I watched the first show of this Friday night. Not sure how it's going to be.
The series features an eclectic cast of performers including:
Bobby Brown -- R&B singer, former member of New Edition (I hope he left his crack pipe at home)
Carnie Wilson -- singer-songwriter, former member of Wilson Phillips and author
Dee Snider -- radio personality, lead singer Twisted Sister
Diana DeGarmo -- recording artist, Broadway actor and 2004 American Idol finalist (She has dark hair now!)
Julio Iglesias Jr. -- pop singer (Not as handsome as his brother Enrique)
Maureen McCormick -- singer-actor, The Brady Bunch (She sings? I thought all the Brady kids were just lip-synching)
Sisqó -- R&B singer, former member of the group Dru Hill
Gone Country uproots these seven musical celebrities and moves them into a Nashville mansion together to embark on a two-week adventure, hosted by singer-songwriter John Rich. Each celebrity will be paired up with some of Nashville's finest songwriters in an attempt to prepare them for a career in country music. In each episode, the cast competes against each other in challenges that will test them musically and physically to adapt to a country music lifestyle, both on and off the stage. At the end of the two weeks, the artist who is most prepared to impress a country audience, as determined by Rich, will record and release a song.
