Development

edit

The season was first revealed on August 31, 2024, nearly ten years after Face 3 aired in 2015.

Auditions

edit

Auditions for Kalokalike were announced and commenced on September 4, 2024. Aspiring contestants can audition at the ABS-CBN Audience Entrance from Mondays to Saturdays, between 1:00 PM and 6:00 PM. Applicants are required to present their talent, a photo of the celebrity or public figure they intend to impersonate, a valid ID, and a vaccination card. Additionally, individuals can refer contestants or impersonators online using the hashtag #JoinKalokalike. The dates for online auditions have not yet been announced.[8]

Production

edit

Kalokalike: Face 4 premiered on September 2, 2024. This is the first Kalokalike season to air on Kapamilya Channel, A2Z, All TV,[9] GMA Network, and GTV following the cease-and-desist order against ABS-CBN's free-to-air assets last May 5, 2020.

Format

edit

In "Kalokalike," three contestants compete daily to see who can best impersonate a famous local or international figure. Each contestant must present an introduction, deliver a monologue, and perform a talent act. The competitors are judged by three "hurados" (judges). The impersonator who receives the most "Kalokalikes" from the judges wins the daily round, advances to the next stage of the competition, and earns a cash prize. The top performer at the end of the competition is crowned the "Ultimate Kalokalike."

Additionally, competitors are asked a question and respond on behalf of the audience. The audience members use placards to indicate whether they find the impersonation "Kaloka" (unimpressive) or "Kalokalike" (impressive). One audience member is randomly selected to explain their choice of "Kaloka" or "Kalokalike" and provide feedback on the contestant's performance.

Prizes

edit

Those that win the daily rounds will receive ₱15,000 (₱10,000 for the first week), while those do not will receive ₱5,000.
