Gan’s the one

By SETO KIT YAN the Star online

Gan Wan Chean, who is noted for her androgynous dressing and inclination to render songs originally sung by male singers, has emerged as the Astro Star Quest 2008 champion.

WHEN Gan Wan Chean was named winner of Astro Star Quest (ASQ) 2008 at Genting’s Arena of Stars on July 26, there was more reason to celebrate. Not since Winnie Ho emerged champion in 2000 has there been a female winner of the annual star search TV show.

Since its debut in 1996 as Astro Talent Quest (ATQ), the popular singing competition has unearthed many new talents, mostly male. The most successful to date are regionally acclaimed singers like Taiwan’s 19th Golden Melody Awards 2008 Best Male Mandarin Singer Gary Chaw (ATQ 1999 finalist) and MTV Asia Awards 2008 Favourite Artiste Malaysia Nicholas Teo (ATQ 2002 winner), who are both based in Taiwan.

Gan Wan Chean, winner of Astro Star Quest 2008, is the competition’s first female champion in eight years.

The 18-year-old from Seremban impressed judges with her talent at re-interpreting songs and won the attention of Lin Qionglong, the managing director of recording label Mainstream Music Beijing. This led to the label’s Malaysian arm signing her as a recording artiste during a press conference held the day before the finals of Astro Star Quest 2008.

Gan said although her performance at the finals was her best yet, she had not expected to win. “I was quite shocked as I never thought I’d even be in the top two, much less win. But, I feel very happy that the judges chose me so all my hard work has paid off.”

Gan was grateful to her parents for their support. “They had never even heard me sing before I entered the competition. It was after my SPM, so they thought I’d just go and try out at the open auditions for fun. My father first heard me sing during round three of the competition.”

The tomboyish singer with short-cropped hair quickly became known as much for her often androgynous dressing as for her inclination to render songs originally sung by male singers.

Her transgender appeal is reminiscent of mainland Chinese singing competition Supergirl 2005 champion Chris Li Yuchun, who was recently named MTV Asia Awards 2008 Favourite Artiste China.

During the final round of competition, Gan warded off stiff competition from hot favourite Debbie Lim and eventually overtook her by one vote as the two competed in the free song, unplugged and duet segments.

What gave Gan the extra boost to edge out her strongest competitor and clinch the ASQ 2008 title? “I’d say it’s probably because I was not as nervous and had less to think about. She (Lim) was under a lot of pressure.”

Lim, whose brother Eric (winner of Astro Talent Quest 2001) was also a special guest artiste, was under tremendous pressure to perform well as she had won a singing challenge at One Million Star in Taiwan last month. Gan, who was also sent to take part said that the trip was a very good learning experience.

“It changed everything for me. I was nervous there but I learnt a very important lesson from the contestants. Their focus was on giving a good show rather than competing with their rivals. So, they really enjoyed their performances.”

Her song choices in the ASQ final included her EP song Hao Bu Hao and Harlem Yu’s upbeat tune Xiao Mi Feng (Little Honey Bee). “I heard one of the participants sing the fast number at One Million Star and I really liked it the first time I heard it. It’s fun and quite my kind of song so I picked it.”

The ASQ 2008 champion walked away with cash and prizes amounting to about RM180,000.
Gan, who developed an interest in music and the arts since young, says she was glad she could do what she enjoyed best.

She will be performing at MY FM’s 10th Anniversary celebration show tomorrow and Sichuan Schools and Families Rebuilding Fund Charity Concert (Aug 15), both of which will be held at Genting’s Arena of Stars.

三甲勢奪全球新秀冠軍

發布會
三甲勢奪全球新秀冠軍


日期:14/10/2008
時間:2.15PM
地點:Astro
事項:《Astro新秀大賽2008》三甲赴港參賽
報導:朱燕芬







朱浩仁(左起)、顏莞倩和林淑晶要同奪冠軍!
《Astro新秀大賽2008》三甲顏莞倩、林淑晶和朱浩仁要締造“3冠軍”歷史性成績?!

本周五就要赴港參加《2008年TVB8全球華人新秀歌唱大賽》的3人,目前已做好近80%準備以迎接各國歌唱好手的挑戰。問他們此行“最少”要拿個什么獎回來?沒想到朱浩仁想都不用想就說:“要拿冠軍,要對自己有信心嘛,相信每個參賽者的最終目標都是要拿冠軍……所以我們3個都是冠軍!”果然具初生之犢不怕虎之勢!

不同于上回到台灣參加“星光大道PK賽”有工作人員陪同,這次3人可是要相依為命,自己照顧自己,再加上這次他們是頂著三甲人馬身分出征,要準備的歌曲亦更多,心情和壓力難免更大。

顏莞倩就說,她有請教上屆的陳曉燕,對方告訴她赴港前一定要先做好充分準備,屆時才有能力見招拆招。“我目前的情況還好,會以平常心看待。”

反之,林淑晶“該”會是比較有壓力的一個,皆因過去亞軍人馬如陳勢安、王明麗等都拿了個冠軍回來,而她之前又是“大熱門”,相信很多人將會把注意力放在她身上。

不過林淑晶就表示,她原本沒想過這問題,只是旁人會不斷問她同樣問題,但她個人就認為,比賽沒人能控制,她唯一能做的就是相信自己,努力做好本分。“目前生病著,是蠻擔心的……但希望能托他們(前輩)的運氣,到香港會有好成績吧。”

林淑晶:無底洞、新不了情(半決賽)/愛上一個不回家的人、防空洞(總決賽)

林瓊瓏大膽預言女版周傑倫顏莞倩


記者會林瓊瓏大膽預言女版周傑倫顏莞倩
日期:29/9/2008時間:6.10PM地點:The Curve Heaven Cafe事項:林瓊瓏《22排A座》記者會報導:林芷鈴攝影:楊書其

顏莞倩送一壺酒給恩師林瓊瓏,除了喻意老師如酒,越久越醇,也希望他身體愈健康。林瓊瓏再出專輯,其實是為了目前兩位得意門生(陳仁豐及顏莞倩)鋪路。記者會上,林講陳與顏多過談自己的專輯,其中最驚爆莫過于大膽預言:顏莞倩將是女生版周傑倫!
林瓊瓏提到現今新人,台灣他只看好獨立音樂歌手盧廣仲,中國雖有很多新人,但都不夠出色,除了胡彥斌;並指李宇春、周筆暢等人,在歌唱比賽結束后,都沒法展現光芒。
“大馬這幾年有很多優秀的新人,10個手指頭都不夠用,陳仁豐是其中一個,他被訓練得很完整,人的品質和在創作方面的修為都很好,是非常好的人才,發光發熱是指日可待。他11月22日就會在台灣發片。”
“在Astro新秀比賽我看到一批新的生力軍,像豪仁,也有不錯的一面,但我特別強調自己是非常喜歡顏帥莞倩,我看到她的是背后的潛能,我大膽地預言,如果在女生方面有一個像周傑倫,她會有機會,我會往這個方向推廣她。”
至于他會如何打造顏為女生版周傑倫?他說,在他門下的歌手都需會創作,而他們已經在密練顏。他更不停讚顏資質非常高,學習及吸收能力很強,並要求顏在第2張專輯需有自己的創作,目前他們已開始為顏錄製首張EP,希望她趕上明年在中國演出的列車。
詢及顏都未開始(出片)就定下大目標,不怕給顏很大壓力嗎?“壓力不是壞事,有壓力,人會變得更細膩,更快速成長,這沒有什么不好,至少她很清楚她未來要干嘛。”
為愛徒復出

在音樂會上聽到3位小朋友演唱《多年以前多年以后》,林瓊瓏亦忍不住上台合唱。林瓊瓏出道22年,但這15年來都在幕后發展,他會再“跳出來”,是因為他發現中國市場可接受Live式音樂,他並不預期唱片能大賣,以他現時的地位及年紀,期望專輯大賣只是自欺欺人而已。
“我本來就喜歡在Pub唱歌,不喜歡上電視玩遊戲,現場演唱讓我確定我是一個音樂人,往后不止是我,還有魔棋音樂其他歌手,都會以現場演出性質出擊(輯),我們要告訴大家,我們是玩真的(音樂)。”
他續指,單從10月至明年2月,他已在中國接了55場的演唱會,而他就會帶著兩位愛將,即陳仁豐與顏莞倩巡迴演出。“至少到明年,我都會帶著公司小孩一起玩音樂,等他們表現成熟后,我就退居回幕后,再由陳仁豐與顏莞倩去帶師弟師妹,一直傳承下去。”
