Which of 8 DAYS’ Favourite-est All-Time Fave Artistes said that?
BY JOCELYN LEE, YIP JIEYING
RBKD: It was very nice of 8Days to present lovely bouquets to the Top 5 “Favourite-est” All-Time Favourite Artistes sans Fann Wong at the backstage of Star Awards. We quote the recipient’s’ reaction here.
ZOE TAY: “I’m very happy and surprised at the results ‘cos there are so many All-Time Favourite Artistes on the list now and I want to thank my fans for voting for me. I’m very thankful for their support.â€
Huang Biren: “I’m surprised that Jeanette Aw isn’t in the Top Five. How can that be? She has so many fans! When I was looking at the results daily, I felt that I was monitoring stocks (laughs). One day I’m in second place, and another day, I dropped to the fifth place. I really want to thank my fans for voting. I haven’t been in Top 10 Most Popular Female Artistes for so long already, so I guess my fans were quite enthusiastic when it came to this!â€
Rui En: “Are you giving me flowers? But I didn’t win right? [Rui En’s manager whispers to her that she came in second in the poll]. Oh! You should have told me! I didn’t know about the poll till my manager told me. But I’m very honoured to be among the legends, and I want to thank my fans who have supported me in big and little ways.â€
Xiang Yun: “I still can’t believe that I’ve won [a Top 5 spot]. (Laughs) I’m not from this ‘era’ [of young artistes] anyway. But I’m very grateful that I still have fans who voted for me. It was a pleasant surprise, ’cos I didn’t know I was [in the running] till Zoe [Tay] told me about it and I saw that I was tagged on Instagram.â€

Rui En
RBKD: 8 Days said that the twists and turns of Rui En’s black and white Paule Ka gown presents some interesting optical illusions, making Rui En look like a svelte model from one angle and a curvy goddess in another.

RBKD: Same backstage shot which iweekly and Toggle took too. Caption’s interesting though, as Rui En shot back cheekily at a reporter who asked to take a photo of her dress in her tee and shorts, “What? You mean in this lovely look?”

They’re all icons.
BY JOCELYN LEE
RBKD: 8Days announced that after a week of intense voting with Zoe and Rui En taking turns to take the top spot right down to the final hours, Zoe eventually emerged top by the cut off and coming closely in second place is Ice Princess Rui En, followed by Singapore’s most internationally renowned TV star Fann Wong who is placed third. Next in fourth is local TV’s first ah jie Xiang Yun while everyone’s favourite acting powerhouse Huang Biren takes the fifth spot. 8Days commented that one could say that this is a list of Singapore showbiz’s most iconic queens, an A-list of A-listers, if you must.

RBKD: 8Days invited three anonymous industry insiders to predict the winners for this year’s Star Awards. While these opinions are not indicative of the results in any manner, it makes us proud as fans to hear such affirmation of Rui En’s acting from the insiders.
In their own words, the insiders are quoted as below:
Best Actress
Mediacorp Executive Producer: “Rui En. It’s refreshing to see her play a frumpy auntie. It’s a breakthrough for her ‘cos she usually plays a career woman or a cute bubbly girl in her dramas.”
Star Award-Winning Ch8 Actor: “Rui En. She put on so much weight for the role. She’s a born actress and she is able to show a different side of herself with every different character. But, as you know, the ones we predict to win usually won’t (laughs). That’s always the case!”
Industry Watcher: “We can’t deny how well Rui En played this role. Meanwhile, Jesseca’s role in Hero is quite blah. You can cast almost any actress in it and it wouldn’t differ much.”
8 Days’ Pick: Zoe Tay
RBKD: 8 Days said that their vote goes to Zoe for her touching role and also because it’s about time for Ah Jie to win an award again after she last won it 21 years ago.
