Well, rumors are that it will be Shakira and Usher who would start sitting next to Adam Levine and Blake Shelton at the end of the current season.

We don’t yet know why the changes, but Aguilera had recently revealed to Ryan Seacrest that she viewed the show as “kind of like a side project.” She said specifically, “[I thought], ‘It’ll keep me close to my son [Max, 4] in L.A. I don’t have to travel..Then it kind of took off, and there goes my free time!”

This is interesting news given that American Idol just made an announcement of two new judges who will join Randy Jackson and Mariah Ca Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban will join Randy Jackson and Mariah Carey as judges.

What do you think? Should Usher and Shakira join The Voice?
