Israeli formats specialist Armoza Formats, which sold the rights to NBC, is now distributing the finished tape of the US version globally.

NBC has already ordered a second eight-episode run of the show, where celebrities pair up to master a difficult act over the course of a week before performing in front of a studio audience who rate their efforts.

Singer Nicole Scherzinger was the top-scoring entertainer in the six-episode first season, which free-to-air TV New Zealand will now air on its TV2 channel.

The format is currently in production in Finland, Mexico and Spain and has previously aired in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and the Philippines.
