A different kind of reality song competition on etc

The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines - Unlike any other singing reality show on TV, etc’s The Next holds no auditions and has no judges. What it does have is star power. Featuring Nelly, Gloria Estefan, Joe Jonas of The Jonas Brothers and John Rich (photo) as mentors, the four travel across the US to find and groom upcoming musicians so that they can take the next step in their career. The Next: Fame Is At Your Doorstep is aired Wednesday nights at 7.

Visiting the cities of Orlando, Baltimore, New York, Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles, the four mentors will find aspiring singers who have not only made a name for themselves in their hometowns but also have a following on Twitter and Facebook or are regulars at the hottest clubs. The Next aims not to pluck aspiring singers from obscurity but to take proven artists and help them make the leap from local star to global sensation.

Another new program to watch in the channel  is a locally produced show titled,  ETC HQ on Sunday nights at 8:45. It offers viewers the latest trends on all things that interest the stylish youth. ETC HQ is hosted by Mike Concepcion, Julia Sniegowski and Patti Grandidge.
