Good, this topic allows me to rant my thoughts out.
Singapore Idol? Ok. I missed most of it but the judging is by
professional judges and not entirely or mostly by voting right? And
Taufik CAN sing. Slyvester is better in chinese songs, not english.
He joined the wrong competition but he still make it.
Project Superstar! WTF, I have the exact same thoughts as the
threadstarter. Voting by public is 70% in semi finals and 100% in
the finals, WRONG, Totally screwed up! Its a singing competition
ffs, the judging system makes it look like its a popularity
competition. I've only watched the semi finals and the finals and
all I can say is, the wrong person emerged champion.
During semi finals. Sin Huey and Junyang were better than Kelly and
Weilian. Judges selected Sin Huey and Junyang as finalists. Public
with no sense of hearing (Well, sad to say, most of them) selected
Weilian and Kelly (No offence to fans of these 2 here, I'm just
being very frank about it). Fine. During the finals, judges felt
that Kelly is better than Weilian in her performance. In the end?
Weilian is the champion.
Have you notice Weilian gets more and more nervous, screwing up his
performances more as the judges revealed that Kelly is
better?
And one more thing I wanna attract everyone's attention to is the
interviewing of passers-by on streets about Project
Superstar...
Who do you support and why?
"Oh, I support Weilian cos he is blind, yet he still went to
participate in this competition"
Notice anything yet?
"I've seen him singing in Orchard Road before, and I pity him for
being blind and still he has the courage to go for such a
competition"
And whats worse is
"Of course I support Weilian lor. Cause I find him very
handsome"
THIS IS TRUE. I REALLY SAW SOMEONE SAYING THAT
But one thing that stopped me from throwing my sofa at the
television is
"I've always admire his singing and looks forward to meeting him
everytime I come to orchard"
At least there are some sensible people
If you ask me which is my favourite, I'll say its Project
Superstar, since I'm interested in chinese songs. But if they don't
change the judging system in the next season of Project Superstar,
My interest will definitely fly to Singapore Idol
My above post
has absolutely no offence to anyone. I'm just saying out all my
thoughts. This is a forum. You know right? Good
