Lenny Kravitz is reportedly being lined up as a judge on The Voice UK.

According to the Sunday Mirror newspaper, the singer has been in discussions with the BBC and is seriously considering joining the show.

Speaking to the BBC a source said: "They want Lenny for The Voice and he's close to ­saying yes. They want the show to be credible - not full of pop people who don't sing live and don't know the industry. And they don't want to make mistakes with the casting."

They added: "So they must have thought long and hard before approaching Lenny. When we got the rights to The Voice we assured people we would assemble a panel of great singers and credible recording artists. Lenny is both of those things."

The Voice sees contestants initially audition while the judges have their backs turned, so that the singer is judged purely on their vocal talent.

The winner will sign a record contract with Universal.
