One of the most popular music reality shows, Pop Idol, will be launched in Bulgaria in 2007.

The Bulgarian version of the show carries the name Music Idol, avtora.com reported.

National television bTV will air Music Idol. Local famous anchors Ivan and Andrey will host the show.

Preliminary casting will be held in the cities of Bulgaria, Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, Bourgas and Rouse, in January 2007.

Everyone aged 16 to 28 could take part in the casting, avtora.com said. Only 100 candidates will be selected and invited to a second casting. A final selection of 12 show participants is to be made after the second casting.

The show will probably end by the summer of 2007. The winner will be awarded a contract to be signed with a leading production company.

Pop Idol show was launched for the first time in the UK in 2001. Versions of the show were aired in nearly 100 countries ever since.
