LOS ANGELES, April 29 (UPI) -- Wayne Brady, Tim Gunn, Nick Jonas, Wynonna Judd, Jay Mohr and Martha Stewart have signed up for the U.S. television special "I Get That a Lot," CBS said.

The new 1-hour special features celebrities working regular jobs and tricking everyday citizens in a case of supposedly mistaken identity. It is to be broadcast May 19.

"Celebrity participants include Wayne Brady working behind the front desk at a nice hotel, style icon Tim Gunn behind the counter at a fast-food joint, The Jonas Brothers' Nick Jonas working at a girls' clothing shop, country superstar Wynonna Judd selling tires, Jay Mohr as a coffee-house barista and television host and lifestyle expert Martha Stewart as a craft store employee," CBS said in a news release.

The first installment of "I Get That a Lot" debuted April 1, 2009, and was a ratings hit. The most recent edition aired Jan. 6 of this year and also proved popular with viewers, CBS said.
