After the appearance of
Kristin Cavallari (
Laguna Beach) and Nicole Scherzinger of The Pussycat Dolls, fans of
Cane can expect to see yet another celebrity to guest star on the drama series. R&B and soul singer Alicia Keys is also set to grace the CBS show created by Cynthia Cidre.
Keys, who has sold over 20 million albums worldwide and has won numerous awards, including nine Grammys, 11 Billboard Music Awards and three American Music Awards, will be playing herself in the upcoming episode of
Cane but will be doing some flirting with Henry Duque, who is portrayed by
Eddie Matos.

who played the Canadian woman in this episode Nov. 6
The 27-year-old recording artist has already acted in films like
The Nanny Diaries and
Smokin' Aces, but on the set of
Cane, it was her voice that proved to be the most powerful force. While filming her scene, she took the stage to sing “No One,” a cut from her new album that will be released next month. The cast and crew of
Cane burst into applause after Keys sat at the piano and showed the same awe-inspiring talent that made her an award-winning singer for albums like
Songs in A Minor and
Diary.
Getting a bunch of music stars on
Cane is something that greatly appeals to the cast and crew of the show, and record companies as well. The idea is to have them perform in Miami, specifically at the Duque club, and also serve as a marketing vehicle to promote new recordings.
Hector Elizondo, who plays patriarch Pancho Duque, believes that the music is a very important aspect of the show.
“It's not a novelty bit just thrown in. The music is almost like another character, creating a mood, adding to the drama and giving off energy,” Elizondo said.
Fans can catch a new episode of
Cane every Tuesday at 10pm ET/PT on CBS.
