The top 10 contestants were selected after a rigorous selection process by the judges. Vocal delivery, confidence, uniqueness, and stagecraft were some of the criteria used to narrow down the field from over 300 participants.
The shortlisted participants had one more opportunity to impress the judges during the second round of the day, in order to be part of the top 10.
Speaking to the judges, they said, “We have got some really good singers, and I think they are workable. I was impressed by a few of them, which is a good thing, because we really want amazing singers on the show this season. I think so far, so good.”
When asked what he was looking for in the competition, another judge said, “I’m looking for a lot of things, such as dedication, contestants putting themselves into what they do, listening to instructions and advice, especially getting themselves into a space where they can improve themselves or their voices during the period of the show. So they need to learn.”
