Wish granted: Amy Grant to host new NBC show

Christian and pop music star Amy Grant has been tapped to host "Three Wishes," an NBC pilot/special. She and the show's team of experts will make a variety of wishes come true for participants, such as aiding a family with a member's life-threatening medical crisis, helping to save a teacher's job and giving someone a chance to live out a sports fantasy.

Grant says she is not a big TV watcher and doesn't indulge in reality TV programming, but she really liked the concept for "Three Wishes."

"I met with the producers and was captivated by the stories, which I'm not supposed to talk about because it's like telling what the end of the book is," she says.

On the music side, Grant's 20th album, "Rock of Ages . . . Hymns & Faith," arrives May 3.
