Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keys Join 'The Voice' as Coaches

Miley Cyrus and Alicia Keys will replace Gwen Stefani and Pharrell Williams as coaches for season 11. The news comes just days ahead of Cyrus' Voice debut on season 10, during which she will serve as a key advisor mentoring all four groups of contestants. Keys previously served as a mentor for Williams' group of singers during his season-seven debut. The two will join returning stars Adam Levine and Blake Shelton, who have been with the series since its inception. Cyrus confirmed her new gig late Friday on Twitter.

Levine, Shelton and Williams are also on the current season alongside original coach Christina Aguilera. In recent years, Aguilera has taken every other season off, with another female coach subbing in for her. First, it was Shakira, and then it was Stefani. The latter is famously dating Shelton after the two met on The Voice. The 11th season of The Voice will air later in September.
