Already a worldwide television sensation, "Performing As"…, known
as "Soundmix" and "Stars in Their Eyes" in Europe, currently airs in
10 countries with 62 cumulative seasons produced.
Millions of Americans dream of becoming their favorite musical icons. "Performing As"… will turn those dreams into reality with a once-in-a- lifetime chance for ordinary people to be transformed into their favorite music superstars.
In June 2003, hundreds of "regular" people turned out for auditions, with the hope of making their dreams come true. Through elaborate hair,
make-up, costuming, and precision choreography, amateur performers
will have the chance to sing in their own voices in front of a live studio audience.
They use their own voices, but look just like their favorite musical superstars. Each week, five contestants will compete, and one winner will be crowned by an elite jury of music industry professionals. That winner earns the chance to return for the final episode, where winners of all the past episodes will compete for a grand prize.
Michael John was one of the contestants on the show, performing as Billy Joel on two episodes.
"Performing As"… is produced by Endemol USA, the leading producer of television programming specializing in reality and non-scripted genres for network and cable television.
Endemol USA is a division of Endemol Holding, a prominent international content developer, producer and distributor of television and online programming.
David Goldberg is President of Endemol USA. The series is executive produced by John DeMol and Paul Buccieri.
