|| Finalists

The search for our second "Australian Idol" has begun! Throughout April and May, the Australian Idol team of producers, judges and hosts scoured Australia for outstanding talent. Thousands of hopefuls auditioned and the Idol team were handsomely rewarded with an enormous pool of potential contestants, all vying for a place in the Idol history books. After intense debate by the selectors, these thousands of hopefuls were reduced to just 100.

The top 100 contestants went through to the next major competition round which was held over a week in June. Their performances were recorded in Sydney at the Seymour Centre. Of these 100 participants, just 30 will progress to the next performance round.

Once the top 30 have been selected, they will be split into smaller groups. Over two weeks the group of males and females will be featured on the performance shows. Viewers then have the chance to cast their vote for who progresses through to the finals. Through this voting process, the top 30 will be trimmed down to just 12 finalists.

From mid September, these ten finalists will perform in front of a massive studio audience and the show will be broadcast live from FOX Studios. At the end of each live show, the studio audience and the home viewers will be able to vote for their favourite performer through phone and SMS votes. Each week, the number of performers will be reduced until there are only two contestants left standing.

In a major live event, the final episode will feature these two aspiring stars competing for the ultimate title of Australian Idol, chosen by the national TV audience. The next Australian Idol will then be announced.
