It looks like Michael Bolton's trading tunes for TV.

According to THR, the singer is set to star in the ABC comedy pilot "Michael Bolton's Daughter Is Ruining My Life," based on "Go On" actress Allison Miller's experience with celebrities when she first moved to L.A. Bolton will play a fictional version of himself.

The Grammy winner also appeared on CBS' "Two And A Half Men" earlier this season and made a notable appearance on "Saturday Night Live" as a Jack Sparrow superfan.
