Fox Is Launching New Singing Competition Show Using Avatars

Grimes, Alanis Morissette, will.i.am., Nick Lachey, and Rosci Diaz are all a part of new singing competition series called Alter Ego, set to air on Wednesdays this fall on Fox.  They are calling it the “the world’s first avatar singing competition series,” making use of motion capture technology to portray contestants’ “dream avatars.” Unlike the wildly popular “The Masked Singer”, this show will take a cue from “The Voice” in trying to find the next big star in “only a way Fox can do.”

No word on an exact premiere date.
