CMT's Next Superstar

Father-son team, Nigel & Simon Lythgoe announced today that they have partnered with CMT to launch a new music competition series designed to find CMT’S NEXT SUPERSTAR. CMT’S NEXT SUPERSTAR is set to premiere April 1st at 8pm on CMT.
CMT’S NEXT SUPERSTAR will be executive produced Simon Lythgoe and Nigel Lythgoe. Nigel and Simon have both been involved or are still involved with American Idol and So You Think You Can Dance.

“This isn’t just a singing competition, the contestants will also be judged on their song writing, radio interviews and music videos,” said executive producer, Nigel Lythgoe. “We’re looking for more than just a singer, we want the complete creative, talented package – performer, personality and writer. We want the next Country superstar.”

Contestants on CMT’S NEXT SUPERSTAR will try to impress celebrity guests each week through a series of music business related ‘challenges’ and grueling performance rounds. Each week, one finalist will be eliminated and America will have the final vote to determine who will win the title of CMT’S NEXT SUPERSTAR.
