After three seasons of the widely successful talent show 'The Voice' US, judges Christina Aguilera and CeeLo Green have left their positions as panelists.
Adam Levine and Blake Shelton signed back on for the fourth season, with the two empty big red chairs being quickly filled by none other than super smooth superstar Usher and belly dancing babe Shakira!
But Aguilera and Green don't plan to give up their seats on the hit show for long claiming they're only on a hiatus and will return for the fifth season.
"Doing two back-to-back cycles of this show requires a tremendous amount of time, and we are happy to accommodate the commitments made by Christina and CeeLo," said Robert Greenblatt, Chairman, NBC Entertainment.
"The participants on our show benefit from our coaches' expertise and their continued success in the music business allows for significant new contributions to the contestants when they return."
Aguilera is set to release her seventh studio album 'Lotus' in November, while Green is also busy working on a new solo album, new Goodie Mob album, writing a memoir, and comedy TV show!
Meanwhile Down Under, a replacement mentor for Keith Urban on 'The Voice' Australia still has not been announced.
