Are Tapped to Hit the Stage in This Six-Week Competition

America Will Decide On The Winner
NEW YORK, Oct. 5 -- They can act, model and even box, but can
they sing? That's the question VH1 will ask and answer this fall with the new
series "But Can They Sing?" when nine celebrities vie for the chance to prove
to America whether they should stick to their day job or tough it out over six
weeks to become a pop star.
Actors Morgan Fairchild, Joe Pantaliano, Bai Ling, Antonio Sabato, Jr,
Michael Copon, model Kim Alexis, Carmine Gotti, heavyweight champion Larry
Holmes and Latin entertainer/journalist Myrka Dellanos have been chosen to
compete against one another in this new original series premiering Sunday,
October 30 at 10PM*.
Each week, these hopefuls will undergo grueling and intensive training
with two prominent vocal coaches and one movement/dance instructor to prepare
for their performance in front of a live studio audience at the end of the
week.
VH1 will then turn the decision over to America, who will have the chance
through online voting at VH1's broadband network Vspot (vspot.vh1.com), text
messaging and a toll free number, to decide who stays and who goes home. The
winner of the competition will receive a cash donation to their favorite
charity.
* all times ET/PT
