Sing If You Can

Sing If You Can is a British game show broadcast on ITV. It features celebrities attempting to sing in front of a live studio audience whilst various attempts are made to disrupt their performances. It is presented by Keith Lemon and Stacey Solomon, though originally Vernon Kay was scheduled to host, but he felt that it would be better hosted by a comedian. The show was sponsored by Argos, supporting the charity Teenage Cancer Trust.

Format
Six celebrities are divided into two teams, each with a captain. After the celebrity has performed, a three-person judging panel views their thoughts. After all six celebrities have performed, the audience vote to decide which team wins. The losing team captain is dropped into a tank of water, and the winning team then perform a final song on a spinning stage. The amount of money to be donated to charity increases as the stage spins, and the longer the celebrities stay on the stage, the more money they win. The show raised money for the Teenage Cancer Trust.

 * Notes


 * 1) In India, the Tamil show Y this Kolaveri is loosely based on Killer Karaoke/Sing If You Can, as it deals with participants having to sing while avoiding challenging situations. Unlike its American counterpart, the obstacles in this show are far less severe and are restricted to conditions like "standing on a two-tonne block of ice" and "walking blindfolded through a cactus maze".
 * 2) In Indonesia and Portugal, both Indonesian and Portuguese versions are based on the Killer Karaoke format, this show is in collaboration with the production of Fremantle.
