MediaCorp’s annual prize show is drawing all sorts of flak. And the top six viewer grouses are…
LOVE or loathe it, it’s here once again.
On 26 Apr, the annual Star Awards show, which celebrates the best in local Chinese entertainment over the past year, will be telecast live on Channel 8.
This year’s show, unlike previous editions, stands out for the numerous controversies it has been embroiled in ever since the nominees list was released late last month.
And don’t forget the fuss kicked up by television viewers over the show’s postponement. It has traditionally been held at the end of the year.
The industry talk? Aiyah, so obvious, must be to accomodate The Little Nyonya right, so the show can sweep all the awards.
But it’s not just the TV drama’s dominating presence on the nominations lists that is creating ripples.
Here’s a look at the other “buay song” (Hokkien for not satisfied) factors about the upcoming Little Nyonya… oops, sorry, we mean the Star Awards…
2. Aw, you can’t be serious
Buay Song Factor:
Jeanette Aw in the running for Best Actress? You gotta be kidding!
Why Buay Song:
Though her popularity soared after The Little Nyonya, Jeannette has also drawn heavey fire (particularly on the Stomp and Hardware Zone forums) for her “wooden acting”, “lousy articulation” and “unnatural expressions”.
Our Take:
Whatever you think of her acting abilities, come on, give the gal a rest.
If you caught The Little Nyonya’s “Making Of”special, you’ll know that Jeannette went through a lot of physical hardship for the role, including getting beaten for real during scenes when her character was caned by PanLingling.
In The New Paper Flame Awards earlier this year, Jeannette was expected to bag the Babe of the Year title. But when the final votes were tallied, Rui En clinched the prize.
Perhaps that’s a sign that all hype is just hype at the end of the day. The true extent of Jeanette’s popularity remains to be seen come Star Awards night.

2009年红星大奖，最受欢迎男女艺人40强名单出炉。艺人在记者会上，通过摇珠的方式，拿到代表他们的观众电话投选号码。《小娘惹》势如破竹，欧萱、戚玉武、白薇秀、方展发、林梅娇、向云和潘玲玲，在演出之后，人气直升，成功入围。
经济不景气，影迷也面对荷包缩水的压力。艺人们不担心票数减少，反而呼吁影迷不要花太多钱。
瑞恩说：“我很感谢你们的支持，可是我希望你们不要过头地去花钱，因为要为你们的父母亲着想，其实我有想过这个问题就是，我宁愿不要进（十大），也不要他们去花他们爸爸妈妈的钱。”
另外，在新人辈出的环境下，今年却出现”阿叔当道”。刘谦益、郑各评、朱厚任等资深演员，人气红过年轻偶像，入围最受欢迎男艺人。

七公主‘平安’晋升
新传媒七公主成功入围20大，今年将是欧萱、陈靓瑄、白薇秀、瑞恩、刘芷绚、谢宛谕和姚懿珊之争。自《小娘惹》播出后，欧萱被誉为“明日阿姐”，人气大升之外，在不景气的当儿接下不少广告，财源滚滚来；之前甚至有说“红星”延后，正是为了欧萱，所以她能在20大巩固一席之位，似乎是意料之内。
20大女艺人
白薇秀、欧萱、芮恩、姚懿珊、刘芷绚、陈靓瑄、谢宛谕、向云、金银姬、郭舒贤、潘玲玲、林梅娇、赖怡伶、林湘萍、李锦梅、权怡凤、谢韵仪、钟琴、莫小玲、洪慧芳
