According to the Hollywood Reporter, the former “American Idol” judge will be the lead judge, executive producer, creative partner, mentor and coach on “Got to Dance” which is based on an already popular British dance competition.
The new show will involve everything from "ballroom to breakdance, bhangra to ballet and tap to tango." The acts will compete before a panel of judges, and viewers will vote for their favorites during the semifinals and finals.
The program is likely to be a mid-season replacement, which could mean that Ms Abdul will go head-to-head with “American Idol” in 2011.
