(Radio.com) The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame Induction Ceremony � set to take place at Los Angeles' Nokia Theatre L.A. LIVE on April 18 � has just added a lot of star power to its lineup, with Usher, director Spike Lee, Carole King, John Fogerty, Jackson Browne, Pearl Jam's Mike McCready, Alice In Chains' Jerry Cantrell and Harry Belafonte just added to the program.

As previously announced, this year's inductees include Rush, Public Enemy, Heart, Donna Summer, Randy Newman and Albert King, with Quincy Jones and Lou Adler both receiving the Ahmet Ertegun Award for Lifetime Achievement.

Usher will perform a tribute to Quincy Jones, who, among his many achievements, produced Michael Jackson's Off The Wall, Thriller and Bad, three albums that clearly made an impression on the R&B star.

Cheech & Chong will present Lou Adler, and Carole King will perform a tribute to him. Adler produced recordings for both acts, in addiction to Sam Cooke and The Mamas & The Papas. He was also the owner of L.A.'s Roxy Theatre, co-producer of the Monterey Pop Festival, and produced the 1975 cult classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

Christina Aguilera and Jennifer Hudson will perform a diva-rific tribute to Donna Summer. See who else will be there.
