ABC‘s new reality singing show has finally come to a close, and Quddus has dressed sharply for the occasion.

Tonight‘s the first night of eliminations, but first, a Superstar duet with Jennifer Nettles and Robin Thicke (who will probably not grace the stage again tonight, unless something unpredictable happens).

After last week‘s emotional episode (and first elimination), it‘s time to lighten the mood with this week‘s theme: party songs!

It‘s time for the premiere of the newest singing competition to join the ranks of American Idol and The Voice!

This year is officially the year of reality singing competitions. To summarize: The Voice‘s second season competed against veteran American Idol this spring, the reboot of Simon Cowell‘s The X Factor (premiering this fall) involves the buzz-worthy addition of Britney Spears and Demi Lovato as judges, and now ABC has joined the genre battle with newcomer Duets, a show that brings the celebrity singers from behind the judges table to the stage, where they will sing alongside the show‘s hopefuls.

The Duets premiere is finally here! For a sneak peek at ABC‘s new singing competition, look through photos from the series premiere, where John Legend, Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Nettles and Robin Thicke will each perform with their two duets partners (for a look at the eight contestants, click here).
