Alicia Keys To Mentor On Idol

Alicia Keys is set to appear on American Idol this week. She will mentor the remaining seven contestants on Tuesday's show, which has the theme of inspirational songs.

On Wednesday, Keys will be one of the performers for the "Idol Gives Back" episode, which will also include performances by Elton John, Carrie Underwood and the Black Eyed Peas. Queen Latifah will appear as co-host with Idol regular Ryan Seacrest.
"Idol Gives Back" will raise money for a number of charities, including the Children's Health Fund and the United Nations Foundation.

Keys follows Miley Cyrus, Usher and former contestant Adam Lambert as mentors on Idol this season. She is still promoting her latest album, The Element of Freedom, which came out last year.
