BBC Radio 1's Jordan North and pop icon Jason Derulo are fronting a new and "not like anything else" talent show.
The I'm A Celebrity winner appeared alongside Derulo on The One Show yesterday promoting their new TV show, Project Icon.
Also appearing on the show is Derulo's long-term manager, Frank Harris. He will act as a mentor on the new series, alongside singer Becky Hill.
Project Icon, according to Derulo is "...not like any other talent show you've seen on TV before. This is completely different, give it a go."
Hosted by Jordan North, Project Icon sees 10 unsigned UK artists competing for the attention of global singer-songwriter Jason Derulo and his long-time business partner, music mogul Frank Harris. They are joined by double Brit Award winner, Becky Hill, who knows exactly what it takes to go from talent show competitor to superstar.
