Josh Groban hates waiting — which, perhaps, makes him the perfect host for ABC’s new reality singing competition, Rising Star (Sunday, June 22, 9/8c).
In the network’s latest promo, Groban and judges Ludacris, Kesha and Brad Paisley explain what they think sets their show apart from its competitors: No results show, immediate advancement or elimination based on live viewer voting through a Rising Star app, and power completely in the hands of fans (not the celebrity panel).
What’s more, images of selected voters will be projected onto a giant wall that will separate contestants from success or failure: “Yes” votes will raise the wall (and lead to the next round); “no” votes will keep the wall in place (and lead to elimination).
Press PLAY on the video for more intel on the Rising Star format, then tell us if you’ll be watching! And follow me on Twitter @MichaelSlezakTV for all my reality TV recaps, news and exclusives!
