Previous week the female Anugerettes had performed so well that I had mentioned the male contestants need to step up their performance tonight but sadly it didn’t. As more and more neutrals choosing their favourites I’m sure the atmosphere in the theater is deafening with vociferous support from different camps and the best way to listen to them sing is at home on TV.

Starting the event with the announcement of the results for the female Anugerettes. As expected Nora, Kunjung and Sarah had to be continuing their journey in Anugerah 2009 and gladly they did. Two contestants had to leave and they were, Yanie and Asilah. All the best to both of them in the future. Hopefully they will get better out of this show and be prepared to be called up for wildcard round.

I can confidently say, Anugerah 2009 could produce the best vocal performer in the history of this competition and it’s going to be a woman winning it after so long. Tonight’s performance simply made me believe that Singapore actually has good female singers waiting to stand up and be counted.

I personally find that the ladies will be much better than the men since the start of this competition simply because only the ladies are capable of making me point out who could be a potential star in this competition. Tonight all Suria viewers will agree with me when they saw what they did just now. They managed to outperformed and out shown all the male Anugerettes from last week show.

First, a big thank you to Suria for bringing back Anugerah to the screen this year. Personally, its the best reality show for the Malay community ever. Every time trying to improve on flaws but aiming for perfection is what Suria has to do every season. This year with 1000+ contestants for audition, I feel we can at least find gems in the rough so here comes the Top 20 tonight doing their best to impress voters with 42-45 seconds of opportunity only. (Thank you Maman for timing and taking note of this).

I would have preferred a longer timing for each Anugerettes (that’s what Suria label the contestants) since 45 seconds don’t really give an impact or enough time for the viewer to evaluate on who to vote. Furthermore the voting time is shorter for this episode so it would be great to have a longer show but I don’t think Suria has that slot so we have to make do with what they have to offer.
