Season 3

The season ended on April 12, 2026, after 55 episodes and 12 rounds, the longest run in the show's history. JMielle, a singing duo consisting of JM Dela Cerna and Marielle Montellano, was named the winner at the season finale after obtaining a final score of 94.00%.

Format

The show follows a competition where celebrity performers are tasked to impersonate any icon, living or dead, regardless of their age, race or gender. A three-person jury ranks the contestants, with their cumulative points being combined with points given by the performers amongst themselves to determine a winner for that round. For this season, the duration of each round runs for two weekends, deviating from the one-weekend duration of each round in the previous seasons.

Twists

The season introduced a variety of twists for the format, including the following:

  • Steal – Based on "Te lo robo" from the original Spanish version of the format, the Steal allows a performer to take another performer’s assigned icon for the following week by pressing the red button during the Iconizer segment.
  • Battle of One Icon — Two or more celebrity performers are assigned to impersonate the same icon while performing different songs.

Contestants

The eight contestants were first teased on September 24, 2025, and were revealed two days later on September 26.[1][2]

Pepe Herrera withdrew from the competition on Episode 13 (November 15) for health-related reasons.

Round 13: "The Grand Showdown" (April 5, 11 & 12)

All seven remaining contestants perform in the grand showdown, which is pre-recorded for the first time in the show's history. For the round, the contestants select the icons they impersonate. The winner is determined by a composite score of the final total points accumulated throughout the competition and the jury's evaluation of their final performances. During this round, Sharon Cuneta was absent, and four guest jurors took her place. Without a public vote component, this finale is the first to have its outcome determined solely by the jury.[9]

At the end of the round, JMielle narrowly defeated Alexa, the leader in the final tally of points, in the final score by a margin of 0.5%. They received a trophy and ₱1,000,000 in cash.

Development

On August 14, 2025, ABS-CBN confirmed that Your Face Sounds Familiar will return for a fourth season at the "Iisang Tahanan: Kapamilya Forever Trade Launch".[10][11][12]

Hosts and judges

Ogie Alcasid
Sharon Cuneta

All of the judges from the previous season, Ogie Alcasid, Sharon Cuneta and Gary Valenciano returned to serve in the jury.

The season is hosted by Vhong Navarro and season 3 contestant Jhong Hilario, both of whom replace Luis Manzano, who left the show due to hosting commitments on other programs.[13][14] To promote the season, Navarro and Hilario appeared as guest performers in the final episode of Idol Kids Philippines on September 28.[15]

In the show's online companion show, KaFamiliar Online Live, season 3 contestant Vivoree Esclito, Kids season 2 contestant Krystal Brimner, and Showtime Online Ü host AC Soriano serve as hosts. Fellow Kids season 2 contestant and co-winner Mackie Empuerto of the TNT Boys and iWant ASAP host Jeremy G served as substitute online hosts for this season.

Mentors

Klarisse de Guzman, winner of season 3, and Nyoy Volante, runner-up of season 1, serve as mentors for the season for vocals and character and movement, respectively. The former replaced Jed Madela, joining the show for her first season as a mentor.[16]

Guest judges

In certain weeks, guest judges substituted for members of the jury in their respective absences.

  • Nyoy Volante (Valenciano's substitute judge for Round 2 and Rounds 3–5 and 8 alongside de Guzman)
  • Klarisse de Guzman (Cuneta's substitute judge for Rounds 2 and 9, Valenciano's substitute judge for Rounds 3–5 and 8 alongside Volante)
  • Erik Santos (Alcasid's substitute judge for Round 7, Valenciano's substitute judge for Round 12)
  • Karla Estrada (Alcasid's substitute judge for Round 9)

Broadcast

On January 2, 2026, the show and other remaining ABS-CBN programs airing on TV5 were transferred to AMBS' ALLTV, marking its return to channels 2 and 16 in Mega Manila and regional channels previously held by ABS-CBN until 2020. This occurred after TV5 Network's decision to terminate its content partnership deal with ABS-CBN, which effectively ceased broadcasting programs produced by the latter on TV5, due to financial disputes involving blocktime fees, which was subsequently settled.[17][18][19][20][21]
