  Singapore Idol wildcard contestant Meryl Joan Lee withdraws
  
  SINGAPORE : Seventeen-year old Singapore Idol wildcard contestant Meryl Joan Lee has withdrawn from the competition because of school commitments.
  In a statement, Ms Lee said she was unable to juggle her studies and the Singapore Idol talent quest at the same time due to the rigorous schedule.
  
  MediaCorp says there will be no replacement and the remaining seven wildcard contestants will compete for the final four spots in the Top 12.
  
  Mathilda De Silva, Norman Then, Prmiero Ang, Gayle Nerva, Jay Lim, Choy Siew Woon and Geraldine Chua will battle it out in a performance to be shown on Channel 5 at 8pm on Wednesday.
  
  The results will be announced at 8.30pm on Thursday. - CNA /ct

  They screwed the results show last week, due to a "technical glitch" nurul, not matilda got the the 2nd highest number of votes. Thus kicking matilda from the official 12 to wildcards, and swapping nurul from wildcards to official top 12.

  Considering the free stays at hotel + the good food + free singing lessons + free visit to WWW, she actually has a net gain.

  Mediacorp shud stop producing such crappy shows to earn money from the audience through phone calls.
  I mean, Wad happened to Taufik? Syvester? Maia?
  Gone i say.
  This show only allows u to have one minute of fame.
  By the next minute, u'll be forgotten n Mediacorp pockets the money made.
  Crap.
  Looks like Meryl made the rite choice.
  
  Cheers.
