NASHVILLE � November 17, 2009 � The buzz is back as CMT's hit series, THE SINGING BEE, returns for a second season beginning Friday, January 15 at 9:00 p.m., ET/PT.

Full episodes of the first season of THE SINGING BEE are available online at http://www.cmt.com/shows/series/singing_bee/episodes.jhtml.

Blending a mix of country music with popular favorites from other genres, THE SINGING BEE tests contestants' knowledge of lyrics to well-known songs and those who fail to accurately sing the correct lyrics are eliminated from the competition.

She has appeared on television in many shows including, "Rita Rocks," "Just Shoot Me," "Surviving Surburbia," the ABC pilot "Cedric," and the Fox pilot "Living with Abandon." Peterman has done voiceovers for "The Pitts" and "American Dad." She recently starred in the independent comedy feature, "Dirty Politics." Additionally, she opened for Reba McEntire and Kelly Clarkson on their "2 Worlds, 2 Voices" Tour. A familiar face on CMT, Peterman hosted the series CMT COMEDY STAGE and the special REDNECK DREAMS for the network. She is committed to many charities including Muhammad Ali's "Celebrity Fight Night," Habitat for Humanity, The Red Cross, and the non-profit Buzzworks Theatre Company.
