includes Blinds Audition, Battles Rounds, Knockout Rounds, and the final live

performance phase. Only those fifteen and over are eligible for the competition. There are four coaches,

themselves well-known performing artists, who critique contestants' performances and form their own teams of

contestants and give them guidance through the rest of the season. Coaches also have the power to decide on

which contestants to advance in the next rounds. One celebrity key advisor gives assistance to the coaches and

their teams during the preparation process.

The coaches and the television audience have equal power to decide who moves on to the final four

phase. However, the winner is determined by votes from the television audience by online voting on the official

website, SMS text and iTunes stores purchases of the contestants' performances. The declared winner receives

US$ 100, 000 and a record contract with Universal Music Group.
