Top stars at awards show
Some of Asia's biggest names will be gracing the upcoming fifth Global Chinese Music Awards (GCMA) at the Bukit Jalil Putra Stadium on Sept 3.
They include Hong Kong's Eason Chan, Hacken Lee and Sandy Lam, Taiwan's Jolin Tsai and Wang Lee Hom, Singapore's JJ Lim and Malaysia's Penny Tai, Fish Leong, Nicholas Teo and Yu Heng.
The list was revealed by local Chinese radio station 988's head of programming Lim Tok Peng and head of advertising and promotions Yap Lai Peng.
“The awards aim to encourage and reward Chinese artistes. With the GCMA, communication and exchange of ideas among Chinese music artistes have really opened up,” Lim said at a briefing held at Star Rfm's office yesterday.
Awards would be given for 18 categories, including Best Male Artiste, Best Female Artiste, Best Newcomer, Best Group and Best Duet.
The winners were determined based on the number of online votes received.
Fans had cast their votes from July 25 to Aug 15.
The five Best Male Artiste nominees were Jay Chou, Wang Lee Hom, Eason Chan, Wu Ke Qin and Lu Yi while the Best Female Artiste nominees were Stephanie Sun, Fish Leong, Jolin Tsai, Joey Yung and Gigi Leung.
“China put in the most online votes, followed by Malaysia and Taiwan,” Lim said. “Surprisingly, listeners from the United States came in fourth.”
