As The Voice gears up for their season 10 finale, which is set to air later this month, speculation is swirling about a possible duet between judge Christina Augilera and an unlikely singer—the late Whitney Houston.

Rumors began to circulate after photos of Christina on stage rehearsing with what appeared to be a Whitney Houston hologram surfaced online earlier this month. Entertainment Tonight reportedly received exclusive confirmation from an unidentified source who says a Whitney hologram will indeed be featured on an episode of the show “for a special performance.”

While NBC declined to comment on the topic, Christina decided to offer a few words in response without giving too much away.  “I am sworn to secrecy,” she said. “I can’t say anything, but I’m very excited about the finale. Very exciting things are happening.”

Christina has been vocal about Whitney being one of her biggest musical influences throughout the course of her career and even performed a memorable tribute to the music icon in her presence at the BET Awards in 2001.
