R+B star CHRIS BROWN is set to enter the reality tv industry by launching his own dance competition series.
The Kiss Kiss hitmaker frequently shows off his fancy footwork in his music videos and live performances, and now he is to give wannabe dancers a chance to strut their stuff on his forthcoming show.
The currently untitled project, which will focus on hip-hop and street dance culture, will see contestants go up against one another in a variety of dance-offs, with Brown choosing the winner of each round.
Speaking of the program, Brown says, “Dancing is more than just a way of moving, it’s a different expression of music. That’s what I want to focus on with this show.”
Reality TV guru Mark Burnett and his business partner J.D. Roth will produce the program, which is due to be pitched to TV networks next week, reports Variety.com.
Sounds like a hot show. I always wished Chris would pop up on shows like America’s Best Dance Crew, now it looks like he will have his own reality series. Just adding to the long list of a million other dance shows on tv, but with Chris it is sure to be a hit.
