A second season was announced on 2017, but was canceled on the same year. [1] [2] As of January 2024, it is unknown if a second season will be reconsidered.

Production

Based on the original UK show, and an addition to The X Factor franchise, the series found new singing talent (solo artists and groups ages 16 and over), drawn from public auditions, and they competed against each other for votes.

The winner was determined by the show's viewers via telephone, the Internet, and SMS text voting, and was awarded a recording contract with Sony Music Brasil.

The original judging panel consisted of Rick Bonadio, Alinne Rosa, Di Ferrero and Paulo Miklos, with Fernanda Paes Leme as main host and Mauricio Meirelles as social media correspondent. [3]

In November 2016, it was confirmed that the programme would be returning for a second season, airing in 2017. However, it was later cancelled in July 2017. [1]

Format

Categories

The show is primarily concerned with identifying singing talent, though appearance, personality, stage presence and dance routines are also an important element of many performances. Each judge is assigned one of four categories: "Boys" (aged 16–24 males), "Girls" (aged 16–24 females), "Over 25s" (solo acts aged 25 and over), and "Groups" (including duos). Through the live shows, the judges act as mentors to their category, helping to decide song choices, styling and staging, while judging contestants from other categories.

Stages

There are five stages to the competition:
