SBS6 is launching a new music program titled 'Sing With Me', premiering on Saturday evening. The show features unknown artists performing on stage, with the opportunity to sing duets alongside established Dutch artists including Yves Berendse, Nick Schilder, Waylon, and Davina Michelle. [1]

Davina Michelle offers specific advice to contestants regarding the competition's outcome: losing the show does not signify the end of a musical career. Her comments are directed at participants of 'Sing With Me', drawing from her own experiences as a former contestant. [1]

The format of 'Sing With Me' allows talents to begin their performances independently. If the featured artists believe a song suits them and can add value, they join the stage to perform a duet. Should a second artist join, the performance evolves into a group number, aiming to create a 'magical moment' through collaborative improvement of the track. [1]

While the contestants are primarily new talents, some have appeared in previous television programs. Michelle notes that individuals from the show 'We Want More', where she previously served as a judge, and participants from 'The Voice of Holland' are also competing in this edition. [1]

Before achieving fame, Davina Michelle participated in the talent show 'Idols' in 2016. She was eliminated during the duets round. This experience taught her that elimination is not necessarily the end of a career, a perspective she shares with current contestants. [1]

Michelle draws a parallel between herself and Nick Schilder, who competed in the second edition of 'Idols' in 2003. Schilder finished in thirteenth place but later achieved significant success with his duo Simon & Schipper. Michelle emphasizes that the artists on 'Sing With Me' are not amateurs but skilled singers who have passed auditions. [1]

According to Michelle, a song might not fit an artist's voice perfectly, or the collaborating artists may not be able to form a suitable duet, leading to the artist's removal from the next round. However, she argues that participation leaves a lasting impression and an online audition record. Following her own 'Idols' audition, she received an offer from the team she still works with to write a song, proving that a loss can still lead to career opportunities. [1]
