Former American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi has landed right back on her feet after being dumped earlier this year. Her new Bravo gig will be as head judge on a songwriting competition called Going Platinum.

Contestants will be pitted against each other as they live together and vie for the grand prize of $100,000. Kara will lead the judges panel and singer-songwriter Jewel will serve as host of the 10-episode series.

DioGuardi is no stranger to songwriting or rocking a bikini. She has written hit songs for Carrie Underwood and Pink.

Going Platinum will premiere in 2011.
