From March 2003, auditions started in three countries, Singapore, Malaysia and China to search for Chinese language-speaking acting talent.
Each of the 3 countries selects 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.
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.
Guest starring: Chew Chor Meng as Ah Bee from Don't Worry Be Happy & Lobang King, and Hong Huifang as Pan Jinglian from Viva Le Famille and A Toast of Love Guest starring: Huang Wenyong as Huang Jinlai from Don't Worry Be Happy & Lobang King, and Li Nanxing as Ah Bao from The Vagrant In conjunction with celebrations for MediaCorp TV’S 40th anniversary, the 12 finalists will also regale us with famous songs from the 4 decades.
