The male coaches are expected to further strengthen their respective teams to ensure that one of their artists will win the highly coveted title “The Voice of the Philippines” after Team Lea’s Mitoy and Team Sarah’s Lyca Gairanod were declared grand winners in “The Voice” Season 1 and “The Voice Kids,” respectively.

This weekend (Jan 24 and 25), the top-rating and Twitter-trending singing competition begins its Live Shows, with the Top 6 artists of each team looking ahead to the grand finals. This time, viewers are added to the competition equation as they vote for their favorite artists.

Representing their teams in the Live Shows this Saturday are Daryl Ong, Ferns Tosco, and Suy Galvez for Team Apl; Poppert Bernadas, Monique Lualhati, and Jason Fernandez for Team Sarah; Rita Martinez, Kai Honasan, and Karlo Mojica for Team Bamboo; and Nino Alejandro, Abbey Pineda, and Leah Patricio for Team Lea.

The voting will open after the performances of the 12 artists and will close during Sunday’s Live Shows. Just like in the first season, the artist from each team who gets the highest percentage of votes will be the first to move on in the competition. The coach will then have to choose who between his or her two remaining artists gets to stay and gets eliminated.

Who will be saved by the viewing public? Which artists will be sent home by their coaches?

Don’t miss the Live Shows in “The Voice of the Philippines” Season 2 this Saturday (Jan 24), 8:45PM and Sunday (Jan 25), 8:30 PM on ABS-CBN.
