CBS has found the perfect man to present the "Secret Talents of the Stars" and the perfect trio to judge those talents once they're no longer actually secrets.

Premiering on Tuesday, April 8 at 10 p.m. ET (live if you're on the East Coast, canned if you're on the West Coast), "Secret Talents of the Stars" will be hosted by "Seinfeld" vet, "Dancing With the Stars" legend and general uber-host John O'Hurley.

In the first week of excitement, Clint Black will do stand-up comedy, Sasha Cohen will bend her body like a pretzel, Mya will tap-dance and George Takei will sing country.


Then judges Debbie Reynolds ("Singing in the Rain"), Brian McKnight and producer Gavin Polone ("Emily's Reasons Why Not") will tell the alleged celebrities how close they came to unveiling a real talent.

Reynolds, McKnight and Polone will be the judges throughout the competition, but as with "American Idol," their opinions are merely advisor and the American People will get to cast their own votes to determine who will stay and who will go.

CBS has also added two more stars for upcoming episodes. Jo Dee Messina -- a country singer, they say -- will demonstrate her gifts with urban dancing, while Joshua Morrow -- he seems to be on "The Young and the Restless" -- will juggle. Both Messina and Morrow will make their first appearances on the Tuesday, April 15 episode.
