Does
anybody remember Circus of the Stars? It seems as though all of our reality shows lately are just the next
version of that 1980s show, doesn't it? First it was dancing. Then it was skating. Now, it's singing with celebrities.
American Idol's Simon Cowell just signed a deal with FOX to create a celeb-reality show called Duets.
You've already figured out the premise, haven't you? Non-singing celebrities pair up with singers and compete for the
public's affection. Just like the skating and the dancing, the viewers vote for their favorite duo. Even though Cowell
is a creator, he will not be a judge. Pity. I'd love to see him rip into Paris Hilton or a lower-calibur celebrity.
Cowell's also producing this show in the U.K. Expect to see Duets this summer on FOX. When nothing else is on.

You forget that Paris Hilton IS a singing celebrity. She has her own album.
