Former American Idol judge Paula Abdul will star on a brand new primetime talent show called “Got To Dance” on CBS, according to Hollywood Reporter. Paula will basically do everything on the show from lead judge to executive producer, creative partner, mentor and coach. Phew!

Paula apparently rejected the offer of being a judge on Simon Cowell’s US version of “The X-Factor” to get her own dance competition series, which will include all types of dance. CBS is expected to announce the big news on Monday (May 24).

“Got To Dance” developed by ShineReveille will probably air midseason, which means it will possibly directly compete against “American Idol” and “The X-Factor”. And it will also become the third dancing competition series on TV, joining FOX’s “So You Think You Can Dance” and ABC’s “Dancing With The Stars”. Let the best dance competition win!
