The second season of StarStruck was announced once again on GMA Network's variety program, SOP, where the hosts invited teenagers from 14 to 18 years old to audition for the upcoming season. Like its first season, much of the auditions were held at the GMA Network's headquarters and at SM Supermalls throughout the Philippines.

The show primer aired the untold secrets of the first season's final fourteen the life they had before and after StarStruck, and the changes StarStruck made into their lives.

The pilot episode was aired on October 11, 2004. With a new set of survivors and more rigid tests. The same rules were applied in selecting the Ultimate Survivors. StarStruck is shown only weekdays having Mondays to Thursdays will be tests and Fridays would be the elimination night. The show held its the Final Judgment on February 20, 2005 at the Araneta Coliseum.

In the second year of the reality-talent search, Out of thousands who auditioned nationwide, only the Top 100 was chosen for the first cut. From the Top 100, it was trimmed down to the Top 60, then from the Top 60 to the Top 30, and from the Top 30 to the final fourteen finalists.

The Final 14 underwent various workshops and training in order to develop their personalities, talents, and charisma. But, the twist is that every week, one or two hopefuls from the final fourteen may have to say goodbye until only four remain. Those who were eliminated were dubbed as StarStruck Avengers.

The Final 4 will vie for the coveted the Ultimate Survivors titles, the Ultimate Male Survivor and the Ultimate Female Survivor, both of them will received P1,000,000 pesos each plus and an exclusive management contract from GMA Network.

The Runners-up, both of them will received P250,000 each plus and an exclusive management contract from the network. The StarStruck Avengers (the losing contestants) also received an exclusive contract from the network.

When the Final 14 was chosen, they are assigned to different challenges every week that will hone their acting, singing, and dancing abilities. Every Friday, one is meant to leave the competition until there were just six others who are left. From survivor six, there will be two of them who will be eliminated and after the elimination of the two; the final four will be revealed.

The Final 4 will be battling with each other on the Final Judgment. People will choose who they want to win the competition by online voting and text voting. 30% of the result will come from the online and text votes and the remaining 70% is from the council.

This season was the first occurrence where a former eliminated contestant returned to the competition which was named The Avengers Strike's Back. The avengers competing with the remaining survivors are Jelaine Santos, Kevin Santos, Ailyn Luna, Ken Punzalan, Ana David, Chris Martin, Krizzy Jareño and CJ Muere.

CJ Muere was eliminated on December 24, 2004. But because of the Strike's Back, Benj Pacia was later replaced by him and returned to the contest through a major twist wherein an avengers will be given the chance to re-enter the contest by emerging with at least fourth-best in cumulative scores among the Survivor Six now consists of LJ Reyes, Megan Young, Ryza Cenon, Benj Pacia, Kirby de Jesus and Mike Tan.

CJ Muere emerged in the survivor six, and was reinstated while Benj Pacia was eliminated. Some viewers did not like this twist for it undermined the rules and regulations of the show. Although, the fans of CJ Muere and welcomed his return to the competition and proved to be worthy to be part of the elite final four. CJ Muere also got the highest Jollibee votes, thus he starred in a Jollibee Commercial.
