MUMBAI: US broadcaster ABC has announced a new music competition series, ?Duets?.
Utt has roped in four stars - Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Nettles, Lionel Richie and Robin Thicke. The new series will debut this summer .
Clarkson, Nettles, Richie and Thicke will individually set out on a journey across America looking for undiscovered talent worthy of being their prot?g?s. Ultimately, each Superstar will choose two singers to be his/her duet partners. Together the Superstars and their prot?g?s will take the stage each week and perform in front of a live studio audience.
In the end, only one duet will be at the top of the charts, and the winning amateur will receive a recording contract with Hollywood Records.
Amateur singers interested in auditioning for the Superstars as they travel the country looking for talent can apply online at www.ABC.com/Casting.
Clarkson said, "The simple fact that I get to go out and find two people that I believe in, sing with them every week, and help them accomplish their dream is an amazing thing that I can?t wait to be a part of!?
Since bursting onto the music scene 10 years ago, Kelly Clarkson has released 5 studio albums, sold over 21 million albums worldwide, 10 million albums in the U.S., and has had 10 singles in the Top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart.
