This is exactly how I process vocals.

If you're wondering what I do on an "average" vocal track, it would be some combination of what I talked about in this video, with these steps being essential:
Ableton Saturator
Ableton Compressor
Waves Renaissance De-Esser (usually de-esser after all compressors, I made this track really fast so that was a slightly less optimal order)
FabFilter Pro Q 2

And these steps being optional:
Doubled vocal
Ableton Chorus
Dada Life Sausage Fattener
Waves Maserati VX1
UAD Lexicon 224

Depending on the "flavor" of compressor or reverb I want I am also most fond of:
UAD Teletronix LA-2A
UAD 1176 LN
UAD Ocean Way Studios
Waves Renaissance Reverb
