Sia confirmed as guest mentor for 'American Idol' next week

It has been confirmed that 'Chandelier' singer-songwriter Sia will be joining 'American Idol' to mentor the top five hopefuls and also to perform live on the show. 

A tweet posted from Sia's official Twitter page this afternoon contained more details about her upcoming appearance on the popular programme:

"Sia's joining @AmericanIdol on 3/24! Watch as she performs & mentors the Top 5 at 8/7c on @FOXTV - Team Sia."

Sia, meanwhile, recently opened up about her decision to disguise her identity and told The Late Late Show's James Corden that it helps keep her feeling balanced and in control:

“I only wear this just to try and maintain a modicum of privacy. I was a singer already for 10 or 11 years to mediocre success. I was an alcoholic and a drug addict and I sobered up and decided I didn’t want to be an artist anymore because I started to get a little bit famous and I was destabilising in some way."
