Icon of the Islands search begins

The search for the next Caribbean superstar sets stage in The Bahamas, with the Icon of the Islands talent search and reality TV documentary series.
The journey will kick off today, with auditions at SuperClubs Breezes.
Founder and Executive Producer of Icon of the Islands Alvin Marks said The Bahamas will not only be hosting season two of the talent extravaganza, but it will be the iconic "Hollywood" for the project.
"If you're familiar with American Idol, they go from city to city, and they always use Hollywood for their final stop, so we're basically using a similar formula with The Bahamas being the final destination," he said.
"After we visit all these different islands, we bring The Bahamas in as the grand finale spot."
When asked the reason for The Bahamas being chosen as the backdrop for this iconic event, Marks said: "Basically, not only The Bahamas being one of the key tourism attractions in the Caribbean, but it's a lot of spotlight on The Bahamas.
"From all the amenities and all the different historical factors of The Bahamas, I think it's a great story line."
A short-listed group of contestants will advance one step closer to being the winner, and those selected few will also be the stars of the Icon of the Islands reality TV show.
One grand prize winner, Marks said, will receive a prize package inclusive of the Icon award, a record and development deal with a major label, $10,000, as well as an all-expense paid trip to New York City to record their projects.
Marks said the winner will also be the star of their own music video.
