A while back, "American Idol" announced that a number of current music stars would be performing with this season's finalists.

Now, the show is revealing the A-list pairings and when fans can expect to see talent like Luis Fonsi, Aloe Blacc, Lea Michelle and more sing alongside the young, unproven hopefuls.

The first chance you'll get to see the stars team up with the 24 finalists will be this coming Monday. Half of the top finalists will sing with eight different stars; some of the stars will double up and sing with two contestants.
