The first taping for “Duets,” ABC’s version of “The Voice,” started this week.
“Duets” is a one-of-a-kind singing competition that takes the Superstars out from behind the judges’ panel and onto the stage. Quddus will host, as music stars Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Nettles, John Legend Robin Thicke set out on individual journeys across America looking for undiscovered talent worthy of being their proteges. Ultimately, each Superstar will choose two singers for their duet partners. Together, the Superstar and the protege will take the stage each week and perform in front of a live studio audience. In the end, only one duet will be at the top of the charts, and the winning amateur will receive a recording contract with Hollywood Records.

“Duets” is a production of Keep Calm and Carry On Productions. Emmy-winner Robert Deaton (“The CMA Awards”) is the executive producer. Emmy winner Charles Wachter (“Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution”) is the co-executive producer.
