Madonna is launching a new talent initiative in a bid to find the next cyberspace superstars. The pop superstar's production company, Maverick, has teamed with Madison Road Entertainment to develop talent search Big Shot, which will launch in September.

The idea of the project is to encourage wannabe actors, magicians, singers and entertainers to post video clips of themselves to the Big Shot website, while other visitors pick their favorites.

The winner of each week's video entry lottery will then be flown to Hollywood to audition in front of a talent scout.

For wannabe actors, the opportunity to appear in a Maverick produced TV show or movie could be their prize.
