Paloma Faith suffered anxiety on The Voice

Paloma Faith suffered "a lot of anxiety" on \'The Voice\'.

The 38-year-old singer appeared as a judge on the show back in 2016, but Paloma has now admitted she actually prefers her current role as a coach on \'The Voice Kids\'.

Paloma shared: "I feel like the main show gave me a lot of anxiety, but this gives me pure joy in bucketloads.

"You see it with your own eyes, how growing up and becoming an adult gives us inhibition, self-doubt ... But we all, at some point when we were kids, had a purity and our talents could really shine."

Despite this, Paloma has still had to comfort some of the children on the programme, acknowledging that "kids are really aware of embarrassment".

She told Metro.co.uk: "I feel like it\'s about not patronising them, so just saying: \'Take a breath, you\'re brilliant.\'

"It\'s about encouragement, it\'s not about drawing attention to it because kids are really aware of embarrassment and stuff, probably as much as adults would be.

"It\'s not supposed to be a defining moment for any of them. I wouldn\'t do a show that was giving that pressure to kids."

In May, meanwhile, Paloma revealed she\'d completed an entirely new album during the coronavirus lockdown.

She said: "I didn\'t really know how to produce before but I do now.

"I have been recording as if there isn\'t a lockdown, working Monday to Friday.

"So I have made an album that will come out this year and I am hoping to tour it then too, but who knows."
