It seems like most professions out there have a reality show about them, and now aspiring singer-songwriters are getting their time in the spotlight with Bravo's new competition series Platinum Hit.
Platinum Hit (premieres Monday, May 30 at 10pm) follows 12 up-and-coming musicians as they battle through a series of innovative songwriting challenges testing their creativity, patience and drive. From dance track to love ballad, every episode will feature a different theme that will require the contestants to write and perform lyrics from multiple genres.
Joining the contestants will be two of the most accomplished songwriters today: Jewel will host the series, as well as gives her feedback as a judge, alongside former American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi, who is the head judge each week. There will also be more big-name judges including Leona Lewis, Natasha Bedingfield, Donna Summer, Jermaine Dupri, Taio Cruz and Ryan Tedder.
The winner of Platinum Hit will walk away with a $100,000 cash prize, a publishing deal with Sony, BMI Songwriters The Writing Camp, and a recording deal with RCA/Jive. Not too shabby!
