Bionic Buzz® got to cover The Uplive WorldStage Press Conference / red carpet at the W Hotel in Hollywood, CA. Participants from over 150 regions will compete for thousands in prize money and talent contracts. Uplive is the largest independent global video social entertainment platform with more than 260 million registered users from over 150 countries.
WorldStage finalists are judged by Emmy/Grammy award winner Paula Abdul and ranked by peer-voting shown on a leader board.
Last year’s competition (formerly known as Singing for the World) drew over 4,000 participants from 20 regions around the world, and this year’s contest has expanded to over 150 participating regions. The grand prize includes a hit song and video produced by a Grammy producer, as well as a recording deal.
Uplive is committed to empowering creators with cutting-edge technology while providing a global stage upon which to showcase their talents. The month-long competition will be streamed live 24 hours a day and will include head-to-head PK battles and a “party mode” where mentors, judges and viewers can participate. The top 100 finalists will receive talent host contracts from Uplive. There will be two top winners, one crowned by Paula Abdul as the overall winner and one “People’s Choice” winner crowned by other judges and viewers.
There are mentors such as Blac Chyna that will hold virtual mentoring sessions with top tiered talent. Both winners will receive $5000 in prize money, a virtual mentoring session with industry leaders, a recording contract, and a personalized song written by Grammy nominated producers.
Winners will also have a chance to record at or join Uplive Boy Bands or Girl Bands in cooperation with KDS studios, which has produced albums for some of the biggest artists in the U.S. including Justin Timberlake, NSYNC, Usher, and Christina Aguilera. The competition is now live and more information can be found at https://www.upliveworldstage.com/2021
