Simon Cowell is partnering with Jada Pinkett-Smith and Will Smith on a new TV show to find the world’s greatest DJs.
The show has been in development for over a year, and the parties involved will be announcing their broadcasting partners in both the US and the UK soon.
Simon Cowell said: “We have been working on this show for over a year and we wanted to partner with the right people. As soon as I met Jada and Miguel from Overbrook, I knew they would be our ideal partners. DJ’s are the new rock stars, it feels like the right time to make this show.”
“This show will comb the world to find a new breed of talent,” said Jada Pinkett-Smith, ” I am happy to be creating it alongside Simon Cowell, the Sony team, and my partner Miguel Melendez, on behalf of the Overbrook family.
“We are thrilled to be working with Simon Cowell and our partners at Overbrook on what we know will be a tremendously successful global format,” said Andrea Wong, President of International Production for Sony Pictures Television.
Will this be a competition, like American Idol for DJs? Simon’s jumping on this bandwagon a tad late, I think. Via Deadline
