is it because malay contestants are better at crooning than chinese wannabes?

deepak.c SG

That's because most folks that call in to vote are Malay females.

That's why the Malay guys always wins.

Which guy so bo liao call in to waste money to vote?

dragg SG

malays are generally better singers of english songs than chinese.

weymas SG

because malays sing better than chinese? although there are very good chinese singers out there.. heh.

Veggie Bao SG

I have several theories regarding this matter.

First, the Chinese attention is split into other talent competitions on other channels.

Second, there is the Obama factor in voting. Members of majority do not mind voting for other races, while members of the minority vote more strongly for a member of their group.

(Caucasian vote is half to Obama, but African-American vote is 97% to Obama)

If there is Project Superstar, there will be a high chance of a chinese winning it.

more of why are there no female winners in singapore idol so far.

Because the voters of Singapore Idol are mainly in the 'young teenage girls who scream their heads off over handsome hunks' demographic.

That explains why we can have fellas like Sylvester Sim and Joakim Gomez last for so long in the previous seasons even though they can't sing to save their own lives.

We will never have a female Singapore Idol.

Because generally Chinese teens have lesser pocket money because their parents are busy paying off 5 room housing and a big SUV.

While malay teens have more money because 1 room flats are cheap, there is no car to support and they still get free money from the government every month.
