Notes

1. Over the course of the semifinals, three (3) different scoring formulas were adopted:
   • For Quarter 1, public votes of each contender is based on the total accumulated public votes. However, the revealed percentages saw the voting percentage did not accumulate to 100%. There is also no clear formula in computing the final scores for the first quarter since it does not fit the second to fourth quarter scoring formulas.
   • For Quarters 2 and 3, public votes of each contender is based on the contender with the most public votes. The contender with the most votes automatically gets 100% for the public vote. Judges' score and public's vote is then averaged out.
   • For Quarter 4 until the finale, public votes of each contender is based on the contender with the most public votes. The contender with the most votes automatically gets 100% for the public vote. Each scoring component is presented in its half value (e.g. 100% is shown only half which is 50%). After that, the two scoring components is added. For the purposes of consistency, all scoring components here will be presented in full value. Rounding errors may appear, with either voting component may lack at least 0.01%.
2. ^ Judges' name in boldface indicates that that judge or hurado is the head judge or punong hurado
