Crews 
We told you yesterday that BET had teamed up with reality TV mastermind Carlos King for a new reality series titled ‘BET Presents The Encore‘ which will unite several R&B singers from various groups together to form a SUPERGROUP as part of the new series.
As confirmed, the series brings together Shamari DeVoe (Blaque), Irish Grinstead (702), Lemisha Grinstead (702), Nivea Nash, Fallon & Felisha King (Cherish), Pamela Long (Total), Aubrey O’Day (Danity Kane), and Kiely Williams (3LW) as they move in one house, and compete, rehearse, and work together to form the next R&B supergroup.
BET released an official press release on the show:
With nothing to lose and everything to gain, these talented singers turned wives, moms, and entrepreneurs, will move in together, write new music, learn choreography, record an album, and put on a live performance. The catch? The songstresses must achieve this in only 30 days, with none of them knowing who their bandmates will be ahead of time. Faced with fun twists and unforeseen constraints, the ladies will need to stretch beyond their musical and personal comfort zones to succeed as a team. Will their artistic differences or egos get in the way of forming a group? Or will these powerhouse women show the world that they still have what it takes to make a major comeback? Only time, and the music, will tell.
Each week the group will get assists for their album prep from music producer Kosine, choreographer Aliya Janell, songwriter Elijah Blake and vocal coach Cynnamyn.
The show was initially conceived by King years ago and a pilot was shot. After a scene from the series featuring Williams and former Destiny’s Child member Farrah Franklin resurfaced last year and went viral, it sparked interest in a project in the same vein.
