Uri Geller seeks protege

Spoonbending psychic Uri Geller is looking for a protege. The forum for the selection process? A new reality TV show produced in Geller's birth country of Israel. According to Geller, the show will be similar to American Idol with ten contestants trying to dazzle the judges. From Reuters:

Geller, 59, declined to elaborate on what supernatural skills the contestants claim to have, and whether clairvoyants — who might be assumed to have an edge in predicting judges' votes — are taking part. He described the prize, simply, as "huge"…

"This is not a show where people have to prove to me that they are for real," Geller said, adding that he has no plans to retire. "I just want to be amazed."
