The Next: Fame is At Your Doorstep Preview

The CW is looking for the next big star. In the new series The Next: Fame is At Your Doorstep, aspiring musicians will get to show their talents off for the world. In a twist on the usual format, big name mentors will move in with the contestants in order to immerse themselves in the lives of these local performers and prepare them for the chance to represent their home town on stage, live, in front of America! Celebrity mentors include multi-platinum rapper and actor Nelly, the Queen of Latin Pop Gloria Estefan, country music superstar John Rich, and pop star Joe Jonas.

The Next: Fame is At Your Doorstep premieres on the CW Austin on Thursday, August 16th.
