What happens

Superstar (also stylized SuperStar) is a Brazilian live reality television singing competition airing on TV Globo. Based on the Israeli singing competition Rising Star, the series was created by Keshet Media Group and developed by Screenz Cross Media LTD. The show's format lets viewers vote for contestants via mobile apps. The winner is entitled to a R$ 500,000 prize, a new Ford Ka and a recording contract with Som Livre. The Brazilian version only allows bands or groups to compete, not solo artists and duos, to avoid clashing with The Voice Brasil (also produced and broadcast by TV Globo during the Southern Hemisphere spring). The series premiered on April 6, 2014. In June 2014, TV Globo renewed the show for a second season. In November 2016, TV Globo canceled the series after three seasons due to declining viewership.
