Cee Lo Green is leaving his spinning judge's chair behind. The producer and recording artist revealed he will not return to NBC's The Voice, telling Ellen DeGeneres in an interview airing Wednesday "I'm not coming back guys."
"I’m going to continue my relationship with NBC. I have a television show development deal with them as well and hopefully some other talk show opportunities for later in the year," Green said in the interview. "But yeah, I’m going to miss The Voice” too. So I’m not coming back guys."
Green appeared with Lionel Richie, whom he is joining on an upcoming joint tour, "All The Hits All Night Long."

"I just want to…I don’t want to wear out my welcome there," Green said. "You know what I’m saying. I have so many other things that I want to do. I haven’t released an album in four years. I’m almost done with my album."

In 2012, Green signed a first-look deal with NBC to develop, produce and potentially star in new projects.
Green's rep did not immediately respond to request for comment.
