In a move sure to upset nobody and prompt measured reaction from all, CBS says "One Shining Moment" is getting a Luther Vandross-free makeover.
CBS and Turner say no Luther Vandross or Jennifer Hudson for "One Shining Moment" this year. New artist coming.

Maybe this one sticks; CBS tried this once already, subbing out Luther for Hudson in the post-Tourney montage a few years ago, but walked it back after folks blew a collective gasket.
One potential choice that just seems to make sense, and is based on no knowledge whatsoever: John Legend.
