Former American Idol star Kara DioGuardi has found herself a new television talent show to judge – Going Platinum for US TV network Bravo.

The songwriter competition programme will follow 12 musicians as they face a series of songwriting challenges, which will require them to write and perform songs with different themes and using multiple genres.

And, unlike American Idol, the judges will rank the contestants rather than viewers at home.

The 39-year-old songwriter, told People.com: "Hit songs are the backbone of the music industry, and as a publisher, nothing excites me more than finding new songwriting talent.

"I am happy to be a part of a show that helps up-and-coming songwriters pursue their dreams, while giving the public a look into the creative process."

According to reports, the show will be hosted by singer Jewel and the winner will receive a $100,000 prize, as well as recording and music-publishing deals.
