Paola is reportedly in advanced discussions to join The Voice of Greece<\/strong> as a coach, following the death of Giorgos Mazonakis just days before filming for the new season was scheduled to begin.<\/h3>\n

According to Greek entertainment outlet Zappit<\/a>, the popular singer is now close to reaching an agreement with SKAI to take the vacant coaching seat.<\/p>\n

Mazonakis had been announced as one of the coaches for the upcoming season, but his sudden death on September 9 left the production with the difficult task of finding a replacement shortly before filming was set to begin.<\/p>\n

Paola and Mazonakis shared a long-standing friendship and a close professional relationship in the Greek music industry.<\/p>\n

Her reported involvement would therefore bring a personal connection to the program as production prepares to continue following Mazonakis\u2019 death.<\/p>\n

Neither Paola nor SKAI has officially confirmed the reported agreement.<\/p>\n

According to the reports, however, the two sides are expected to finalize the deal and sign contracts within the next few days, barring any last-minute developments.<\/p>\n

The new season of The Voice of Greece<\/strong> is expected to begin filming shortly.<\/p>\n
