Nicole Scherzinger has reportedly signed up to be a judge on a new music reality series called Building The Band.

The former Pussycat Dolls singer, 46, is a familiar face in the genre, having previously judged on The X Factor on both sides of the pond, as well as Australia's Got Talent and The Masked Singer US.

According to The Sun, Building The Band - to be hosted by Backstreet Boys star AJ McLean - will follow Scherzinger and her fellow judges as they try to form a group from 50 hopefuls before they meet in person.

"Nicole is a huge coup for Netflix as she has been on so many talent shows in the UK and the US in the past, so is synonymous with the genre. It shows how serious bosses at the streamer are about competing with the major channels," a source told the newspaper.

"Nicole is the whole package. With her experience in the industry, she also brings personality, warmth and glamour. She's perfect."

Netflix also has a similar show in the works from Scherzinger's old X Factor boss Simon Cowell, The Midas Touch, which will aim to form the next One Direction.
