The second season of Your Face Sounds Familiar was a singing and impersonation competition for celebrities on ABS-CBN. Sharon Cuneta, Gary Valenciano and Jed Madela reprise their duties as judges. Billy Crawford also returns as host; however, he is accompanied by Melai Cantiveros, the winner of the first season.

The show replaced the second season of The Voice Kids and began airing on September 12, 2015.

After 14 weeks, Denise Laurel emerged as the winner after garnering 27.51% of the public's votes. Laurel is the only contestant who did not win in any weekly competition of the show, meaning she received no prizes before the conclusion of the grand showdown.

Development

On June 6, 2015, during the first season's grand showdown it was announced that the show will return for a second season. It premiered on September 12, 2015, taking over the time slot vacated of the then-recently concluded second season of The Voice Kids.

In August 2015, Melai Cantiveros, the winner of the first season was announced to co-host the show, impersonating different icons. Sharon Cuneta, Gary Valenciano, Jed Madela, and Billy Crawford were reported to return to the show to reprise their duties.

The performers for the show were revealed during the finals weekend of the second season of The Voice Kids, in which host Billy Crawford and the jury dueted with the season's finalists.

On November 14, 2015, the show moved its timeslot to 9:30 p.m. on Saturdays and 9:15 p.m. on Sundays after Pinoy Big Brother: 737 ended in order to give its original timeslot to Dance Kids.

The finals of the show, dubbed The Grand Showdown was held on December 12–13, 2015 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater, Resorts World Manila. The finalists were given the chance to impersonate an icon of their choice.

Since Laurel and Pangilinan tied for the fourth slot for the finals, both advanced to the finale adding an additional fifth finalist to the Grand Showdown.
