Opened my school email just now to find this in the inbox... Must say it's a very very interesting request...
makes u wonder doesn't it? Do our "winners" win because they have the talent, or do they win simply because they have more people behind them? People who don't even know them, but judge based simply on an impression through email, TV, newspapers, SMS even...
I wonder if a certain polytechnic did something like this during our Singapore Idol finals...
p.s. I deleted the name of the 'star' from the email, just so I don't do any publicity for this person by accident...

Dear MAE Students, Alumni and Colleagues,
I reckon you may have heard and watched the trailers on the Channel U “Project Superstars”. It is a chinese singing competition, akin to Singapore Idol, with its sms and call-in voting format broadcasted over Channel U. One of our students, XXX, chinese name: XXX has emerged as one of the top 12 guys (there're top 12 gals as well), after 3 rounds of auditions from over 4000 contestants.
His first performance will be broadcasted on 22 June (precorded on 15 June) and the voting line (or SMS) will be open then.
The contestants will have many people rooting for them. As part of the MAE family, I am writing to encourage you to support our very own “star” XXX. Turn on the TV Channel U on 22 June and register your support!
Thanking you in advance!
Sub Dean (Alumni)
