I can imagine the coins being sucked into a dark hole as "miscellaneous fees" already..
The Malay community is very close-knit - I can only guess that they are very willing to show their support.
I honestly liked Sylvia more, though.
-
I think the she can sing so much
better then the kid
-
Sylvia is a much better singer, but then again, it's racial, like I said in an earlier post.

the last song sang by

Some voters are indeed dumb. -
I feel so too. I support Sylvia.
-
My vote is for sylvia too.
-
Actually, the person need not be a winner to be famous.
If the popularity is there and Sylvia signs a record company, she can also make it big.
-
i think the ger is better
though i sarpok neither -

wah malay again ah...wtf. Every season also malay, i honestly tink sylvia is a better performer. Sezairi is quite versatile but he's not as charismatic an idol as sylvia.
malays spend like there's no tomorrow. Same in malaysia, same in indonesa......i wonder why. This singapore idol thing is a farce already. Racial demographics are at work here.
-
I doubt there will be a Season 4.
-
Why some people are bring the racial issue? Don't they know the format of the idol - it depends on votes. You don't vote and you expect your favourite idol to win. Come on guys, wake up. Give credit when it is due. Even the two judges (Ken Lim and Dick Lee) said the Malay guy deserved to win based on performance on the final and he is a musician.. See ST, Life Section today. I wondered why Florence did not comment.

Cha bo.

slyvia is a bitch! Tabitha should be there instead of her
Proud of Sezairi.

It's more of a popularity contest than a talent contest. Whoever gets more votes wins - it's as simple as that. It's not a true gauge of talent. And it's partly for that reason that I don't watch the Idol franchise and its ilk. A lot of gifted, original and maverick musicians out there who don't have a huge following would probably not last on such shows.

That is why I have stopped watching. -
sometimes when i switch on the tv, i thought i've pressed on the wrong button which ends me up at suria instead, or has Anugerah shifted to channel 5?
-
Come on guys. Be sporting. Why bring the race or language issue again? Why harping on this issue? You know very well channel 5 is a English language channel. Grow up please
-
It would be naive to think that voters casted their votes solely on the performance of the night itself. If sg idol 4 also produces a malay winner, then may i suggest that the votes of sg idol 4 be analysed in terms of race and repetitions by the same house/mobile number. If it does suggest that the vote numbers were inclined towards a certain race, then perhaps to be fair, we should have a one man one vote system.
Of course, that wouldn't happen cos less calls means less revenue lol. So at the end of the day, sg idol screws itself and risks becoming a farce.
-
How to change the format of Sg Idol. It has to follow American Idol due to franchise. So please do not bring the race issue again. Vote and spend money if you want your favourite to win. Dick Lee the judge also said in ST that he could see that he would work more in future with Sylvia than the winner due to commercial value. At least he was being frank "commercial value"
-
Let me just sum up everything:
Singapore Idol is a popularity contest and not a talent contest. In the end, it is the one with the most popularity who wins. That explains why terrible singers like Sylvester Sim and Joakim Gomez can make it so far in previous years.
Like it or not, the selection process for the winner was via fully democratic means. He who has the greater number of supporters wins. If Sezali won because he had more supporters, then so be it. That is what democracy is all about. Capice?
By the way, this is precisely the reason why I stayed away from SG Idol from the very beginning - because the contest is no true measure of singing aptitude, and the democratic process of the contest favours popularity over talent.
-
Dun blame the contestants or their race.
The idol won through popularity and not necessary talent.
It is a show that SUCK money that is why they have money to have it in the indoor stadium.
It is the same effect for the Ren Ci and NKF show.
