For those who are fans of these singing competitions. This one is..... well you decide.

‘Alter Ego’: Alanis Morissette, Grimes, Nick Lachey & Will.iam Sets As Judges, Rocsi Diaz To Host

Fox’s Alter Ego has set its judges.

Alanis Morissette, Grimes, Nick Lachey & will.iam are to join the judges table of the new Fox music format with Rocsi Diaz set as host.

The show, which will air after The Masked Singer on the fall schedule, is an avatar singing competition that will see singers become stars performing as their dream reinventions. It is exec produced by Matilda Zoltowski and is produced by Fox Alternative Entertainment.

It is a slightly unexpected lineup. While Lachey co-host Love Is Blind and featured on Fox’s The Masked Singer and will.i.am serves as a coach on the UK version of The Voice, Morissette and Grimes are making their network competition judging debuts.

Morissette, best known for her Jagged Little Pill album, has history with Fox, having recurred on animated series The Great North. Grimes, whose real name is Claire Boucher, recently released her concept album Miss Anthropocene but is best known as the partner of Tesla founder Elon Musk.

Rocsi Diaz, who co-host music show 106 & Park, Dating Naked and Cannonball, will host.

Alter Ego merges talent and technology to revolutionize the singing competition show in only a way Fox can do,” said Rob Wade, Fox Entertainment’s President of Alternative Entertainment and Specials. “We are so excited to bring the fantastic will.i.am, Alanis, Grimes, Nick and Rocsi together as they search for the next big singing star, allowing incredible vocalists a chance to realize their dreams and perform like never before.”

Why is seeing who's singing a song such a bad thing these days?

I guess The Voice kind of set that in motion, judge a show by the voice alone, not what they look like nor dress, move, dance, etc. Win on pure talent alone.

Meet the colorful avatars of Fox's new singing competition Alter Ego — from Lover Boy to Fern

Get an exclusive first look.

Unless technology has advanced far beyond what I imagined, I highly doubt anyone is actually seeing these avatars on stage like the previews make it look like. Everyone is probably watching a screen of these things, but they will make it seem like they are on stage for TV.
That judging panel. Wow! 🤣

Nick Lachey previews 'radical' new singing competition Alter Ego: 'It's just a trip'

This one won't be making it to my DVR this year. If it turns out to be amazing, I'll binge it later on streaming.
We like singing competitions but I don't have high hopes for this one.
‘Alter Ego’ on Fox Is a Holographic Pop-Star ‘Idol’ That Falls Flat: TV Review

I'm sure this is going to be filled with a bunch of sob stories.
"Ugh, I'm too fat. Ugh, I'm too ugly. Ugh, I'm too shy to perform in front of people."

My wife saw a commercial for this and said, "Oooh, can we watch that one?" Ugh. Can't say no to the lady but this looks bad. Looks like the iPad will get a work out.
This was bad, real bad. Concept was just lame, the judges are just watching a TV screen but trying to pretend like they are looking down at the stage. Will I Am said like a million times it was the greatest thing ever and the best technology he had ever seen (guess he doesn't go to movies much). Annoying and just bad.

Thanks for confirming my suspicions. :)

I just knew technology wasn't so far advanced that it would look like the previews.
Glad I didn't waste my time.
