Lil’ Kim has been tapped to be a judge for the CW network’s upcoming
reality TV series, "Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll."

Kim will be one of the judges to pick the Pussycat Dolls‘
seventh member from a pack of nine contestants who will live together in Los
Angeles throughout the eight-episode series. "The Pussycat Dolls is one
of my favorite groups. It’s a no brainer to have me here. A lot of them [the
Dolls] tell me they’ve patterned things they do after me," Kim told attendees
at the CW Winter 2007 Press Tour.

Show producer and Geffen Records executive Ron Fair, who also serves as a judge
on the show, agreed that Kim is a valuable asset to the program, "She has
an enormous amount of musical credibility. She’s one of the pillars of hip-hop."
PCD founder Robin Antin will round out the judging panel.

"Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll" is set to
premiere on the CW network on Tuesday, March 6 at 9 p.m. EST.
