NBC has tapped former N’Syncer Joey Fatone to host their upcoming summer variety game show ‘The Singing Bee,’ debuting on July 10.

A series set to test contestants knowledge of song lyrics, each episode will kick off with the studio audience joining in song, eight competitors will be selected. Contestants compete in a series of karaoke-like challenges in which lyrics to popular songs must be sung to the letter.

“This fun-filled family show is going to have viewers singing along with their TV sets,” said Craig Plestis, executive vice president of NBC Entertainment. “We are also thrilled to have Joey on board to host. He brings an added burst of energy and a legion of fans with his musical talent and infectious personality.”

Joey previously hosted ‘Fame,’ a Debbie Allen produced ‘American Idol-esque’ summer talent search, for the network.
