THE Voice coaches have been rapped by BBC bosses for SWEARING.
Producers have had to cut scenes from pre-recorded episodes to avoid airing foul-mouthed outbursts on the family show.
And insiders revealed they are now panicking that the stars will slip up in the live shows and have warned them to control their language.
A source said: “The coaches have been repeatedly asked to watch their language, as The Voice is a family show and a lot of children do watch.
“But sometimes they get so involved that they forget to censor their language and swear words slip out.
“It is causing a headache for producers and it could cause a real problem on the live shows.”
On Saturday, viewers saw Danny O’Donoghue call Will.i.am “a ********** idiot”. And after one decision, Will exclaimed: “What the *******?”
The source went on: “We have aired a few choice words from Danny and Will in particular, but there are many more outbursts we had to cut. The worry is that with the live shows we won’t have that control.”
Tensions between the coaches were so fraught on Saturday night that Jessie J stormed off the set.
The dispute erupted when Jessie criticised Will’s song choice for hopefuls Liam Tamne and John Pritchard, who sang Easy Lover by Phil Collins and Philip Bailey.
She said: “I just don’t feel like you got to show yourselves — it was the wrong song choice. Will, why did you pick that song?”
But Will snapped back: “I don’t pick songs for Jessie to say ‘Wow that was a great song choice.’ This song is best for what I needed to see so it did its job.”
Jessie then bolted off the stage, shouting: “I don’t understand what he’s doing. I just need to have a moment away from him.”
Each coach has seven team members left in the show.
But this weekend viewers will see 16 singers axed in the knockout stages — leaving teams of just three for the June live finals.
