Cypriot singer Marios Pastellis returns to The Voice after eight years

On Sunday, October 11, 2026, 35-year-old Cypriot singer Marios Pastellis appeared on the second episode of the Blind Auditions for the music talent show The Voice. His performance successfully captured the attention of the coaches, marking his return to the stage eight years after his initial participation in the program.

During his previous stint on the show, Pastellis had managed to join Elena Paparizou's team but did not progress further in the competition. This time, his performance proved more successful, as three of the four coaches—Christos Mastoras, Elena Paparizou, and Paola—turned their chairs and sought to recruit him into their respective teams. The fourth coach, Panos Mouzourakis, also participated in the panel during the audition process, which continues to feature contestants from both Greece and Cyprus.

This appearance represents a renewed effort by the contestant to pursue a professional music career through the platform. Following the successful auditions, the singer is now faced with the decision of selecting which coach will mentor him as he moves into the next stages of the competition.
