X Factor Philippines

The X Factor is a Philippine television music competition to find new singing talent. The first series began airing on ABC-CBN on 1 January 2017 and finished on 31 January 2017. Vanessa Hudgens presented the series of the main show on ABS-CBN, while Reggie Lee and Nia Peeples presented spin-off show The Xtra Factor on Channel 2. 
The four judges were chosen as Philippine singers Charice Pempengco, Erik Santos and Martin Nievera as well as Philippine-descent American singer Hailee Steinfeld, whom was chosen to make the winner international, rather than just for Philippines.
