rocsi: Tonight,
the "alter ego" semi-finals come to a close.
- Hit it. - ♪ welcome to the future
the remaining four singers and their customized alter egos
have one last opportunity to impress the judges and studio audience

I would be in your audience.
...And the chance to be mentored

If you get to the finals, you can't trip.
- You gotta come equipped. - ...In hopes of becoming
the first digital superstar of our next generation?
I did not see that coming.
This is "alter ego."
♪ the future
welcome to "alter ego," the semi-finals.
I am your host rocsi diaz.
I gotta introduce or fabulous judges.
Musician, producer, and tech entrepreneur, will.I.Am!
Singer, songwriter, and artist,
the legendary alanis morissette.
Producer, artist, and innovator grimes.
And actor, singer, and host nick lachey.
What's up?
These four alter egos have come a long way to be here,
but by the end of tonight,
two alter egos will be eliminated
and reveal their true identity to the judges,
and two will secure their spots in the finale.
Judges, what are you hoping to see tonight?
Well, we've talked a lot about all those elements converging together,
like, the technology with the talent with the stage presence,
so I think what I'm looking for tonight
is who can combine that humanity and that emotion
with this ridiculous technology
and give us the best "alter ego" moment.
I think that's what's gonna set two of you apart
and sends you on into our finals, yeah.
All right, guys, we're gonna see you all perform a little later tonight,
but, seven, you're up first.
Let's do this.
To make it to the finals means everything to me.
By only four votes...
- What? - Grimes: Oh, my god.
Seven!
For so long,
people didn't understand that my voice was deep.
But with seven, there isn't a preconceived notion of who I am,
and it allowed me to really grow into myself.
As an artist, I've never wanted anything
or needed anything more than this.
To not make it to the finals
means that I lose seven.
I would lose my chance of breaking into the industry.
Everything is at stake, which is why tonight
I'm really just trying to get on my a-game.
( vocalizing )
I've changed my diet. I'm running and singing on the treadmill.
♪ so you're a tough guy, like-it-really-rough guy ♪
I'm doing whatever that I can
to be able to get to that next level,
and I really believe that seven
is going to bring people together.
The world needs love.
People need to feel that connection again,
and I know that seven is the avatar to do that.
- Hey, seven. - Hey, grimes.
I'm really curious, how do you see yourself pushing yourself tonight?
Well, I've been working my butt off,
and everything that I do is for one moment,
because I want to show why I am the next generation superstar.
- Wow. - Grimes: Let's hear you sing.
All right.
Everyone's been revealing much more about who they really are.
I can taste it. Yeah.

- Crowd: Seven! Seven! Seven! - That was awesome.
You're just a fascinating performer to watch.
You really command attention when you're out there,
and you're continuing to put it all together in a very cool way, so congrats.
Now the alter ego on the diamond at the end of the show
will secure a spot in the finale.
But in this semi-final round,
no one automatically goes to the diamond.
Each alter ego will need at least three judge votes
to make it up there.
Judges, it's time for your vote.
I just wanna say at this point,
I think you should be feeling really good.
This is, um-- oh, ha-ha.
I didn't even mean to do that, but, um...
- Like, literally. - Hold on one second.
Can I just-- did I just hear grimes make a pseudo-dad joke?
- No, I didn't. It was an accidental! - Am I rubbing off on you?
- It was accidental. It was accidental. - Some of the best ones are.
Grimes: But to me, seven, you're on the wave of the future,
and that was totally fire, and I'm gonna say yes
to you going on the diamond.
Alanis?
Seven, your voice is so beautiful,
and your energy is really exciting to me, too.
So, I'm gonna put seven up on that diamond.
Rocsi: That is two votes for seven.
All they need is one more vote. Will?
The marriage between your alter ego
and the classic song that you sang
but with the fresh twist on it, I think was great.
At the end of the day, we're looking for a star.
And I think you have what it takes to go all the way,
and that's the reason why I want to put seven on the diamond.
That is the three votes that seven needs
to be up on that diamond.
Congratulations.
This semi-final is far from over.
When we come back, the rest of our alter egos perform,
and we'll find out who's sticking around
and who's heading home.
More "alter ego" coming your way after this.
Yeah.
Wow. Wowie.
It's gonna get really tough now.
It's mariah and safara till the end.
I thought that was fire.
No one's gonna slip up in this environment.
Jake: So many people would kill to be in a position like this.
At this point, the competition is between you two.
Rocsi: The studio audience has voted for...
Welcome back. This is "alter ego." I am rocsi diaz.
Seven has been put on the diamond by our judges,
and I'm pretty sure the next alter ego
is ready to get on the diamond as well.
It's safara.
It feels really great to be in the semi-finals.
I'm gonna choose safara to go to the diamond.
When the judges put me through in the head-to-head round...
Get it, baby.
...That was really a breakthrough moment for me.
Rocsi: Go on up there, girl.
Safara's confidence is definitely rubbing off on me.
I feel like the reason I haven't been successful
in my music career this far is my insecurities and my social anxiety.
I kind of just feel like maybe they won't want to talk to me
or something because of the way that I look.
Yeah, I'm just nervous.
Having safara has definitely helped me grow
and learn to love myself more and to be more confident,
and that represents exactly the kind of artist I want to be.
It's important to me to make it to the finals
because I want to get what I've been working for my entire life,
a spot on that stage.
It's mariah and safara till the end.
Whoo!
Are you ready for tonight's performance?
I am. I am very ready for tonight's performance.
You know, uh...
This performance means a lot to me because I--
I've been told my whole life that--
that I will never make it as a singer
because of the way that I look.
And I just wanna prove everybody wrong,
and I want to everybody to know that--
( sobs ) thank you.
Well, I'm so proud of your conviction.
- Thank you. - And I stand connected
and believe in the theory that music has no shape.
- Or music is not supposed to have a shape. - Yeah. Thank you.
Are you ready to sing for us tonight?
- Yes, I am, will. - Let's go. Let's do this.
All right.

crowd: Safara! Safara! Safara! Safara!
- That was so awesome. - Yeah!
Really quick, keep it going for the musicians backing up
every single one of our alter egos tonight.
It's the incredible adam blackstone
and the alter ego band.
Judges, what did you think of safara's performance?
I thought that was fire.
Yeah, the power you have in your voice
when you were up there, that's where you excel.
I think we've seen a lot of growth.
I mean, you've really-- you've come so-fara.
Oh.
Judges, it's time to decide if safara is going on the diamond.
She will need at least three of your votes
to knock seven off the diamond and take their place.
It's time for your vote.
You know, I think at this point, this competition,
you know, we're looking at the whole artist's vibe.
Like, who's song am I waiting for next?
I mean, this is, like, really hard.
Um, I'm going to keep seven on the diamond
only just because I think seven has put a bit more time
into crafting their artistic persona.
Will?
For me, and how I was moved
not only by the performance--
and seven was great as well.
You brought it tonight.
But there's so much depth
in what safara said before you sang tonight
that really opened up my perspective of who safara is
and what you're truly fighting for.
And I just felt like safara was my sister tonight that I wanna fight for.
Yeah, so safara.
Thank you, will! Thank you!
All right.
So that is one vote for seven to stay on the diamond
and one vote for safara to take their place.
Safara, you need three votes to get on the diamond.
One more vote for seven will keep them on the diamond
and put you at risk of going home tonight.
Nick?
I love the way safara channeled all that emotion
into a really, really powerful performance.
I really am fascinated and entranced by seven,
and there's manipulation of their voice
and the different flavors and layers.
So I am going to keep seven up on the diamond.
Safara, unfortunately you didn't get the three votes needed
to get up on that diamond,
but nobody is going home just yet.
There's still so much show left.
We've got two more performances, and we'll find out
which two alter egos will be one step closer
to becoming our next generation superstar.
More "alter ego" after this.
- Okay, here we go. - ( crowd chanting )
okay, here we go, gang.
We're gonna meet our next alter ego.
Welcome back. This is "alter ego." I'm rocsi diaz.
Seven is on the diamond, hoping to get that coveted spot in the finale,
but will they be able to stay there?
That's up to our next alter ego. It's dipper scott.
Coming out of the head-to-head, I'm still feeling a little bit shook up.
♪ a little something for the pain ♪
I'm not gonna lie. Dipper's my favorite.
Hell yeah.
Being onstage on a big platform, it's all very strange to me.
I can't understand why you're not a superstar already.
But I'm thankful to be this far along.
I'm excited about the semi-finals.
The pressure's building. There's $100,000 on the line.
The mentorship from the judges could change my life forever,
and just the future of dipper scott could be interesting.
He could technically perform remotely.
I could be here in los angeles
performing for somebody in japan,
which would definitely be helpful for me
given the limitations from my crohn's disease.
♪ a little something for the pain ♪
to win the semi-final round,
I'm just gonna have to bring my a-game
and do something that no one else is doing.
- Yeah! - Alanis: Hi, dipper scott.
How do you feel about being this close to the finale?
A little terrified, but I'm pretty proud of myself actually.
I've never done anything like this. It's crazy.
Well, I'm curious too.
How do you feel like you've raised your level this week?
I brought something unique today
because the meaning of this song is a little more specific.
Basically, when I was a child,
I lost a big portion of my childhood,
and that's something I'll never get back.
So the message of the song
is from my younger self to me now
telling me to let go because he would probably
want me to just be happier,
and moving on is the only way to do that.
- Wow. - That's awesome.
What would it mean for you to win the whole thing?
It would mean a lot to me actually.
Um, I would pay off a lot of medical bills
with the winning money, for sure.
Are you ready to perform for us?
- I'm ready. - Okay.
Nick: Let's do it.
- I like the depth he put on that. - Mm-hmm.
- He's very charismatic. - He is.

Crowd: Dipper! Dipper! Dipper! Dipper!
Judges.
Tell us what you thought about dipper scott's performance.
You have so many qualities and ways of performing
that just really deeply resonate with me.
So just hearing the idea of your younger part singing
to your older part and asking to let go of something,
the fact that there's even that inner dialogue going on inside you is--
I would be in your audience, basically.
I'd love for you to be in my audience.
Judges, it's time for your votes.
Will seven stay,
or will dipper scott take their spot on the diamond
and be one step closer toward the finale?
And remember, he needs three of your votes to do so.
I don't know anything about dipper scott's backstory,
but for some reason I feel connected to dipper scott.
I don't know what it is.
I think that's the reason
why people are gonna resonate with dipper,
so I would see dipper scott on the diamond.
Rocsi: Grimes?
I mean, for me,
I kinda feel like at this point in the competition
it's between you two.
Um, this is really tough,
and I hate making these decisions,
but next generation superstar, to me, seven,
you're on the wave of the future,
and I'm going to keep seven on the diamond.
That is one vote for seven,
one vote for dipper.
Alanis?
I'm actually compelled by both of you,
so this is truly a torturous moment for me.
Crowd: Dipper! Dipper!
Um, just because I'm such a highly, highly sensitive person,
I'm guessing that, dipper, you are as well,
and I'm going to vote for you to go up on that diamond.
Rocsi: All right, nick, dipper scott needs your vote
to take seven's spot on the diamond.
These are two of the most compelling,
fascinating, interesting, enjoyable alter egos
that we've seen throughout this entire competition.
There's something about dipper scott
that I gotta vote to put him up on the diamond.
Those are the three votes he needed.
Dipper scott, congratulations.
You are headed up on that diamond.
Go ahead. Wow.
Seven, that means that you may be leaving the competition tonight.
( jeering )
we are one performance away from learning
which two alter egos will be moving on to the finale
and which two will be leaving us tonight.
More "alter ego" after this.
Orlando's performance is up next.
We need him on the mo-cap stage asap.
All right, here we go.
Welcome back. This is "alter ego." I'm rocsi diaz.
Three incredible singers have performed for us tonight.
Dipper scott is on the diamond
hoping to get that coveted spot in the finale.
But before we can find out anyone's fate,
there is one more alter ego who is ready
to step on this stage-- orlando deville.
The studio audience has voted for...
( vocalizing )
orlando deville to move on to the semi-finals.
Going into the semi-finals, it's a different ballgame.
More than half of the contestants have been eliminated by this point,
so the people that are sticking around are really good.
No one's gonna slip up in this environment.
Where'd your hair go?
Hey! So what were you thinking for my performance?
I just shared it with you.
We're going with the new york skyline.
Chase: Aw, that looks awesome.
- Hey, what's up, guys? - I just wanted to know,
can I start with my leg up on one of the buildings?
Yeah, I think that should be fine.
Hey, gang. What can I do for you?
Any chance orlando could be gold, but a more orange gold?
Something that's bold, makes more of a statement than we've had before?
- I think we can do that. - Thanks, everybody. Appreciate you.
- I like the suit. - Oh, thank you very much.
I'm glad you're digging my tux-cheeto this evening.
- Tux-cheeto. - You like that?
That's 24 karat velveeta right there.
Nick: These are the semi-finals.
How have you elevated your performance?
Well, first off, I've been lucky enough to work with some brilliant designers
in this building to bring my vision to life.
Let's give it up for everybody in this building, y'all.

Crowd: Orlando! Orlando!
Whoo! Orlando deville.
- That was hot. - Crowd: Orlando! Orlando!
Judges, was the third time a charm?
Well, it sure was charming. I'll give him that.
It was really, really, really strong.
- Alanis? - Yeah, I'm just excited.
Your swagger was sort of bubbling up at the beginning,
and then now I feel like your swagger's full blown.
Full blown swagger. That sounds like a medical condition.
Well, it all comes down to this.
The alter ego that the judges put on the diamond right now
will secure a spot in the finale.
So, will dipper stay,
or will orlando deville take his spot on the diamond
and in the finale?
Remember, he needs three of your votes to do so.
Judges, it's time for your votes. Grimes?
Like, when you first, like, came here, I was like, "oh, I don't know.
I don't know about this old school kind of thing."
and then you've sort of been slowly winning me over,
and I feel like that was your best performance.
But at this point right now in the competition,
I'm looking more for who am I attaching to the most?
And I feel like I'm already an actual fan of dipper.
So I'm gonna keep dipper on the diamond.
So that is one vote for dipper scott to stay on the diamond.
Orlando deville, you need three votes to get on the diamond,
and that is one vote for dipper scott.
One more vote for dipper will keep him on the diamond
and put you at risk of going home tonight. Nick?
Yeah, I thought, orlando, your performance was really strong tonight.
I thought continued to show growth on your part.
When I think of next generation superstar
and I think of what that means to me
in terms of being the entire package
of this combination of artistry
and technology and talent,
for me, there's just some superstar quality
about dipper scott.
And so I will also vote to keep dipper on that diamond.
Dipper scott is officially going to the finale.
Orlando deville, that means that you
may be leaving the competition tonight.
Three alter egos remain in the running for one spot in the finale.
Who will it be and who will go home?
We'll find out after the break. More "alter ego" after this.
First elimination of the night coming up.
Everyone to their marks.
Going to rocsi in three, two, one.
This is "alter ego." I'm rocsi diaz.
Three alter egos remain in the running
for one spot in the finale.
Let's welcome orlando deville,
seven, and safara back to the stage.
I will now ask the audience to vote for their favorite alter ego.
And the alter ego that receives the fewest number of audience votes
will have to say goodbye tonight.
I'm gonna have ptsd from this show.
I can now confirm
that the alter ego who received the fewest audience votes,
becoming the first alter ego to leave us tonight is...
Safara.
What?
( crowd gasping, groaning )
- man: Don't let her go! - Woman: Safara!
- What? What? - Rocsi: Safara, this is the end
of your journey with us here on "alter ego."
orlando deville and seven, you are safe for now.
The judges will decide your fate later tonight.
Safara, it's been such a pleasure having you here,
and we'd love if you would perform for us one last time
and reveal your true identity to the judges.
All righty, let's do it.
( laughs, sniffles )
make it loud one last time for safara.
Grimes: I feel like that's the most we've seen from her.
She's been very shy in the talking.
Yeah, she was shy before.
Alanis: Any nerves that may have been there seem to have disappeared.
Will: Definitely no nerves there.

Ow!

I learned to be confident in myself
and to love myself--
man, no matter what anybody has said about me.
( sobs )
alanis?
- I'm just so excited for you, yeah. - Aw, thank you.
I just get really excited, because when those voices in our head
that sabotage us and hold us back step aside,
then the real mariah emerges, and I am so excited for her.
And that voice inside your head, what I would say to it is,
"thanks for trying to help her and protect her, but it's not helping."
yeah. Thank you. Yeah.
- You have a beautiful voice. - Thank you.
Will: A beautiful aura. Like, when I said like,
"for some reason, you make me feel like
my sister that I wanna protect," I really meant that.
Thank you. I appreciate that. Thank you so much.
Honestly, like, yeah, you've been amazing,
and I think you should be really proud that you made it this far in the show.

Thank you. I am. I am. And I got confidence back. I got my happiness back.
And that's inval-- I mean, there's no money

Couldn't have said it better. Absolutely true.
- Thank you so much for being here. - Thank you.
Orlando deville and seven remain in the competition.
We only have room for one more alter ego in the finale.
Who will it be, and who will go home?
We'll find out after the break. More "alter ego" after this.
Last semi-final elimination coming up. Places everyone.
Here we go. Coming out of commercial. Here we go.
- ( trilling ) - here we go in five seconds.
Big applause.
Welcome back to "alter ego."
it's the end of our semi-final,
and now only two alter egos are left standing,
orlando deville and seven.
We're about to find out which alter ego will be taking
the very last spot in the finale.
Judges, it's time for your votes.
The alter ego who gets the most votes will head to the finale.
- Seven! Seven! - Orlando! Orlando!
Nick, which one of these alter egos
is the next generation superstar?
The tricky part for me in this
is that while both of you did such an outstanding job,
you're also both very different performers.
But I keep coming back to the phrase you used--
next generation superstar.
And when I think about all the ingredients that we've talked about
that make up that next generation superstar,
I just feel like--
I feel like seven is more poised
to step into that role.
So, I vote to send seven onto the finals.
- Rocsi: Alanis? - Orlando, you really brought it, and...
Yeah, it's style of music that I don't always listen to, but I always appreciate,
and I just feel like you stepped into it
and have zero ambivalence about being that performer.
And, seven, I still feel
very compelled by your performance
and by who you are as an alter ego,
and I wanna know more.
And that counts for a lot for me,
so I'm going to choose seven.
That is two votes for seven to move on to the finale.
They only need one more vote.
Will?
Orlando, when somebody has the ability
to transfix audiences to come, to go on tour,
inspire people to want to buy merchandise, that's magic.
And you have that.
But I have to go with what makes my heart feel a certain way.
The complete package was there,
and so I'm gonna vote to send seven to the finale.
That is three votes for seven.
Seven, you will be moving on to the finale.
We will see you there. Congrats.
Ugh! Orlando deville, I am so sorry.
But we would love for you to perform one last time
and reveal your true identity
by coming on out here and meeting the judges.
- How about that? - Sounds like a plan. Let's make it happen.
All right. Let's hear it for orlando deville.
