Your Face Sounds Familiar is a singing and impersonation competition for celebrities and is based on the Spanish version of the same name. It aired on March 14, 2015 in ABS-CBN and is hosted by Billy Crawford. Jed Madela, Gary Valenciano, and Sharon Cuneta served as the show's judges.[1][2][3][4]

Development

The Philippine version was first announced by ABS-CBN in its trade show for advertisers in Rockwell Tent, Makati City. In this show, 8 celebrities will compete in a sing and dance number while impersonating iconic singers. Each week, the "Iconizer" (called the "Randomizer" in other franchises) will assign the artists of whom they will impersonate.[1]

The show replaced the time slot of the second season of the The Voice of the Philippines which ended on March 1, 2015.[5]

On March 9, 2015, Sharon Cuneta made a comeback in ABS-CBN; one of her first projects would be to sit as a judge in the show with Madela and Valenciano.[3][6] In earlier announcements, Toni Gonzaga was reported as one of the judges; however, she was replaced by Cuneta.[7] Every week, the performers would be guided by Annie Quintos and Teacher Georcelle of the G-Force for vocals and choreography respectively.

On April 18, 2015, Gary Valenciano temporarily left the show to fulfill his commitment of performing in a series of concerts in Papua New Guinea, Spain and Qatar. He was substituted by Boy Abunda.[4]

Format

For 13 weeks, all the celebrity contestants will compete for a cash prize, half of which will go to their chosen charity. The contestant with the highest points per week will become the weekly winner, and will receive 100,000 pesos. The top four contestants will compete for the public's votes, wherein the one with the highest votes will be declared the winner.[8][9]

Prize

Every week the winner will win a cash prize of 100,000 pesos, half will be given to his or her chosen charity. The grand prize is 2 million pesos.[1][2]
