The third season of StarStruck (also known as StarStruck: The Nationwide Invasion) premiered on December 5, 2005. The council was formed with Joey de Leon, Louie Ignacio, and Lorna Tolentino representing it. The show was co-hosted by Dingdong Dantes, Jolina Magdangal, and Raymond Gutierrez.

Overview

The third season of StarStruck, like the previous ones, was announced once again on GMA Network's variety program SOP, where the hosts Dingdong Dantes, Jolina Magdangal, and Raymond Gutierrez (a new host) invited teenagers from 15 to 21 years old to audition for the next and upcoming StarStruck season. Like its previous seasons, auditions were held at SM Supermalls throughout the Philippines. SM Supermalls was one of the show's biggest sponsors.

There were slight changes made in the show. "The Council" welcomed Lorna Tolentino, who replaced Ida Henares. Also, a new rule was added. This time, from the "two Ultimate Survivors", an "Ultimate Sole Survivor" will be picked and will win more than 10 million pesos' worth of prizes, consisting of an exclusive GMA talent management contract, a new house and lot, a large cash prize and a livelihood showcase.

The Final 14 Survivors

When the "Final 14" were chosen, where one (JD Flores) had to quit for academic reasons, eventually replaced by another semi-finalist, they were assigned to different challenges every week that honed their acting, singing, and dancing abilities. In the first two seasons, StarStruck was shown on weekdays with Friday as Elimination Night; in this season Mondays to Fridays were tests and Sundays was the elimination night.

Computer Controversy

A controversial incident happened in the sixth week of Season 3. StarStruck Council member and director Louie Ignacio revealed that someone from the remaining survivors had opened a confidential file on the show's computer and had subsequently told the other finalists about the next challenges the show has in store for them.

Those implicated were Sara Larsson, Jackie Rice and Jana Roxas, with Sara eventually ousted as the sixth finalist to bid the contest goodbye. But even with Sara Larsson eliminated, the issue did not die but grew into a big controversy with more shocking revelations and crying bouts. Jackie Rice and Jana Roxas accused another survivor, Arci Muñoz, of lying. The show aired footage captured by surveillance cameras showing the girls taking turns at the StarStruck computer, but they all denied opening the confidential file in question.

On the seventh week fifth StarStruck Avenger Sara Larsson was given time to reveal her side of the story. On that same night, Arci Muñoz was eliminated.

The Final Judgment

The Final Judgment for the third season was held on March 12, 2006 at the Marikina Sports Complex, the biggest venue in StarStruck history to avoid the recent "Wowowee Stampede Tragedy" in Philsport Arena where almost 200,000 attended in arena designed to accommodate 10,000 only. 10,000 spectators attended. Marky Cielo of Mountain Province became the First Ultimate Sole Survivor and the Ultimate Male Survivor, while Jackie Rice of Olongapo City became the Ultimate Female Survivor.

Both of them won one million pesos each and exclusive GMA Network contracts worth two million pesos each. As Ultimate Sole Survivor, Marky Cielo received a house and lot prize worth P2,500,000 , an additional P300,000 in cash, and a business package worth P1,500,000. First runner-ups Gian Carlos and Iwa Moto received P250,000 cash each and exclusive GMA Network contracts. While the Final Judgment was in progress, the third batch of the Starstruck Avengers were also given exclusive GMA contracts. The Final Judgement received a 32.7% rating.

For their first TV assignment, the Starstruck Final 4 of Marky Cielo, Jackie Rice, Iwa Moto and Gian Carlos headlined one of the episodes of Love to Love Season 10 entitled "Young at Hearts". They co-starred with veteran actors Leo Martinez and Luz Valdez and Starstruck Avengers Chuck Allie, Jana Roxas and Vaness del Moral.

The theme for the third Final Judgement was the film Gladiator.
