Season 3

Espoir de succès was a Canadian reality competition for aspiring singers aged 15 or older, all of which were required to perform the most beloved hits in Canadian pop music history. A 50-piece symphony orchestra backed all the performances. The third season, also known as Espoir de succès 2012: Garçons seulement, started on 17 February and was hosted by ???.

This season was only for male contestants. Twelve of them were selected for the season, and each of them were assigned a color, similar to the short-lived British reality competition Any Dream Will Do. Controversy spread in the fifth episode when fellow judge ??? wore a short dress made out of recycled newspapers, most of which were published between the late 1990's and early 2000's.
