People’s Choice is a fundraising competition that runs alongside the talent show. Every contestant has their own fundraising page, and supporters vote for their favorite contestant by donating — every dollar equals one vote. People’s Choice opens in January and runs through the end of the show, where the winner with the most votes (dollars raised) is announced at the very last moment of the evening.
