Will Young criticises the BBC for 'handling The Voice axe badly'

 

The Pop Idol winner had been lined up to appear as a judge on the BBC singing contest, but was axed last minute in favour of The Script singer Danny O'Donoghue.
He told the Daily Star: 'They wanted to go more rock.

'Of course I'm disappointed not to be doing the show, not to mention how it's been handled.'
Young added: 'But the support from fans has been overwhelming. They really have been amazing.'
The singer had previously shown a flair for work in front of the camera, recently hosting BBC music panel show Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

Late arrival to the The Voice O'Donoghue will be joined by Jessie J, Tom Jones and will.i.am as vocal coaches on the show, which is to be presented by Holly Willoughby and Reggie Yates.
The show proved a hit in the US, with Cee Lo Green, Adam Levine and Christina Aguilera at the helm.
