HOW THE COMPETITION WORKS
An independent panel of judges will rate each contestant. Contestants will be judged on their singing ability, star quality, costuming, and audience appeal.
During open rounds, the four highest scoring contestants will advance to the semifinal round. Audiences will have a chance to vote for their fan favorite, with the fan favorite winner also advancing to the semifinal round. There will not be fan favorite voting during the semifinal or final rounds.
During the semifinal round, the 10 highest scoring contestants will advance to the final. In the event of a tie, a sing-off will be held to determine which contestant will move on.
