Rising Star is an American reality television singing competition which began airing on ABC on June 22, 2014. It is based on the Israeli singing competition HaKokhav HaBa (meaning "The Next Star") made by Keshet Broadcasting Ltd. The program format lets viewers vote for contestants via mobile apps. It is filmed live in Los Angeles.[1] The show is also carried in Canada, with advertising simultaneous substitution and voting access on CTV.[2] Jesse Kinch was the winner of Rising Star's first season with a vote of 76%. Rising star will come back for a second season.

Format

In contrast to other singing competition TV shows which feature a cast of celebrity judges, Rising Star features a cast of celebrity experts and considers the viewers at home the judges.[3] During each performance, the audience at home is able to decide in real time whether or not a contestant is sent through to the next round by using a mobile voting app.[4]


While the viewers at home are considered the “judges”, the expert panelists (Brad Paisley, Kesha, and Ludacris)[5] also influence the vote. For the first six shows, a yes vote from one of the judges added 7% to the performers total. In the round of 13 it was announced that their yes vote would add 5%. In the quarterfinals the expert's yes vote was lowered to a 3% add. In the semifinals, the expert's yes vote was lowered to a 1% add. In the finale, the expert's yes vote only counts as a home judge vote.

Auditions

Each performance begins with the contestant singing behind a screen (“The Wall”).[6] Once the contestant reaches 70% of "Yes" votes, the wall is raised and the contestant goes to the next round of the competition. Alongside the viewers' vote, three of the panelists (excluding the host) have 7% of the vote each, which will be added should they vote "Yes". [1]

Duels

Contestants who make it through the auditions are paired by the judges to face off in a duel (in the event of an odd number of contestants making it through, the contestant who had the highest number of East Coast and West Coast votes but did not make it through the auditions is given a slot in the duels). The first contestant to sing, chosen by a coin toss before the show, sings with the wall up and sets the benchmark for the second contestant. The second contestant sings with the wall down. If the second contestant betters the first contestant's vote total, the wall rises and the second contestant is through to the next round while the first contestant is eliminated; if the second contestant fails to raise the wall, the second contestant is eliminated and the first contestant is through. Also, the losing contestant with the highest number of West Coast votes in each episode is given a save and is through the next round.

The Round of Thirteen

After the duel rounds end, 13 of the contestants that survived perform. The first 7 contestants perform with the wall up, after which the contestant with the lowest vote total is placed in the hot seat. The subsequent contestants perform with the wall down, and they have to better the vote total of the contestant in the hot seat to raise the wall. If they succeed in doing so, the contestant in the hot seat is eliminated, the contestant with the next lowest vote total is placed in the hot seat, and the performing contestant is provisionally qualified; otherwise, the performing contestant is eliminated if they fail to raise the wall. This continues until the six contestants with the lowest number of votes are eliminated. In addition, the eliminated contestant with the highest number of West Coast votes in each episode is given a save and is through the next round. In this stage, each panelist's vote counts as 5%.

Quarterfinals & Semifinals

The quarterfinals and semifinals follow the same format as the Round of Thirteen, except with a few changes to the weightage of the panelists' votes and number of contestants. In the quarterfinals, eight contestants battle for six spots (including the West Coast save), and each panelist's vote counts as 3%. In the semifinals, six contestants battle for four spots (including the West Coast save), and each panelist's vote counts as 1%.

Finale

During the finale, contestants are paired into a duel. The first contestant sings with the wall up and sets the benchmarks for the second contestant. The second contestant sings with the wall down. If the second contestant gets the higher percentage of votes, then the wall rises and the second contestant moves onto the next round of duels. However, if the second contestant's percentage is lower than the first contestant's, the wall stays down and the contestant is eliminated. In the second round, the two contestants that moved on will duel against each other with their second song. The same process applies for this round, except the running vote total is not revealed and both contestants sing with the wall up. The contestant with the higher vote percentage becomes the winner of Rising Star. The experts' yes vote counts as a home vote as they vote with their phones; their choices are not revealed to both the performers and the audience. The West Coast cannot vote during the finale.

Time zones

Due to the effects of time zones on North American broadcasting, the show is broadcast at 9 PM EDT in the Eastern, Central, and Mountain Time Zones. Thus, the program airs at 7 PM Mountain time, with Wipeout airing at 9 PM Pacific.[7] Additionally, the network's affiliates in the Caribbean Sea region, including Aguadilla, Puerto Rico's WPRU-LP and WSVI in the United States Virgin Islands broadcast the series live, despite being an hour ahead in the Atlantic Time Zone (as they both take ABC's Eastern feed an hour ahead).

In the state of Arizona, which does not observe Daylight Saving Time, the program airs live at 6 PM Mountain Standard Time. For Pacific and Alaskan time zone viewers, a dedicated feed is provided to show real-time voting particular to these viewers and a comparison to how the earlier time zones voted. In an instance where a contestant who didn't pass based on viewers from the Eastern, Central, and Mountain Time Zones, yet ends up faring better with the Pacific and Alaskan time zones, the contestant will pass. In addition, a "West Coast save" is given to the losing contestant (in the East Coast) with the highest number of West Coast votes in the subsequent rounds.

As Alaska is one hour before the Pacific Time Zone, and programming normally airs similar to Central and Mountain time, Alaskans are able to participate live as well. However, residents of Hawaii will not be able to participate since Hawaii time is two hours ahead of Pacific Time, and residents of the Mariana Islands, including Guam, cannot participate as well (since most of ABC affiliate KTGM's programming is a day ahead of the rest of the mainland United States).

Live cut-ins to show reactions of contestants who passed only with West Coast viewers will be provided. There was no revocation of "pass" status should west coast viewers reject a contestant, until later rounds when the west coast would choose one finalist. ABC has stated that the chances of the West Coast differing substantially from other viewers is statistically small.[8][9]

For CTV viewers in Canada, broadcasts originally followed the ABC model, but switched partway through the season so all CTV stations across Canada aired the show live with the Eastern feed.
