(:: happy that aijia did really well todayyy (;
- I am happy for Aijia too. Having a good performance onstage means the competition still have things to look forward to. The same goes to the rest of the contestants - I still look forward to better things for all the top 4.
Someone: D: I feel that it`s a pity that Joselin got out .. she's really talented IMO. & like the last judge said, she`s one of those who improve a lot each episode.
- I am a little saddened about Joselin because a lot of people have been telling me how talented Joselin is and I was really waiting for that to happen. Unfortunately, she did not seem to grasp her opportunities well and kept on giving a series of below-par performances. If she was holding back anything, it was not exactly a wise decision.
passerby: hi there, i just feel that jiamin should not even venture beyond her strengths, now it jeopardises her chances of staying in the competition.. i dun get what u mean by a singer should explore different genres.. the purpose of the competition is to stay in it right.. why do something that will harm your own chances?
- To qualify as a Superstar, one must be daring to attempt new things, challenge one's limits and breakthrough future performances to surprise, excite and intrigue audiences. From Campus Superstars Season 1's Ng Chee Yang, Teresa Tseng, Campus Superstars Season 2's Shawn Tok and Keely Wee, all of these seniors did what they could to show judges and audience that they were willing to take calculated risks onstage to show versatility as a Superstar.
If Jiamin had tried to play her safe cards last night, I would not hesitate to give a straight 6.0 (a fail grade) because her fear to try out new things would mark her as a timid contestant. Although she did not exactly fare well, I believe the audience were impressed enough to give her the swing votes to help her through (which did happen).
pb: indeed, if jiamin is voted out this round, i dont see the need to watch this program anymore, ha.
passer: yeah.. i feel that jiamin if voted out, no need watch css le...
fan: ya lor, agreed..
- I personally believe that the Campus Superstars 3 is not about Jiamin, but about contestants who are willing to make enough sacrifices and improvements to stay on the competition. Jiamin could have been voted out last night but survived marginally. All the contestants have their due strengths and weaknesses so I am not too quick to label anyone as critical to the continuance of the competition. Aijia, Jarod and Mavis may still make significant breakthroughs to over-run the current lustre of Jiamin.
passer: hurray... jiamin not out.. rachel LIM OUT
- I am not exactly happy that Rachel Lim was out last night because although her enunciation definitely needs more polishing, she was one of the contestants who were constantly making genuine attempts to improve themselves, daring to take on new styles of singing, presentations and still graciously accept tough criticisms, braving close elimination again and again without breaking into pieces. She might not have been the most vocally-talented contestant but she was a very memorable and sincere contestant onstage.
YL: hmmm sean, how you feel abt the top 4 for this season? btw, will there be com nxt mon? how many pple they gonna eliminate? thnks!
- I think perhaps I can do a separate blog post about the strengths and weaknesses of the top 4 contestants. There is definitely another round of competition but I don't know how many would be eliminated. Could be one or two, depending on the organizers' intentions for the Grand Finals. For now, I must say the top 4 are a very interesting group for Season 3 so next Monday would definitely be a worthwhile round to watch.
