10 SONGS, 10 MISSING LYRICS, 1 MILLION DOLLARS, IF YOU "DON'T FORGET THE LYRICS!"
Wayne Brady to Host New Game Show This Summer on FOX
"'Cause this is thriller, thriller night ..." Can you sing the next verse? We all think we know the words to the world's most popular songs, but when there's a million dollars at stake, will contestants be able to keep singing when the music stops? Or will they be at a loss for words? Wayne Brady hosts the new game show DON'T FORGET THE LYRICS! premiering Wednesday, July 11 (9:30-10:00 PM ET/PT) and Thursday, July 12 (8:30-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
On DON'T FORGET THE LYRICS! contestants will choose songs from different genres, decades and musical artists. Then they'll take center stage to sing alongside the studio band as the lyrics are projected on screen � but suddenly the music will stop and the words will disappear. Will the contestants belt out the correct missing lyric, or freeze under pressure?
After each correct response, contestants must decide to "Stay & Play" or "Take the Money & Run." If they sing 9 songs correctly, they are presented with a No. 1 hit and one final missing lyric for the top prize of $1 million. It's that simple: 10 songs, 10 missing lyrics, 1 million dollars.
