Goodbye Mary Murphy, hello Paula Abdul!!
Paula Abdul is set to return to Fox in a big way, but no she’s not headed back to American Idol.
The iconic singer/dancer/choreographer is set to replace exiting judge, Mary Murphy, on So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD)!
Paula will join long time judge, producer Nigel Lythgoe, as well as singer/dancer Jason Derulo.
Cat Deeley will also return to host.
The upcoming season of the long running Fox hit will feature, for the first time, a “Street Vs Stage” concept. More details are sure to emerge the closer we get to the summer return.
Paula released a statement on joining the program:
I have dedicated a large part of my career as a choreographer to discovering and mentoring some of the most iconic artists and performers from all over the world.
So You Think You Can Dance has a long-standing history of launching brilliant careers for young choreographers and dancers in the industry. It’s going to be a true honor and pleasure joining this panel with Jason and Nigel, and I’m looking forward to an exciting new season.
