festival, the Kaiser Chiefs frontman explained that he only wants to do things he fully believes in and right now, he isn't in that place with the vocal talent show:

"We decided to do it for a very good reason and that's because we had an album we didn't want to go unnoticed. If I did it again I'd have to have a good reason and at the moment, there isn't a good reason. That's the truth."

Back in April, Wilson told London's Metro newspaper that he was brave for accepting the coaching position because no other alternative artist had ever stepped into that kind of spotlight:

"This is me being a big head here, so I need to be careful - but when it was announced that Chris Martin was doing the American one...I'd like to think that it came into his head when he was offered it that it was maybe something that we're allowed to do. I was probably the first alternative musician to judge on a reality show and I think it was a brave step to do that, but I see it as a step in the door."
