celeb news Nicole Scherzinger, Kelly Rowland and Liam Payne to judge Netflix singing competition

[Nefertiti0]

Netflix has tapped Nicole Scherzinger (The Pussycat Dolls) to serve as mentor and judge on Netflix's upcoming music competition series Building the Band. Joining her on the judges' panel are One Direction's Liam Payne and Destiny's Child's Kelly Rowland. Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean will serve as host.  Additional guest judges, along with various challenges will be announced at a later date.
 

Building the Band seeks to discover the next great music group without bandmates initially meeting face-to-face. In the series, the singers are in complete control as they seek to form their very own bands in individual 'booths' without ever seeing each other. All they have to go on is musical compatibility, connection, chemistry and merit.  Once formed, bands finally meet face to face, where "looks, choreography and style" suddenly come into play. Netflix is promising "incredible performances, compelling drama and one big goal — to find the next great music band."

"great music band"

 

Is it a band or a pop group? 

[Apolonio ₃₄]

Will look in just for AJ 

 

[Hustler]

The panel actually indeed makes sense considering Nicole was the one behind grouping 1D, Kelly doing the same with Little Mix and Liam being part of 1D.

 

It could actually be great. It will probably lead to yet another group disbanding in the mid term, but let's see.

[LittleCupid]

Lately it feels as if execs are trying hard to make groups popular again in the western world.

[Luckitty]

nobody wants to see liam they should replace him with someone else 

[Schami66]

Sounds great! I'm so here for another huge girlband

[Bloodflowers.]

Wait, this sounds good! I am here for it

 

Time for Gen Z girl groups and boy groups! Make music fun again! 

 

[brutal]

The first mistake is making the show for girl/boybands. They have ZERO appeal in the West anymore because consumers all know how it will go down and want to cut the BS and just support the Beyonce/Justin/Harry of the group from the gate.

[KBax]

Nobody asked for this

I guess they're saving the budget for production?

[Sabandija]

I don't care about the show. I just want a new Kelly album.

[Assassin]

They saw the videos of Kelly creating LM and Nicole creating 1D.

[Sabandija]

I don't think Kelly and Nicole are gonna get along well.
