Star Search 2003

From March 2003, Star Search 2003 began its 3-nationwide talent search for individuals with star potential in Singapore, Malaysia and China. Auditions have been carried out in each of the 3 countries and training for the shortlisted star wannabes are ongoing. Each of the 3 countries will then select 4 Star Search contestants (2 male, 2 female) to compete at the Grand Finals on June 29 in Singapore.

During the 3-hour power-packed competition, the 12 finalists competed in the areas of star appeal, acting, singing and dancing, and hosting.

But what’s different this year is that viewers will have a hand in deciding the winner too. They can vote for the best contestant via SMS, contributing the remaining 10% of the total score.

Star Appeal - 50%
Markers include beauty/good looks, audience appeal, charisma, outstanding personality, confidence level

Talent & Performance - 50%
Markers include Acting, Drama, Comedy, Stage, Singing/Dancing and Hosting abilities

Get ready for a colourful night of drama, song and dance as finalists don and take on a potpourri of characters such as White and Green Snake in period drama Madam White Snake, characters from the musical Chang & Eng and the characters of Anna and the King in The King And I.

Perhaps the greatest challenge for the finalists lie in the acting segment where they will portray various characters from our local productions which have made an indelible impression.

In conjunction with celebrations for MediaCorp TV’S 40th anniversary, the 12 finalists will also regale us with famous songs from the 4 decades.
