About Nigeria’s Got Talent
Nigeria’s Got Talent is a Nigerian reality talent show. Sponsored by telecommunication company Airtel, it was first aired in 2012 on AIT AND NTA television stations. Nigeria’s Got Talent is part of the Got Talent franchise.
How Nigeria’s Got Talent Works
To become a contestant on the show, you first need to get past the auditions which take place in front of the judges (Kate Henshaw, Yibo Koko and Dan Foster) and a live audience. The auditions are held in different cities in Nigeria.
As the contestant performs, each judge may show their disapproval by pressing a buzzer which lights a red ‘X’ near above the stage. If all three buzzers are pressed, the act ends immediately. To advance to the second round, auditionees must receive approval from at least two of the judges, otherwise the competition ends for them.
After the auditions, the judges have to cut down successful acts down to fifty, by eliminating the contestants with the poorest performances. The remaining contestants progress to the next round. Throughout the whole competition, the judges give their impression of each act’s performance.
The remaining acts from across the country perform at the live semi-finals, with the two most popular acts from each semi-finals winning a position in the final. The judges may still end a performance early with all three ‘X’s’ buzzed. After the acts have performed, phone lines open and the voting process begins, after which the votes are counted and the act with the highest number of public votes is automatically placed in the final. The judges then choose between the second and third most popular acts, with the winner of the most votes automatically gaining a place in the final where the winner of Nigeria’s Got Talent is chosen once again by the public vote.
