It’s been a heartbreaking weekend, what with news of veteran MediaCorp actor Huang Wenyong’s sudden passing making waves across the island. The sobering mood certainly infiltrated the usually jolly, glitzy Star Awards ‘Show 1’ on Sunday – artistes had trouble holding back tears as they recalled fond anecdotes of their beloved colleague.

Fans were definitely impacted as well, and immediately took action to get Wenyong back into the Top 10 Most Popular Male Artistes. Their votes paid off – after a brief disappearance last week, Wenyong is now back in the rankings (as of 22 April, 2pm), where we believe his name will remain until the final results are announced during ‘Show 2’ this weekend.

As for the ladies, week four saw the return of Joanne Peh and Quan Yi Fong, while Zhou Ying bid ‘sayonara’ to her spot. Most of the other female artistes on the list have been strong contenders since the beginning. Jeanette Aw, Pan Ling Ling, Rebecca Lim, Rui En, Vivian Lai and Yvonne Lim have been in the rankings since week one, while Belinda Lee and Ann Kok have held on tight since week two. Kym Ng entered the Top 10 last week, and is proving that she’s here to stay.
