The lesser-known but arguably hipper R&B singer John Legend is replacing Lionel Richie on ABC's heavily-hyped summer reality comp--Richie claims scheduling conflicts, even though he was in the promos for the series with his fellow star performers Kelly Clarkson, Jennifer Nettles of the country duo Sugarland and Robin Thicke (yes, Alan's kid): http://www.deadline.com/2012/04/john-legend-to-replace-lionel-richie-on-abcs-new-music-reality-series-duets/ And I assume most of you have seen the promo parodying the famous Apple "1984" commercial, where this time the runner throws a mike into the screen of snooty Brits, ditzy blondes saying "pitchy" and a black guy saying "yo, dawg"--gosh, I wonder who they're referring to?
