Casting television
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Casting television is a competition television program where the winner wins a recording contract, or takes part in a competition.
Slovakia's competition is Superstars, and the prize is a car, cash and recording contracts. Stars such as Zdenka Predna came to prominence this way.
United Kingdom
Simon Cowell's "Popstars" is perhaps the most famous one of the lot, and other shows on a similar focus are Stars in Their Eyes, and Andrew Lloyd Webber's How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?.
