During the Knockout Rounds, the competing artists will be paired with a teammate and select their own songs to perform individually. Swift will be on-hand to work with all four coaches and their teams to provide feedback, suggestions and praise as the artists prepare for their performances.
It is not the first time Swift has been on the show. The singer was a Mega Mentor during the seventh season in 2014.
