Korean shows, popularized by K-dramas, have taken American television by storm. Following the smashing success of 'The Masked Singer' – a top-secret singing competition in which celebrities face off against one another – we have another Korean show adapted for our viewing pleasure. TBS' upcoming show 'Celebrity Show-Off' based on the popular Korean reality show 'My Little Television' will soon be gracing our screens.

Here is all you need to know about the upcoming show:

Release date

'Celebrity Show-Off' is all set to make its premiere on Tuesday, June 23 at 10 pm ET/PT on TBS. 

Plot

Would you like to see some of the unique and hidden talents possessed by your favorite celebrity? Then look no further than 'Celebrity Show-Off'.

Several celebrities like Diplo, NeNe Leakes, Bella Thorne and Ja Rule will compete with each other to show off their talents. Each week celebrities will be given a chance to record some captivating content that will be shared on social media. There are no restrictions on the type of content that can be created. At the end of each week, the celebrities will be judged, based on the number of views that their video garnered, user engagement, and even the duration of each user's session. Whichever celebrity has the lowest numbers on the specified parameters will be eliminated and replaced by a new celebrity.
