Tune in to NBC's THE VOICE on Tuesday, May 18th at 8 p.m. EST to catch their performance.
In a

"I've got all the jitters and nerves from when I was there last, and I'm not even a contestant anymore! So pumped to be back, and I can't thank
THE VOICE and Kelly enough for giving me this opportunity!"
Additionally, Clarkson shared her enthusiasm for the performance stating, "There is something so heartwarming about seeing these winners return home to
THE VOICE family," Clarkson also shared with the outlet. "I cannot wait to reunite with Jake next week."
