Ikon singing competition

Woah!! Yet another reality singing contest. It appears that people are just so enamored with all of these realtiy singing contests that they just can't get enough of. Why? Anyway, to give you a little background on this, according to Wikipedia...

“IKON Malaysia is a reality singing competition which searches for a champion among existing or established artistes rather than among new, unknown starlets as in other such singing competitions.“

So basically there are three countries participating in this contest. (Malaysia, Indonesia, and of course the Philippines). Each countries have their own individual contest to see who to send to this big singing contest. There will be a solo artist and the other will be a group. Winner of that contest will get a trophy (naturally) and $25,000. And of course bragging rights. But the obvious reason would be is awarness. This contest will be shown to several millions of people and whether you win or lose, there will be people out there who will buy their album.

Anyway, the Philippines has finally choosen their representative three days ago. The competition ended with Vina Morales and Kjwan who will be competiting. Beating out Sitti, Skarlet and Kala and Truefaith.

The ASEAN finals will start this Sunday, August 12 in Malaysia. So stay tuned folks to see who will prevail. I'll keep you posted as soon as I hear anything. But this would be very interesting to see. No amatuers here. Strictlyprofessionals.
