At first glance, "Duets" may just seem like another reality singing competition, but the new ABC show couldn't be more different. Because this time, the superstars are not behind a judging panel, but onstage with the contestants.

The show, which premieres Thursday (May 24), pits pop star Kelly Clarkson, Sugarland singer Jennifer Nettles and R&B crooners Robin Thicke and John Legend against one another as they pair up with two amateur singers, whom they found before the show.

Each week the stars will battle it out, duet style, in front of a live audience to ultimately win the grand prize for the amateur singer: a recording contract with Hollywood Records.

"I basically just found my two people on my own," Kelly Clarkson told MTV News recently at an event announcing ABC's fall lineup. "[Robin] found them a completely different way and John found his a completely different way, it's kind of really random, but it's cool though."

Going into the competition, Clarkson figured she had a slight advantage given her experience on "American Idol," which she won during the first season. But as soon as cameras started rolling for "Duets," she realized she had her work cut out for her. "It's a lot of fun, but it's a lot of work," Clarkson admitted. "I totally thought I had a one-up from 'Idol' ... It is way harder."

"I'm just going to try and do kind of what I did on 'Idol' and hopefully that will help my people," Clarkson said. "It's not really as much up to us, the stars on the show, it's more for the kids that really just need to make sure they are bringing their A-game every week."
