Almost everybody knows that GMA 7 now owns the right to air the new Idol show in the Philippines, which will be called “Pinoy Idol”. And today, the network has just started calling the attention of Idol aspirants around the nation.

As shown on TV, audition dates and venues are now being announced and will take place in major areas in the provinces such as Cebu, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro and more. You may check out the TV plug for more/specific details. But take note, from what I have heard they are searching for the first Pinoy Idol so I believe the claims that this show will be treated as a new and independent of the first season is true. So this means, Mau Marcelo might not be considered the first winner.

Pinoy Idol, as what it will be called (no longer Philippine Idol), is rumored to be aired on the first quarter or around February of 2008.

As to who will judge and host the show is still a big question left to the viewers. Of course, there are rumors that Ryan Agoncillo and Ryan Cayabyab from the first season will still be part of this show while others say that it can be Mo Twister, Drew Arellano, Paolo Bediones or still Regine Velasques who used to host previous singing competitions of the network.

Aside from Pinoy Idol, GMA 7 holds the airing rights of Fremantle’s shows such as Celebrity Duets, Whammy, and Family Feud. On the other hand, the new season of American Idol will be aired on GMA 7 owned station, QTV Channel 11.

So who you think should be the judges and host of this show?
