Challenges

[edit]

Each episode, with the guidance of the six celebrity coaches, the contestants compete in the following challenges;

  • Leaders Challenge: In this first test, each contestant from the Chilean group gets paired together with a contestant from the opposing group of "foreigners" to form duos. Together, they must impersonate a celebrity à la Season 1's Artistic Challenge. The duo that succeeds earned immunity and the power of leadership over both respective groups.
  • Artistic Challenge: In this second test, the remaining contestants compete within their respective teams (one team consisting of the Chileans and the other consisting of the "foreigners") in a performance-based Artistic Challenge, similar to that of Season 1. Both groups compete in one Imitation Challenge each. The lowest performing contestant gets nominated by the judges to be a duelist in the Extreme Imitation Duel.
  • Extreme Imitation Duel: The two lowest scoring performers in each of the teams' Artistc Challenges go up against each other in an extreme, rapid-paced Imitation challenge, in which they must transform into famous pop singers and perform a number within a given timeframe, with the assistance of their respective team leaders. The loser of this duel effectively drags their entire team to the Elimination Gala.
  • Elimination Gala (Singing Challenge): The team whose member lost the previous duel must compete against her teammates in a singing gala à la Season 1, where their performances are ranked in a numeration from 1 to 7 by each judge, with the lowest scoring performer converting into a duelist for the Elimination Duel.
  • Elimination Duel: The lowest scored performer in the Elimination Gala is put up against the duelist nominated from one of the other challenges. They both perform a live song of their choosing and the judges vote by majority who shall be eliminated.
