Indonesian Idol
Indonesian Idol is an Indonesian reality television singing competition created by Simon Fuller and produced by RCTI Production Team and FremantleMedia Asia. The show began airing on RCTI in March 2004 and became one of the most popular shows in the history of Indonesian television. Part of the Idol franchise, it was as a spin-off from the UK show Pop Idol.
The concept of the series is to find new solo recording artists where the winner is determined by the viewers. Through telephone calls, SMS text, and the RCTI+ app voting, viewers have chosen 13 winners to date: Joy Tobing, Mike Mohede, Ihsan Tarore, Rini Wulandari, Januarisman, Igo Pentury, Regina Ivanova, Nowela Auparay, Maria Simorangkir, Lyodra Ginting, Rimar Callista, Salma Salsabil, and Shabrina Leanor (listed in chronological order).
The series employs a panel of judges who critique the contestants' performances. The judges of the inaugural season were jazz musician Indra Lesmana, pop diva Titi DJ, radio personality Meuthia Kasim, and film director Dimas Djayadiningrat. The judging panels in the following seasons included TV hosts Indy Barends and Jamie Aditya, composer Erwin Gutawa, musicians Ahmad Dhani, Anang Hermansyah, and Maia Estianty; and singers Agnez Mo, Armand Maulana, Tantri Syalindri, Rossa, Ari Lasso, Bunga Citra Lestari, David Bayu, and Indonesian Idol season 2 runner-up Judika.
The show's inaugural season was hosted by radio DJ Atta and TV host Irgi Ahmad Fahrezy. In 2006, MTV Indonesia's VJ Daniel Mananta replaced Irgi as the main host, while singer Dewi Sandra replaced Atta in 2008, until Daniel Mananta became the sole host of the show in 2010–2012. In 2017, presenter Sere Kalina was added as a second host. In 2020, TV host, YouTuber, and former VJ Boy William replaced Daniel Mananta as the sole host of the show.
The show has won several awards, including the 2005 and 2006 Panasonic Awards for the Best Music Variety Show. The show won over its popular rival singing competition show at the time, Akademi Fantasi Indosiar (known locally as AFI).
After the fifth season, the show was discontinued because of declining ratings before it resumed with its sixth season in 2010. The seventh season was held in 2012 and rapidly became the most successful season in the history of Indonesian Idol. Originally planned to be replaced by X Factor Indonesia in 2013, both shows were broadcast every alternate year. The show's rating declined again in 2014 which resulted in another discontinuation, when it was replaced by The Voice Indonesia. However, due to its low ratings, RCTI announced in June 2017 that Indonesian Idol would return after a three-year hiatus. The 13th season of the show premiered on Monday, 9 December 2024.
The show originally had four judges, namely jazz musician Indra Lesmana, Indonesian pop singer Titi DJ, radio personality Meuthia Kasim, and film director Dimas Djayadiningrat. In season three, radio and television personality Indy Barends replaced Meuthia Kasim because of Meuthia's health. Indy stayed only for one season and left the show before season four. In season four, MTV video jockey, actor, and radio host Jamie Aditya replaced Indy Barends; and musician, singer, producer, and impresario Anang Hermansyah replaced Dimas Djay. In season five, Jamie left the panel, and only three judges—Indra, Titi, and Anang—were left. In 2010, Indra Lesmana and Titi DJ left the panel and were replaced by composer and conductor Erwin Gutawa and singer–actress Agnes Monica. Indonesian and Malaysian pop singer Rossa joined the panel to be the fourth judge. In 2012, Anang Hermansyah and Agnes Monica returned as judges, while a frontman of Dewa 19—musician, composer, and hits-maker music producer Ahmad Dhani—replaced Erwin Gutawa. In 2014, Titi DJ returned to the panel, while Agnes Monica left the panel and was replaced by singer and vocalist of Kotak Band Tantri Syalindri. Anang and Dhani returned as judges. In 2018, RCTI announced that all judges from last season would not be returning and the number of the panel was changed from four judges to five. Pop-rock singer and ex-frontman of Dewa 19, Ari Lasso; frontman of Gigi and songwriter Armand Maulana; music producer and musician Maia Estianty; actress and pop singer BCL, and the runner-up of Indonesian Idol season 2, Judika, were all set for the panel. For season 10, or "Idol X", all the judges from previous season returned, except for Armand, due to his duties on another talent show, who was replaced by a previous season's judge, Anang Hermansyah, after a hiatus of one season. In the 2020 season, BCL was replaced by pop singer Rossa, due to BCL's mental health after her husband's death in the same year. In the 2022 season, Maia and Ari were replaced by the judge exiting from the Special Season; BCL also rejoined the panel. The ex-frontman of Naif, David Bayu, was the new judge.
Guest judges may occasionally be introduced. In season one, the guest judge was pop singer Krisdayanti. In season two, musician, music producer, composer, and songwriter Yovie Widianto replaced Dimas Djay. Musician, composer, songwriter, and music producer Ahmad Dhani replaced Meuthia Kasim in the Any Cities audition. In season four, Titi DJ was replaced several times by comedian, actress, radio host, and singer Tika Panggabean in the Spectacular Show. In season six, singer, songwriter, music producer, composer, and music arranger Melly Goeslaw; Ahmad Dhani; frontman for ST 12 Charly van Houten; frontman for Ungu Pasha; and frontman for Gigi Armand Maulana were the guest judges in the Spectacular Show. Guest judges were used in the audition rounds in seasons five, six, and seven: such as singer Rio Febrian, Melly Goeslaw, singer and songwriter Nugie, and Yovie Widianto in season five and Melly Goeslaw, Ahmad Dhani, singer Hedi Yunus, pop-jazz singer Andien, and singer Nina Tamam in season seven.
