that's hard to do,

emojis at the same time.

Just the overall impression
I got of you
155
00:07:45,509 --> 00:07:47,775

was that of someone
156
00:07:47,844 --> 00:07:49,143
who was born to be here.
157
00:07:50,981 --> 00:07:53,982
If it wasn't
for this alter ego,
158
00:07:54,084 --> 00:07:57,085
I literally would probably
really be nervous,
159
00:07:57,087 --> 00:08:01,222
so scared my knees literally
buckle, like, shaking.
160
00:08:01,224 --> 00:08:06,027

it kinda helped me
to gain the confidence

169
00:08:26,616 --> 00:08:28,983

177
00:08:44,868 --> 00:08:47,735
- Like, you gave
a rock star performance...
- Thank you.
178
00:08:47,837 --> 00:08:49,837
...Looking like a rock star.
179
00:08:49,839 --> 00:08:52,840
It's crazy to see
all that musical talent
180
00:08:52,876 --> 00:08:55,643
combined with
this mind-blowing technology
181
00:08:55,645 --> 00:08:57,312
that we're all witnessing
for the very first time.
182
00:08:57,314 --> 00:08:59,047
So to see that on stage
183
00:08:59,082 --> 00:09:02,216
happening in real time
altogether was wild.
184
00:09:02,252 --> 00:09:04,852
So here's the thing.
185
00:09:04,888 --> 00:09:07,855
Since you are our first audition
tonight, queen dynamite,
186
00:09:07,891 --> 00:09:10,725
you will take the spot
on the diamond.
187
00:09:10,794 --> 00:09:12,260
- Yeah!
- Okay.
188
00:09:12,295 --> 00:09:15,063
Thank you.
189
00:09:16,700 --> 00:09:19,367
If you can stay there
until the end of the show,
190
00:09:19,436 --> 00:09:23,071
you'll automatically advance
to the next round.
191
00:09:23,073 --> 00:09:26,941
But any of the next
four alter egos
can take your place,
192
00:09:26,943 --> 00:09:30,144
so we'll see if you can keep
that spot the entire show, okay?
193
00:09:30,180 --> 00:09:31,713
Okay. Thank you.
194
00:09:31,715 --> 00:09:33,748
There's so much more show left.
195
00:09:33,783 --> 00:09:35,717
You just stay right there,
'cause we'll be right back.
196
00:09:39,789 --> 00:09:42,056
Yo, this is crazy.
This is dope-dope.
197
00:09:42,092 --> 00:09:43,391
Yeah.

usually don't think it's me.

Will.I.Am:
What the what?
201

This is earth-shattering stuff
we're seeing here.
202
00:09:56,306 --> 00:09:59,741
This means everything.
203
00:09:59,776 --> 00:10:02,910
Rocsi: One of these alter egos
will have to go home tonight
204
00:10:02,946 --> 00:10:06,347
and reveal their true identity
to our judges.
205
00:10:06,349 --> 00:10:07,615
What?
206
00:10:11,187 --> 00:10:13,021
Here we go.
Places, everybody.

Coming to the top of the act

Welcome back to "alter ego."
209

you've only seen
one audition so far.
210
00:10:22,399 --> 00:10:24,632
As the judges are well aware,
211
00:10:24,634 --> 00:10:27,035
they do not get to know anything
212
00:10:27,037 --> 00:10:29,070
about the real identities
of these singers,
213
00:10:29,072 --> 00:10:30,872
but you at home do.
214
00:10:30,907 --> 00:10:32,006
So with that being said,
215
00:10:32,075 --> 00:10:34,909

anything like this,

because right now my health
is questionable.

00:10:48,925 --> 00:10:52,593

some issues in my gut.

00:10:52,629 --> 00:10:56,130
I was just throwing up blood
and couldn't keep any food down.

But, dipper scott,
there was something
that happened
321
00:15:48,391 --> 00:15:52,226
in your performance
that grabbed my heart strings
322
00:15:52,261 --> 00:15:54,061
and yanked them out of my chest.
323
00:15:54,130 --> 00:15:57,264
- Thank you.
- So I'm gonna start to
call you the big dipper,
324
00:15:57,266 --> 00:16:00,401
because you need to be
closer to the stars
on that diamond up there.
325

Grimes, that's two votes
for dipper scott.
327
00:16:07,443 --> 00:16:09,543
I feel like you guys

328
00:16:09,579 --> 00:16:12,613

I sort of value the most.
329
00:16:12,682 --> 00:16:14,715
I don't know, queen dynamite,
creatively, I dug it.
330
00:16:14,784 --> 00:16:17,518
Dipper, that was really,
really great.
331
00:16:17,553 --> 00:16:19,353
I super love
your moving tattoos.
332
00:16:19,389 --> 00:16:21,622
I feel like that's
kind of what I'm here for,
333
00:16:21,657 --> 00:16:25,259
is, like, what can you be
that your human self can't be?
334
00:16:25,294 --> 00:16:26,494
I don't know. I'm sucked in.

I'm, like,
buying into this entity,
336
00:16:29,098 --> 00:16:30,664

on the diamond.

If you stay on the diamond,
344
00:16:48,785 --> 00:16:50,518
you'll be through
to the next round,
345
00:16:50,553 --> 00:16:52,353
and the judges
and the audience decide
346

will go home.
347

If those first two performances
are any indication,
348
00:16:57,427 --> 00:16:59,193
it's gonna be
one hell of a season.
349

alter egos tonight.

00:17:03,099 --> 00:17:04,565
Stick around,
and we'll be right back.
351
00:17:04,634 --> 00:17:07,701
- I mean, he was kinda cute.
- He was.
352
00:17:07,703 --> 00:17:08,702
It feels like you guys hang,
353
00:17:08,704 --> 00:17:10,771
and you're like,
"all right, I'm gonna peace out
354
00:17:10,873 --> 00:17:12,706
and I'm gonna go
to the real world
355
00:17:12,708 --> 00:17:15,509
and you're about to hop
back into virtual land."
356
00:17:15,511 --> 00:17:16,744
you're a part of the same world.
357
00:17:16,746 --> 00:17:18,212
All right,
load the next alter ego
358
00:17:18,281 --> 00:17:19,380
- into the system.
- Copy that.
359
00:17:28,191 --> 00:17:29,490
Rocsi: Welcome back.
360
00:17:29,492 --> 00:17:33,194
It's time to meet our next
alter ego, bernie burns.
361
00:17:36,666 --> 00:17:40,701
- What is happening?
- Oh! I like the suspenders.
362
00:17:43,706 --> 00:17:46,340
- Hi, bernie burns.
- Hello.
363
00:17:46,342 --> 00:17:47,608
How are you feeling right now?
364
00:17:47,710 --> 00:17:49,310
I'm feeling great right now.
365
00:17:49,345 --> 00:17:51,679
What brings you here?
366
00:17:51,681 --> 00:17:54,515
Why was "alter ego"
alluring to you?
367
00:17:54,517 --> 00:17:56,150
In real life,
I'm a very shy person.
368
00:17:56,185 --> 00:17:58,152
I feel like this
will give me an opportunity
369
00:17:58,154 --> 00:18:00,621
to show the world
how I would like to be seen.
370
00:18:00,623 --> 00:18:02,323
Yeah, man.
371
00:18:06,596 --> 00:18:08,796
Because I'm young
and have a baby face,
372
00:18:08,831 --> 00:18:10,264
people don't usually
give me a chance.
373
00:18:10,299 --> 00:18:15,136
I need this alter ego
because I need people
to take me seriously.
374
00:18:15,171 --> 00:18:16,937
I'm erny, I'm an old soul,
375
00:18:16,939 --> 00:18:19,673
I'm 17 years old,
and I'm from new york city.
376
00:18:19,709 --> 00:18:21,142
♪ work it out
377
00:18:21,144 --> 00:18:23,377
I started getting into singing
in ninth grade.
378
00:18:23,412 --> 00:18:25,679
My father used to play
all these records
379
00:18:25,748 --> 00:18:29,150
of dean martin, frank sinatra,
380
00:18:29,185 --> 00:18:30,784
and anyone in the '60s.
381
00:18:30,820 --> 00:18:32,586
I'm very shy kid,
382
00:18:32,588 --> 00:18:34,388
and so I feel that having
this alter ego
383
00:18:34,423 --> 00:18:37,258
would make me very confident
in my abilities.
384
00:18:37,293 --> 00:18:38,492
This is an opportunity to,
you know,
385
00:18:38,594 --> 00:18:40,895
show off how
I really want to be seen.
386
00:18:42,265 --> 00:18:45,332
My alter ego's name
is bernie burns.
387
00:18:45,434 --> 00:18:48,469
Honestly, the process of making
the alter ego was so fun.
388
00:18:48,504 --> 00:18:51,639
I got to pick different
type of clothing,
different shoes.
389
00:18:51,674 --> 00:18:54,708
That looks awesome.
I want to see more.

to portray myself
in this type of way.
393
00:19:02,285 --> 00:19:04,552
He's got a unique accent, huh?
394
00:19:04,587 --> 00:19:06,420
Yeah, there's
something going on.
395

Real quick, I want to

425
00:21:03,306 --> 00:21:06,073
and the alter ego band
for that arrangement.
426
00:21:06,075 --> 00:21:08,342
Nick, what did you think?
427
00:21:08,377 --> 00:21:11,278
I kinda feel like bernie
could've been the fifth member
of 98 degrees
428
00:21:11,314 --> 00:21:13,047
with the flames and the...
429
00:21:14,950 --> 00:21:17,551
I think the type of music
that you're doing
430
00:21:17,586 --> 00:21:21,388
lends itself to being
a little bit, like, laid back,
431
00:21:21,424 --> 00:21:23,724
and I felt like you could've
done that a little more.
432
00:21:23,726 --> 00:21:26,460
But all in all, man,
bernie burns,
433
00:21:26,562 --> 00:21:28,762
that performance was en fuego.
434
00:21:28,798 --> 00:21:32,966
Ha-ha! You did it.
You did it.
435
00:21:33,002 --> 00:21:33,867
Okay?
436
00:21:36,672 --> 00:21:40,741
Judges, was that audition
diamond-worthy?
437
00:21:40,810 --> 00:21:42,676
It's time to vote.
438
00:21:45,481 --> 00:21:49,383
Will, was it enough to knock
dipper scott off the diamond
439
00:21:49,452 --> 00:21:51,919
and put him at risk
of going home?
440
00:21:51,921 --> 00:21:54,788
Bernie burns was awesome
and entertaining.
441
00:21:54,890 --> 00:21:57,491
I loved the retro
fused with the futurism.
442
00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:01,862
But I've been moved
by dipper's performance,
443
00:22:01,864 --> 00:22:04,465
so the dipper's gonna stay
on the diamond.
444
00:22:05,868 --> 00:22:07,668
Nick?
445
00:22:07,803 --> 00:22:11,338
Bernie burns, what you did,
it's hard to do,
446
00:22:11,374 --> 00:22:14,641
to be that smooth,
and it's in your whole persona,
and you did great job.
447
00:22:14,643 --> 00:22:17,878
But to me,
dipper ain't dipping.
448
00:22:20,583 --> 00:22:23,751
That's two votes for dipper.
449
00:22:23,753 --> 00:22:24,952
Alanis?
450
00:22:24,987 --> 00:22:27,121
I just really appreciated
your performance,
451
00:22:27,156 --> 00:22:31,125
and I love this style of music
that you performed for us.
452
00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,595
Dipper scott,
your voice, your flip,
453
00:22:34,597 --> 00:22:35,996
and your performance
in general
454
00:22:36,031 --> 00:22:37,698
was just really
compelling to me,
455
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,800
so I'm gonna keep dipper
up on that diamond.
456
00:22:42,938 --> 00:22:45,105
That is three votes.
457
00:22:45,107 --> 00:22:47,474
Dipper stays up there.
458
00:22:47,476 --> 00:22:51,879
Bernie burns, I'm so sorry
that your audition wasn't enough
to get you on the diamond,
459
00:22:51,914 --> 00:22:55,582
so now you are in jeopardy
of going home.
460
00:22:55,584 --> 00:22:59,887
The judges and audience
will be sending one alter ego
home at the end of the night.
461
00:23:02,024 --> 00:23:04,057
Only two more
performances tonight.
462
00:23:04,093 --> 00:23:06,427
More "alter ego" coming up next.
463
00:23:07,830 --> 00:23:10,030
Are you ready to show us
what you got tonight?
464
00:23:10,032 --> 00:23:11,732
- Born ready.
- I love it!
465
00:23:20,109 --> 00:23:23,844
This is "alter ego" on fox.
I'm rocsi diaz.
466
00:23:23,846 --> 00:23:26,447
It's time for you at home
to learn all about
467
00:23:26,515 --> 00:23:30,584
our next alter ego,
misty rose.
468
00:23:30,686 --> 00:23:35,189
I want an alter ego because
it allows me to combine
469
00:23:35,191 --> 00:23:37,991
my love for singing
and my love for technology.
470
00:23:37,993 --> 00:23:41,428
I'm a technology girl
through and through,
471
00:23:41,497 --> 00:23:47,201
and I would love to be
the next generation's
digital superstar.
472
00:23:47,203 --> 00:23:49,436
My name is samaera,
I'm 21 years old,
473
00:23:49,472 --> 00:23:51,104
and I'm a singer.
474
00:23:53,542 --> 00:23:56,877
I don't even remember
the first time that I sang
475
00:23:56,879 --> 00:23:58,745
because I practically
came out the womb singing.
476
00:23:58,848 --> 00:24:03,750
It's just where can
I put all of my stress,
my happiness, anything,
477
00:24:03,786 --> 00:24:06,787
I can just put that
into either my singing
or my songwriting.
478
00:24:08,190 --> 00:24:11,458
- ( crew chatter )
- oh, my god.
479
00:24:11,494 --> 00:24:15,896
So this is her? She's sassy.
480
00:24:15,898 --> 00:24:19,066
I wanted misty rose to be
an extension of myself.
481
00:24:19,101 --> 00:24:23,103
Can we try her with blue hair?
482
00:24:23,138 --> 00:24:25,138
My favorite part of this process
483
00:24:25,174 --> 00:24:27,140
was putting on
the motion capture suit.
484
00:24:27,176 --> 00:24:28,709
Like, I'm mad?
Like, I'm mad.
485
00:24:28,744 --> 00:24:30,577
I'm sad? I'm sad. I'm happy?
486
00:24:30,646 --> 00:24:33,580
It translates from me onto her.
487
00:24:33,649 --> 00:24:35,582
This is the future.
488
00:24:35,618 --> 00:24:38,085
I'm totally here for it.
I'm super excited.
489
00:24:47,530 --> 00:24:48,629
Whoo!
490
00:24:51,233 --> 00:24:52,766
Yeah!
491
00:24:55,070 --> 00:24:57,838
- What's up, misty rose?
- Hi, guys.
492
00:24:57,873 --> 00:25:00,140
First question I have
is why are you here?
493
00:25:00,209 --> 00:25:03,310
I'm not ready to be
a human pop star.
494
00:25:03,312 --> 00:25:04,912
I'm a digital pop star.
495
00:25:04,947 --> 00:25:07,714
Love it. Let's go.

00:25:08,817 --> 00:25:10,617

where did that conjure from?
498
00:25:11,820 --> 00:25:15,022
The misty part,
that is the name of my cat.
499
00:25:15,024 --> 00:25:18,825
- The rose, that's
'cause I have layers.
- And petals.
500
00:25:18,861 --> 00:25:21,228
Misty are you ready to show us

I loved it.
Alanis, what did you think?
530
00:26:58,027 --> 00:27:00,193
I mean, the vocal performance
was very olympian,
531
00:27:00,229 --> 00:27:04,297
and that chord change
that you just slipped into
so effortlessly?
532

Good on you, misty rose!
539
00:27:26,188 --> 00:27:29,189
To be asked to do that
on national television
540
00:27:29,224 --> 00:27:31,091
- and just belt that out--
- can you do that, nick?
541
00:27:31,093 --> 00:27:32,125
No!
542
00:27:34,263 --> 00:27:36,196
You're probably
the most distinctly modern
543
00:27:36,231 --> 00:27:38,331
kinda contemporary performance
I think we've seen,
544
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:41,768
and also the avatar
presentation itself.
545
00:27:41,837 --> 00:27:46,373
- And I love your bangs.
- Girl, you know you're
trying to steal my look.
546
00:27:49,311 --> 00:27:51,311
That was amazing work,
547
00:27:51,313 --> 00:27:56,116
but was it enough
to knock dipper scott
off of the diamond
548
00:27:56,118 --> 00:27:58,318
and put him in jeopardy
of going home?
549
00:27:58,353 --> 00:28:01,421
Judges, it's time
for your decision.
550
00:28:01,423 --> 00:28:05,726
Misty, I can see you
as a digital superstar,
551
00:28:05,794 --> 00:28:08,028
I can see the fans,
I can see the following,
552
00:28:08,030 --> 00:28:10,030
I can see the whole picture.
553
00:28:10,032 --> 00:28:13,734
There was something
about what dipper did
554
00:28:13,769 --> 00:28:17,871
that still-- it pulled
on something in my soul,
555
00:28:17,873 --> 00:28:21,541
so I vote to keep dipper
on the diamond.
556
00:28:25,414 --> 00:28:29,182
- Grimes?
- Yeah, I think misty has so
much commercial potential,
557
00:28:29,184 --> 00:28:32,185
like, someone we would
be down to do something with
or work with.
558
00:28:32,187 --> 00:28:35,021
But, again,
dipper just gave, like,
559
00:28:35,057 --> 00:28:37,491
a really earth-shattering
performance.
560
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:39,893
So I'm gonna keep dipper
on the diamond.
561
00:28:42,331 --> 00:28:47,501
Two votes for dipper scott
to stay on that diamond. Will?
562
00:28:47,536 --> 00:28:48,735
I'm torn.
563
00:28:48,771 --> 00:28:51,104
Dipper brought a layer
564
00:28:51,106 --> 00:28:53,907
that is invisible
but super powerful,
565
00:28:53,909 --> 00:28:56,710
and how he's done that
is mysterious.
566
00:28:56,745 --> 00:28:59,880
But I also believe
in misty rose,
567
00:28:59,915 --> 00:29:01,214
and there's this thing
about her key change
568
00:29:01,250 --> 00:29:02,248
that was awesome as well.
569
00:29:02,251 --> 00:29:04,217
And so, boom,
570
00:29:04,219 --> 00:29:06,820
I'm with misty on the diamond.
571
00:29:07,990 --> 00:29:10,323
Dipper scott currently
has two votes.
572
00:29:10,458 --> 00:29:13,827
Misty rose, one vote. Alanis?
573
00:29:13,862 --> 00:29:16,096
Misty, I just love your vocal
and the prowess.
574
00:29:16,098 --> 00:29:18,932
There was so much
animating energy
575
00:29:18,967 --> 00:29:20,500
coming through you
and your voice.
576
00:29:20,502 --> 00:29:22,969
I would've liked to have seen
a little bit more
577
00:29:23,005 --> 00:29:25,338
owning that stage and moving
around a tiny bit more.
578
00:29:25,340 --> 00:29:28,241
So for me, I didn't feel
579
00:29:28,310 --> 00:29:31,278
this emotional connection
to the performance.
580
00:29:31,313 --> 00:29:34,347
Dipper, I love your voice,
so, basically,
581
00:29:34,383 --> 00:29:36,383
I'm gonna put dipper scott
up on the diamond.
582
00:29:36,385 --> 00:29:40,387
Yep! Dipper scott stays
on that diamond!
583
00:29:41,990 --> 00:29:47,194
Which means misty rose
could go home tonight.
584
00:29:49,464 --> 00:29:51,832
There's only one more audition
left tonight.
585
00:29:51,867 --> 00:29:55,936
Will they be able to knock
dipper scott off the diamond?
586
00:29:55,971 --> 00:29:58,438
There's kinda no one
been bad this whole time.
587
00:29:58,473 --> 00:30:00,140
Pretty incredible
across the board.
588
00:30:00,175 --> 00:30:02,375
We'll have to be
a little more ruthless.
589
00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,553
Welcome back to "alter ego."
590
00:30:13,589 --> 00:30:16,122
are you guys ready
for the last performance?
591
00:30:17,226 --> 00:30:18,925
Ooh, ooh!
592
00:30:18,927 --> 00:30:21,995
All right, I wanna
introduce you guys to seven.
593
00:30:26,368 --> 00:30:31,004
Yeah! Seven!
594
00:30:33,275 --> 00:30:36,076
Yo, your hair is, like,
just wavy with it right now.
595
00:30:36,078 --> 00:30:39,079
Yeah, I got the tentacles
on my head top, you know?
596
00:30:39,081 --> 00:30:43,250
That's dope.
I ain't never seen
no worm hair like that.
597
00:30:43,285 --> 00:30:47,487
Do you feel by having
an alter ego it empowers you?
598
00:30:47,522 --> 00:30:49,956
It allows you to step out here
599
00:30:49,958 --> 00:30:52,359
in a way that you
haven't experienced before?
600
00:30:52,394 --> 00:30:54,361
Absolutely,
and I wanna be able
601
00:30:54,396 --> 00:30:58,064
to stand here and show people
you can be who you are
602
00:30:58,133 --> 00:30:59,966
and being who you are
is just enough.
603
00:31:00,002 --> 00:31:03,503
You don't need to be
anyone else. Yeah.
604
00:31:05,073 --> 00:31:06,239
Growing up,
605
00:31:06,275 --> 00:31:10,110
confidence was not something
I had much of.
606
00:31:10,145 --> 00:31:12,479
It was a little bit, you know,
607
00:31:12,481 --> 00:31:14,314
because I sounded different.
608
00:31:14,316 --> 00:31:18,351
I had a deep voice.
People didn't understand it.
609
00:31:18,353 --> 00:31:22,155
They would misgender
and say that I was a boy.
610
00:31:22,190 --> 00:31:26,025
And it was something
that was so defining for me
611
00:31:26,027 --> 00:31:30,363
as a little girl,
so I need to be here
612
00:31:30,399 --> 00:31:33,366
because I want to see
who I really am
613
00:31:33,402 --> 00:31:35,669
in a space
where I'm not limited
614
00:31:35,671 --> 00:31:38,305
by my every day.
615
00:31:38,340 --> 00:31:40,674
My name kyara tetreault,
616
00:31:40,676 --> 00:31:45,478
I am 28 years old,
and I live in toronto, canada.
617
00:31:47,249 --> 00:31:52,319
In school, I was bullied a lot
for having a deep voice.
618
00:31:52,354 --> 00:31:54,187
People would tease me and say,
619
00:31:54,256 --> 00:31:57,490
"why don't you sound
like the other girls?"
620
00:31:57,492 --> 00:31:59,626
and it really stung
621
00:31:59,628 --> 00:32:01,695
because I didn't know
where I fit in,
622
00:32:01,763 --> 00:32:03,063
because I didn't.
623
00:32:04,633 --> 00:32:06,700
Oh, I look cute!
624
00:32:06,735 --> 00:32:09,069
My alter ego is seven.
625
00:32:09,071 --> 00:32:10,103
I love it.
626
00:32:10,105 --> 00:32:12,505
Seven is confident
627
00:32:12,541 --> 00:32:15,342
and not afraid
to take chances.
628
00:32:15,344 --> 00:32:18,712
I like that seven
doesn't meet expectations.
629
00:32:18,714 --> 00:32:22,582
That is the ultimate
alter ego for me.
630
00:32:22,617 --> 00:32:25,585
Can we take off the skirt?
631
00:32:25,620 --> 00:32:27,487

We're celebrating the marriage

but what you just said, seven,
transcends all of that.
689
00:35:38,446 --> 00:35:42,148
We all deserve
to be who we are,
690
00:35:42,150 --> 00:35:45,151
how we are,
the way we want to be.

00:35:45,153 --> 00:35:49,756
Man, I'm just so blessed to be
a part of this moment, honestly.
692
00:35:52,594 --> 00:35:54,928
So the burning question is
693
00:35:54,930 --> 00:35:57,830
was seven's audition enough
694
00:35:57,832 --> 00:35:59,599
to take that spot
on the diamond
695
00:35:59,601 --> 00:36:03,503
guaranteeing them a spot
to the next round?
696
00:36:03,538 --> 00:36:06,706
Or will dipper scott
go on to the next round?
697
00:36:06,741 --> 00:36:08,942
- Judges, it's time to decide.
- Yikes.
698
00:36:09,010 --> 00:36:11,477
( cheering )
699
00:36:13,682 --> 00:36:16,216
I think maybe dipper's
performance was a bit stronger,
700
00:36:16,318 --> 00:36:20,353
but seven, to me, captured
something truly unique.
701
00:36:20,388 --> 00:36:23,556
So I'm gonna put seven
on the diamond,
702
00:36:23,592 --> 00:36:27,427
but I'll make fan pages
for both of you.
703
00:36:30,432 --> 00:36:34,000
- Thank you.
- Alanis?
704
00:36:34,035 --> 00:36:36,970
Dipper, your performance
and the voice were
off the charts for me,
705
00:36:36,972 --> 00:36:38,271
so I'm gonna
keep dipper up there.
706
00:36:41,910 --> 00:36:45,511
Seven, your low register
you probably felt was odd.
707
00:36:45,547 --> 00:36:48,181
That oddity is freaking awesome.
708
00:36:50,218 --> 00:36:51,551
Thank you.
709
00:36:53,321 --> 00:36:57,390
And my decision does not reflect
my belief your talent,
710
00:36:57,392 --> 00:36:59,792
but I'm gonna keep dipper
on the diamond.
711
00:37:03,298 --> 00:37:04,831
This is a big decision
right now, nick.
712
00:37:04,899 --> 00:37:07,834
One more vote for dipper
713
00:37:07,902 --> 00:37:09,068
and that keeps him
on the diamond.
714
00:37:09,104 --> 00:37:10,803
Another vote for seven,
715
00:37:10,905 --> 00:37:12,972
and we go into a tiebreaker
with the audience.
716
00:37:15,410 --> 00:37:16,409
Whew!
717
00:37:17,879 --> 00:37:20,947
I've been moved and inspired
718
00:37:20,949 --> 00:37:22,715
by your performances tonight.
719
00:37:22,717 --> 00:37:24,550
To me, that's what
this is all about.
720
00:37:24,552 --> 00:37:27,754
It's an opportunity
to be who we are as artists
721
00:37:27,789 --> 00:37:30,390
and share that artistry
with the world,
722
00:37:30,425 --> 00:37:32,692
and you guys have both
done that tonight.
723
00:37:32,694 --> 00:37:36,729
There's still something
that dipper did
724
00:37:36,798 --> 00:37:39,932
that touched something in me
that I can't let go of,
725
00:37:40,001 --> 00:37:45,305
and so I will also vote
to keep dipper on that diamond.
726
00:37:47,575 --> 00:37:49,876
Rocsi:
Unfortunately, seven,
727
00:37:49,878 --> 00:37:53,713
your audition wasn't enough
to get that spot on the diamond,
728
00:37:53,748 --> 00:37:57,283
which means you are
in jeopardy of elimination.
729
00:37:58,887 --> 00:38:00,553
The judges kept dipper scott
on the diamond,
730
00:38:00,555 --> 00:38:02,922
which means he will
automatically move on
731
00:38:02,991 --> 00:38:05,458
to the head-to-head round.
732
00:38:05,460 --> 00:38:08,461
Congratulations, dipper scott.
733
00:38:11,099 --> 00:38:14,467
And now,
our in-studio audience
734
00:38:14,502 --> 00:38:17,470
will vote
their favorite alter ego.
735
00:38:17,505 --> 00:38:20,540
Their top two picks will
move on to the head-to-heads,
736
00:38:20,608 --> 00:38:22,875
and it'll be up
to the judges to decide
737
00:38:22,944 --> 00:38:26,412
which one of the remaining two
singers stays in the competition
738
00:38:26,481 --> 00:38:29,982
and advances to the next round
and which one goes home.
739
00:38:29,984 --> 00:38:31,718
Find out who comes out on top
740
00:38:31,786 --> 00:38:34,987
and who will reveal their
true identity to the judges
741
00:38:34,989 --> 00:38:36,823
and head home, after this.
742
00:38:38,793 --> 00:38:42,095
He brought seven and the depth
to a totally different level.
743
00:38:42,163 --> 00:38:43,830
She's a woman.
744
00:38:43,865 --> 00:38:45,832
- No.
- But I love that
we can't tell.
745
00:38:50,505 --> 00:38:54,340
- Okay, so come on back.
- Here we go. 3, 2...
746
00:38:59,047 --> 00:39:01,581
- Yeah!
- This is "alter ego,"
747
00:39:01,583 --> 00:39:04,016
and I am your host rocsi diaz.
748
00:39:04,018 --> 00:39:07,954
This has been
such a huge night.
749
00:39:08,022 --> 00:39:10,056
Dipper scott has gone through
to the next round,
750
00:39:10,091 --> 00:39:12,492
and four contestants remain.
751
00:39:12,527 --> 00:39:15,695
Our in-studio audience votes
have been counted,
752
00:39:15,730 --> 00:39:19,565
and now I can reveal
that the two alter egos
753
00:39:19,634 --> 00:39:21,901
advancing to
the next round are...
754
00:39:24,873 --> 00:39:26,539
Queen dynamite.
755
00:39:26,574 --> 00:39:29,041
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
756
00:39:29,110 --> 00:39:31,544
- Yeah!
- Rocsi: And...
757
00:39:32,981 --> 00:39:34,080
Seven!
758
00:39:39,187 --> 00:39:41,654
Congratulations to you both.
759
00:39:41,723 --> 00:39:44,824
We'll see you
at the head-to-heads.
760
00:39:44,826 --> 00:39:47,827
Unfortunately,
that means bernie burns
761
00:39:47,829 --> 00:39:51,097
and misty rose
are in the bottom two.
762
00:39:51,199 --> 00:39:52,932
It's in your hands, judges.
763
00:39:53,034 --> 00:39:56,436
- Who stays and who goes home?
- Oh, boy.
764
00:39:56,471 --> 00:39:59,105
- Is she is the best one?
- Will.I.Am: That was awesome.
765
00:39:59,107 --> 00:40:01,507
- Everybody's tone
is just, like--
- so great.
766
00:40:01,509 --> 00:40:03,709
Nick: It's so much easier when
someone has a bad performance
767
00:40:03,711 --> 00:40:04,911
- and it just sticks out.
- Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
768
00:40:06,514 --> 00:40:08,514
Grimes: This is why
I loved bernie burns.
769
00:40:08,550 --> 00:40:09,916
'cause you get these
character singers--
770
00:40:09,984 --> 00:40:13,553
yeah, it's not always about
hitting the note for me.
771
00:40:13,588 --> 00:40:15,555
I mean, it's nice when we do.
772
00:40:15,557 --> 00:40:17,657
- I'm really torn.
- Will.I.Am: That's deep.
773
00:40:18,927 --> 00:40:19,959
Oy.
774
00:40:19,994 --> 00:40:21,727
Rocsi: Judges,
you have to decide
775
00:40:21,763 --> 00:40:25,064
which one of these alter egos
gets to stay in the competition
776
00:40:25,099 --> 00:40:27,066
and which one
will have to go home tonight
777
00:40:27,101 --> 00:40:31,671
and reveal their true identity
to you in the studio audience.
778
00:40:31,706 --> 00:40:33,072
What is your decision?
779
00:40:33,074 --> 00:40:34,874
Will.I.Am:
At the end of the day,
780
00:40:34,876 --> 00:40:36,843
we're looking for a star.
781
00:40:36,878 --> 00:40:42,014
Bernie burns,
I like the retro futurism.
782
00:40:42,016 --> 00:40:46,118
Misty rose, you have
a universal pop appeal.
783
00:40:46,154 --> 00:40:50,022
The look of your alter ego
is international.
784
00:40:51,759 --> 00:40:54,927
The decision that
the other judges and I made
785
00:40:54,963 --> 00:40:58,598
is to put misty through
to the next round.
786
00:40:58,666 --> 00:41:00,600
♪ I need you all night
787
00:41:00,602 --> 00:41:05,505
congratulations, misty rose.
That is three votes.
788
00:41:05,507 --> 00:41:09,742
We will see you
at the head-to-head round.
789
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:16,148
I'm so sad to say this,
bernie burns,
790
00:41:16,150 --> 00:41:20,820
but we're gonna have to say
goodbye to you tonight.
791
00:41:20,922 --> 00:41:22,989
You were absolutely awesome.
792
00:41:23,057 --> 00:41:25,458
But before you go,
793
00:41:25,527 --> 00:41:27,927
we'd love for you to perform
one last time
794
00:41:27,929 --> 00:41:29,762
and for you to reveal
your identity.
795
00:41:29,797 --> 00:41:31,964

Yeah!
814
00:42:48,876 --> 00:42:52,211
Oh, my goodness.
815
00:42:53,715 --> 00:42:54,947
That was sick!
816
00:42:55,016 --> 00:43:01,020
Judges, this is erny,
aka bernie burns.
817
00:43:01,022 --> 00:43:03,789
- Erny!
- What's up, erny?
818
00:43:03,825 --> 00:43:07,026
- Hey.
- What do you do for a living
outside this alter ego?
819
00:43:07,028 --> 00:43:09,695
- I'm 17. I, uh--
- you're 17?
820
00:43:09,731 --> 00:43:11,263
- Erny: Yeah.
- No way!
821
00:43:11,299 --> 00:43:14,934
- What?
- Beautiful, man.
822
00:43:15,003 --> 00:43:16,235
I can't wipe
the smile off my face.
823
00:43:16,270 --> 00:43:19,739
I mean, it's so much fun
to watch you do
824
00:43:19,774 --> 00:43:20,840
what you clearly love to do.
825
00:43:20,908 --> 00:43:22,241
And I think
everyone in this room
826
00:43:22,276 --> 00:43:26,178
loved watching you do it.
827
00:43:26,247 --> 00:43:29,949
- Erny,
how did that feel for you?
- Very emotional experience.
828
00:43:30,018 --> 00:43:34,153
I'm a very shy person,
and so being bernie burns,
829
00:43:34,188 --> 00:43:36,856
I felt that he was
everything I wanted to be.
830
00:43:36,924 --> 00:43:38,157
Which was what?
831
00:43:38,192 --> 00:43:40,860
Well, he was cool,
832
00:43:40,928 --> 00:43:42,762
he was, you know, handsome.
833
00:43:42,797 --> 00:43:45,231
- You're handsome.
- And you're cool.
834
00:43:45,266 --> 00:43:46,632
You're cool
and handsome, brother.
835
00:43:46,634 --> 00:43:50,936
- Thank you.
- Lots of love to you, erny.
836
00:43:51,005 --> 00:43:53,072
Thank you so much.
You did it.
837
00:43:53,074 --> 00:43:54,874
Crowd:
Erny, erny, erny, erny!
838
00:43:54,909 --> 00:43:57,343
Join us tomorrow as five
new alter egos hit the stage
839
00:43:57,345 --> 00:44:00,046
for the second night
of our two night premiere
840
00:44:00,048 --> 00:44:02,782
after "the masked singer."
good night.
