Hollywood royalty Reese Witherspoon is hankering to be crowned queen of the country music biz, so she's producing a TV singing competition to rival The Voice, RadarOnline.com has learned.
The Southern sweetheart — who flaunted her musical chops in her Oscar-winning role as Nashville legend June Carter Cash in the 2005 film, Walk The Line — will launch Apple TV's My Kind of Country on March 24, and tipsters snitched that Reese believes it will succeed where NBC's series has failed.
"The Voice has gotten great ratings over 22 seasons, but the one thing the show has not done is have a winner go on to have a big singing career," claimed the source.

The spy squealed that savvy Reese, 46, has done her homework on small-screen singing contests and studied how American Idol became a hit with the rise of season one champ Kelly Clarkson.

But moles whispered the ambitious belle also has an ace up her sleeve — buddy Blake Shelton, who's wrapping up his last season coaching on The Voice.
