The X Factor Indonesia is an Indonesian reality television music competition to find new singing talent, contested by aspiring singers drawn from public audition. The show was adopted from British The X Factor and produced by FremantleMedia (now Fremantle) and Cowell's production company Syco. It is broadcast on RCTI. In 2014, X Factor Indonesia won the Panasonic Gobel Awards for the category Talent and Best Reality Show.
As part of British The X Factor franchise, the show's format has numerous differences from rival shows such as Indonesian Idol. X Factor Indonesia is open to both solo artists and groups and has no upper age limit. For the first three seasons, each judge is assigned one of four categories (five in the third season)—boys between 15 and 25, girls between 15 and 25, individuals 26 and over (split into males and females in the third season), or groups. Starting from the fourth season, each judge is assigned one contestant from three categories—Male, female, and group.
Throughout the live shows, the judges act as mentors to their category, helping to decide song choices, styling, and staging, while judging contestants from the other categories; they also compete to ensure that their act wins the competition, thus making them the winning judge. The original judging panel lineup consisted of Ahmad Dhani, Rossa, Anggun, and Bebi Romeo,[1] with Robby Purba as the sole host. The show has produced four winners to date: Fatin Shidqia (Girls), Jebe & Petty (Groups), Alvin Jonathan (Boys), and Peter Holly (Male).
After a six-year hiatus, on July 10, 2021, Fremantle Indonesia announced that X Factor Indonesia will return with the third season.[2]
