According to The Hollywood Reporter, the show is set to air on NBC and will feature contestants of all ages singing in front of celebrity judges for a $1 million cash prize. Contestants will reportedly sing a duel, and both performances will be judged. The site reports that the contestants will have the option to cut a deal -- if they have doubts about how their performance compared to their opponent's, they can choose to leave the show in exchange for cash. If they choose to remain in the game, it's up to the judges if they've made it to the next round.
NBC spokesman Paul Telegdy told Hollywood Reporter of the announcement, "Nick is a versatile, seasoned host, and we are thrilled to be working him. With Nick at the helm on air and an original format ... that includes surprising and competitive twists, viewers are sure to be immersed and entertained."
Auditions start in January. If you're interested in applying, visit www.singinggameshow.com.
