huffingtonpost.com - "The Voice" welcomes Shakira and Usher for Season 4 and the two seem to be taking to their big red chairs like pros. In new photos released by NBC, Shakira, Usher and returning coaches Blake Shelton and Adam Levine are assembled in their iconic spinning chairs for the new season.

Shakira and Usher replace Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green as coaches on the NBC singing competition.

"Christina and Cee Lo are so close to my heart because we went through the show becoming a success together, and Usher and Shakira are coming into it as a big frickin' institution," Levine said in November 2012. "So it's different, but it still feels good, because they're legitimate artists." More photos here
