There I was, watching Taiwan's One Million Star 超级星光大道. I have enjoyed watching this show since the first season. The is similar to American Idol, minus the votes by the public. Instead, this competition is based on the judges' decision.
To me, this show is awesome. It is not only entertaining, but the standards are very high. The quality of this show is just superb. I dare not compare it to American Idol but in my opinion, it's on the same level. Although the competition is based in Taiwan, but they hold auditions around the world. I think.. Contestants come from every part of the world. Australians, Americans, Malaysians, Indians, you name it! As long as you're able to converse in Mandarin, you're up for the show.
Another interesting segment of this show is the PK part. PK is something like a 1 to 1 battle. In this case, a contestant from the competition has to compete with a person which is from the public. The non-contestant can be any person, good or bad. It's by luck. The remaining contestants pick their person-to-battle through the lucky dip.
Because of this show, the Asian entertainment industry had indeed bloomed, as many talented people were discovered through this show. lemme show you some..
Season 1 winner, Yoga Lin 林宥嘉. I have no idea how this man sings. His voice is like seriously MESMERIZING. He make make a boring song, UN-BORING.
Yoga has several albums. Go buy. It's worth it.

Anthony Neely aka 倪安东. Yeaps. he's not a chinese. I think he's from the States. He joined as one of the PK, beat many many contestants. The judges were blown away, I was blown away. by his choice of songs. He sang 'Can't take my eyes off you" like a bird! I actually cried when he sang it. hahahahaSo this Anthony Neely dude now has his own album, and has done tons of advertisement. Believe me, if he didn't join OMS, he might just end up being a normal uni student.
萧敬腾!!!!!aka Jam Hsiao. Based on the exclamation marks, you get the point. I LIKE THIS DUDE!!! He's not handsome and all but he can REALLY sing. And he can sing English songs like a pro. And and and and, he can sing ROCK! and and and, he has a MOLE!!!!
Okay, I know you get the point ahaha.

So, you get the idea how amazing this show is? In fact, it has it's own Susan Boyle!

Lin Yu Qun, like Anthony Neely was not a contestant of the show. He came in one day during PK. I think the contestants at that time weren't at all intimidated by him, until he sang. All was blown away. How can a boy like him, sing like that?!If Simon Cowell met him, I bet he would have the same Susan Boyle shock, maybe BIGGER. This guy can blow off a Whitney Houston number without sweating!
And now he has his own album. aisehh..
Here's his big come out 0___0
I think these people here proved that One Million Star is a big success. IT IS!! Google it if you're interested. =D
Okay. My nose is running like tap water. See ya!
