HaKokhav HaBa (Hebrew: הַכּוֹכָב הַבָּא, translated as "The Next Star") is an Israeli interactive reality singing competition, which was first broadcast on Channel 2 from September 17, 2013. It is based on the Rising Star franchise created by Keshet Broadcasting. The show is a continuation of the former program Kokhav Nolad (meaning "A Star is Born") which featured aspiring singers competing for a winning title. The program's format combines the internet, smartphones and television and is filmed live.
The shows inaugurative season in 2013 was won by Evyatar Korkus. Since season 2, the winner is given the opportunity to represent Israel in the Eurovision Song Contest. 2014–2015 winner Nadav Guedj represented Israel in 2015 with "Golden Boy" and 2015–2016 winner Hovi Star represented Israel in 2016 with "Made of Stars".
As the season begins, each contestant is asked to perform a well-known song in front of judges. After the song a vote is taken among judges whether to transfer the applicant to the test stage facing the audience at home. If the judges are not sure about how to vote, the contestant is required to perform another song, and then a decision is made.
Contestant who do move forward must then sing in front of an audience. Viewers then connect with an app at makoTV and decide in real time whether a contestant passes or does not pass.
Judges also influence the test stage - all judges may support the promotion of the contestant and thereby add 7% percent. Once the contestant reaches 70% of votes they "pass" and the screen opens and the contestant goes to the next level. 14 singers then move on to a section where the judges and the audience at home vote. At the final stage, four singers are left and one will be elected "The Next Star".
