''Are You The Next Big Star?'' is a reality music competition to find two new solo musical talents, created and developed by ''GMA New Media, Inc.''. It debuted on May 16, 2009 on GMA Network, and is hosted by Regine Velasquez, with comedian-singer Keempee de Leon as the co-host. The program seeks to discover the best singer in the country through a series of nationwide auditions. The public decides the outcomes of the later stages through text voting. The judges who give critiques of the contestants' performances have included Pops Fernandez, Randy Santiago, Danny Tan, Mon Faustino and Annie Quintos. The prizes at stake includes one million pesos (P 1,000,000), a condominium unit from Avida, a management contract from GMA Artist Center and a recording contract from GMA Records. There will be two winners in the show: one male and one female. On August 23, 2009, on the show's big finale, Frencheska Farr and Geoff Taylor were announced as the next female big star and next male big star respectively. Following the third and final round of the competition, Zyrene Parsad and Jay Perillo were eliminated. Camille Cortez and Alex Castro joined Frencheska Farr and Geoff Taylor in the final round of competition. Frencheska Farr sang the victory song entitled ''Show Must Go On'' while Geoff Taylor sang the victory song entitled ''Heto Na''. Both songs were composed by the show's musical director Raul Mitra and his wife Cacai Velasquez. ==Production== In 2008, GMA Network had broadcast the country's second version of the Idol franchise, ''Pinoy Idol'', following ABC's Philippine Idol.

However, ''Darling de Jesus'', vice president for Music and Variety programs at GMA, later stated that they "wanted (next season of Pinoy Idol ) to be more Pinoy", but could not come to terms with Fremantle over their changes. It was decided that GMA would instead produce their own music competition, tailored to the Filipino audience.
