“Very excited and happy to be here.Pipiliin natin yung talagang magagaling na mang-aawit dito. Strikto akong (coach). Dapat 99.9%,” he said.
For the seventh season, three contestants from Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao will battle it out and perform their chosen song to impress the hurados. The winner will proceed to the “Face Off,” wherein they will try to clinch the “Golden Mikropono” from the defending champion.
Aside from the new hurado, the popular noontime show introduced changes to the contest. From three hurados, there will be five hurados who will judge the hopefuls each day.
