[caption=Billie Joe with Christina Aguilera]072712_billie_christina.jpg[/caption]It's been quite some time since we [turl=http://www.greendayauthority.com/news/3390/]first heard[/turl] that Billie Joe was going to be a mentor on this coming season of The Voice, but now the wait is finally over. After the "blind auditions" came to a close last week the show has now moved on to the "battle rounds" where Billie Joe's role comes into the show.

Billie Joe is a mentor on Christina Aguilera's team meaning that he will be helping the contestants on team Christina get ready for their battles. Billie will also be helping Christina when she "steals" an contestant from another team. Here's a brief overview of what Billie will be doing on the show.
