 between 12-14 finalists move to a mansion in Miami and live together where they receive different classes of dancing, runway, diction, teleprompter and physical training. The finalists then compete against each other every week in different challenges. After each episode of the show is over, the audience at home gets to vote for their favorite contestant by phone or text message. The audience is meant to vote based on the delegate, and not their nationality, therefore it is allowed to have more than one contestant from the same country or have the same nationality. Week by week the 3 finalists with the least votes are in danger, meaning that one is saved by the other contestants, another by the judges and the one left is eliminated, although in some rare cases, a contestant might be disqualified (2009 & 2011) and replaced by a semifinalist. Or a double elimination occurs (2011). The show runs between 11-13 episodes, having the auditions be in the first three episodes, or in some cases all castings in one.
