Aretha and Diddy Reality TV pair up.
Aretha Franklin is putting her “Soul” into Reality TV.Network sources say that the soul legend and Hip hop mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs will join hands for an “American Idol” style talent search next year.
Franklin however says this show will be different, there’ll be no audience voting, just her and Diddy determining the weekly cuts and the winner of the season.
A formal date for the show’s premiere hasn’t been released as yet, but rumour has it that the show will air on TV late 2009.
Aretha Franklin is making her entry in the world of reality TV. What is the name of this new talent search program? I want to see how Sean “Diddy” Combs and Aretha Franklin acts as judges in the show. Without audience voting, I think this show will be quite interesting. Public voting makes the program so uncertain.
This lady has eighteen (yes, 18) Grammys to her name so if she doesn’t know what it takes to be a winner in the world of soul showbiz, then who does? Teaming with Diddy takes care of the hip-hop side of things. This shows gonna be worth a watch. Let’s just hope it gets off the ground, cos so many stars have big plans that never materialise.
